Exams are over, so I have three weeks to read before the final semester grind gets underway. Time to finish up Fromm's 'The Sane Society' and pick up Carrie Gibson's 'Empire's Crossroads'.
 
The New Avengers (a graphic novel featuring Luke Cage and his wife and daughter).

Whiteout by Greg Rucka(it was made into a movie with Kate Beckinsale as U. S. Marshal Carrie Stetko)
Whiteout: Melt(a sort of sequel of the further adventures of U.S. Marshal Carrie Stetko).
 
Heading to the bookstore today! Empire's Crossing by Carrie Gibson and my annual tradition, The Economist's 'The World In (insert incoming year)'

4 out of 5 stars read. Anyone who is a fan of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings or the original Star Wars trilogy may enjoy this. Book one of a 14 book series chronicling the journey of a young farm boy named Rand al'Thor, who discovers he is the long foretold reincarnation of an ancient powerful sorcerer king who is destined to either save his world or help destroy it in an eternal war against the living embodiment of evil & darkness, Shaitan, and his cabal of 13 equally powerful & corrupted sorcerers & sorceresses known as the Forsaken as they attempt to release their imprisoned master back into the world to recreate it in his own image.
 
"Han Mu Do" by Dr. He-Young Kimm

"Killing Patton: The Strange Death of World War II's Most Audacious General" by Bill O' Reilly and Martin Dugard

"Memory Jogger: A Guide of tools for Continuous Improvement and Effective Planning" by Michael Brassard and Diane Ritter
 
The Kushiel's Avatar truology. Found it on best of fantasy list. In all, it was a great adventure with an author that obviously knew ancient history extremely well. Has parts I think were redundant but in all well written and great entertainment
 
Linton Kwesi Johnson 'Selected poems'
Linton Kwesi Johnson 'Mi Revalueshanary Fren: Selected Peoms'
Leonard E.Barrett, Sir. 'The Rastafarians'

Always interested in something different.

Revival is pretty good read.

I've also read a huge box of paperback books someone gave me over the last several months, but none of them were all that post-worthy. They were mostly lame attempts at fantasy and sci-fi...a few were so-so, but most of them were crap.

And that's why they were given away rather than kept for re-reading at some future date. :D

Probably so, because none of them were worth keeping. They were as cheesy as Harlequin romance novels. lol

My mother, her sister, and a couple of other women like to share books, and when my mother has an overabundance on her hands, she passes them on to me. Sometimes they're good ones and sometimes not. She dropped another box off this afternoon, and it looks like more of the same crap. Someone probably got them at a yard sale or something.
