What are you reading?

I have made a few blog post about some books I'm really into, and I could post thousands of more blogs about books. I love reading and I'm open to any suggestions.

I posted blogs on The Real Bettie Page by Richard Foster and Modern Vixens: World of Winkytiki by Octavio Arizala. I would also recommend any book by Jim Silke. He has produced books such as Bettie Page: Queen of Hearts, Bettie Page Rules, and Pin-up: The Illegitimate Art. The photos and the art of Bettie Page and other smokin pin-ups are well worth it, let alone the valuable insight and information he gives.

I'm reading Gone With the Wind. I'm about 100 pages away from being finished, and it's definitely one of the best books I've ever read!

I will generally be reading or rereading several books at once.

1. Anabasis, Xenophon (One of the most influential work of Western Civilization.)

2. Cheap: The High Cost of Discount Culture, Ellen Ruppel Shell (Really a well written and well thoughout commentary on our culture.)

3. Breakfast at Tiffany's, Truman Capote (A great novella, but don't confuse it with the movie. It is much darker and more melancholy.)

4. Unfolding the Future of the Long War: Motivations, Prospects, and Implications for the United States Army, Christopher G. Pernin, et al. Rand Corporation Arroyo Center Monograph

5. Unconquerable Nation: Knowing Our Enemy, Strengthening Ourselves, Brian Michael Jenkins. Rand Corporation Monograph

This discussion Teehee...I don't get much time too sit and read anymore unless I'm getting my hair done. So currently my salon favorite is, True Crimes: Crimes of Passion. It's a book of killers who killed their significant others for money, lust, adultery, or because they were just plain sick of them. Kinda gruesome but it helps you loose track of time under the hair dryer.

I have just finished the first five in an excellent classic noir-genre detective series by Philip Kerr featuring Bernie Gunther, which starts out taking place in Germany during the rise of the Nazis. Berlin Noir is a current reprint that includes the first three novels in the series, which he stopped writing for about 12 years, and then started again with The One From the Other and A Quiet Flame. Anyone who likes Dashiel Hammett and/or Raymond Chandler should love this series. I also recently read a very good historical fiction novel about the Fatty Arbuckle rape/murder trial titled Devil's Garden by Ace Atkins.

I just started The Strain by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan, and I'm finishing The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. I'm also listening to The Omnivore's Dilemma on audio! I'll have to check out the Jim Silke titles; they sound very intriguing! If you are into tattoos, I would suggest Bodies of Subversion: A Secret History of Women and Tattoo by Margot Mifflin. It's fascinating!

I just finished reading everything A. Lee. Martinez has written up to now.. I stumbled upon "Monster" a while ago and got completely hooked.. All his stuff is a little Sci-Fi, a little Fantasy and a lot of bizarre (usually monster oriented) humour.
Awesome books.. That I guarantee will make pretty much anybody laugh:) I devoured them all.

The Soulless series by Gail Carriger is excellent as is the Kismet series by Lilith SaintCrow
