| Just finished LONE SURVIVOR.. That book was pretty good. Just got started on INTO THE FIRE by MOH recepiant Dakota Meyer. Just thought I would red it becuase he is also a KY boy. Next I think I will read LIONS OF KANDAHAR. I am really into the Afghan War right now. |

I finished 13 Bullets by David Wellington, it was horrible. I was really surprised it sucked because he wrote Monster Island which was amazing. I'm burning through a Hymn Before Battle right now it reminds me a lot of the Halo books. |

True. The first two I read short sections to ponder upon throughout the day. #3 is to learn more about economics, but a dry read. The last two are for my thesis work. |

American Rifle: A Biography by Alexander Rose
I'm about half way through it–– not bad. |
| The Aftershock Investor by Weidemer, Weidemer & Spitzer. The authors predicted the real estate bubble bursting along with other bubbles. They warn of the credit bubble, govt spending bubble, student loan bubble, retirement bubble, dollar bubble (QE 1-3), bursting and everything becoming unhinged. |

Re-reading "A Dance With Dragons" by George R. R. Martin, and wishing he would get off his ass and finish the next book. 
Also picked up "A Twist Of The Wrist II" by Keith Code yesterday, I will probably start on that today as well. |

Just finishing up Aeternum Ray. Great Sci-Fi Read that came out this week. Mind-bending singularity stuff that is oddly easy to relate to. I really like it. Its a great read for Science Fiction fans, especially if you like Asimov or Arthur C. Clark; http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A9G4N62/

Rereading Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets, by David Simon.
Baltimore Sun crime reporter spends a year with the BPD homicide squad and wrote the book that became the TV show. There are even names in the book that show up in The Wire. |

I listened to Steve Hockensmith's Holmes on the Range. A humorous detective novel set in 1892 Montana. Brothers Old Red and Big Red started reading Sherlock Holmes stories and Old Red is enamored with Holmes and starts investigating some ranch mysteries that turn into murder. A neat series with - I think - four books in the series.
Currently listening to The Mark Inside: A Perfect Swindle, a Cunning Revenge, and a Small History of the Big Con by Amy Reading. About an hour in. A Texas farmer in the 1919 is swindled in a con and looks to catch the guys responsible. The amazing thing about a well run confidence scheme is that the victim never knows he has been conned. |
I just finished Vince Flynn's "The Last Man" and I'm burning through Tom Clancy's "Threat Vector" at an alarming rate, love it so far!
