Open mind

Thanks to all so far.

Narkissos: You (sort-of) didn't mention Siddharta because it was already mentioned.

Please don't worry about that. In fact, I'd like to see some recurring titles in order to help select my next few reads.

Life's too short for bad books (or wine).

Open Mind

John Doe

Mrs. Jones, you're in for a treat with book six. King actually is a character in his own novel, meeting and talking with two of his characters. Very interesting and creative.

John Doe

Hmm, I would have to say two the come to mind right away are Huckleberry Finn and Kafka's The Trial. Of course it all depends on what mood I'm in.

Tao te ching - oh man, how could I forget that staple of a book. thanks Narkissos

bigdreax - my husband just read "art of war" and it looks so good. I'll read that one next....

yeah freedom, it's not what most people think. the overall theme i can tell so far, is how to win wars without fighting. of course, if battle is unavoidable, it tells you how to kick butt. lol figuratively, not physically. it's not advocating violence.

The Power of Now - I have the audiobook

The End of Faith and Letter to a Christian Nation, both by Sam Harris.

Night - by Elie Wiesel (read this 10 years ago and still recommend it)

Waiting to Exhale - Terry McMillan
