I can't even remember all the books i've read so we'll go with recent stuff.



Just finished "Ecotopia" it was ok, but the ending was a little off.



Now reading, No Logo, Naomi Klein who also wrote Disaster Capitalism book (great book)



Then it's Ron Paul Revolution



Next up will New World Order By Ralph Epperson and then it's time to order more books!!! I'll prolly get most of those done within the next month or so.

Just the one, haha.



I read "World War Z" at some point in time, can't remember when, but I really liked that book, a lot.

"Company" by max barry is a good humorous read,

also "Blink" and "The Tipping Point" by Malcom Gladwell are good ones if you're into the subject matter.

I actually read that one! And Syrup! Neither were nearly as good as Jennifer Government, I'm thinking Max Barry was a one-hit wonder.

I was just about to recommend "Blink". I'm in the middle of that one right now.



In other words, you had me at hello.

I know for sure the next book I'll read, I'm going to try to find it locally this weekend.

I heard an interview on NPR, with Donovan Campbell, author of "Joker One: A Marine Platoon's Story of Courage, Leadership, and Brotherhood".



You can read a long excerpt here, very moving.
