    Among the incredibly boring history and nonfiction titles I'm reading, I've been reading "The Martian" and "Highrise" (both movie adaptations coming out this year) and "Stained with the Mud of Khe Sahn" by our very own Rodger Jacobs (FirstWarrior). I'm using Vance's bookmark while reading the latter because it just makes sense.

    Slowly picking my way through Atlas Shrugged, but haven´t been too good about reading lately. I think I need to find a way to buy more English books in print - I´m mostly relegated to my Kindle here, but my tablet doesn´t call my attention in quite the same way as a book sitting by does.

    I read that when I lived in Vegas. Good book but is a bit outdated.

    Twelve Days by Alex Berenson. This is Alex's latest book. We have a three county library set up that will allow me to order any book in the system.

    Rodger's ( @First_Warrior) book! I cried twice during boot camp, so I should do well through the rest ;) So far very good, it's so intriguing and personal, very brave person to share it with the wold in my opinion! Thank you!

    The Matheny Manifesto

    It is an insightful look into the man's methods and thought process. Worth a read

    Good book.  I am a big Stephen Hunter fan.  Away from his normal Swagger plots but very interesting

    I am not a big reader but need to try and start reading more.  The only books I have really read are the Dan Brown books (The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons, Inferno, The Lost symbol, Deception Point, Digital Fortress).  

    I need some suggestions on something to pick up that might be a similar style that can help me start reading more.
