If you like audo books, listen to Frank McCourt -- Angela's Ashes, Tis, or Teacher Man. He reads them and adding his inflection and accent to these books is fantastic.

Thanks Richard

I added Teachers Man to my list. It's going to be a while, right now I'm knee deep in the Dune series.

If'n you like crime drama and you're a bit of an Eirophile to boot, Ken Bruen is THE man.

If you liked "The Kite Runner"...

by Khaled Hosseini, then you'll have to try his "A Thousand Splendid Suns".

My father just returned to me, read, my present to him, "Team of Rivals" by Doris Kearns Goodwin. Now it's my turn.

Currently in a book funk. Re-reading my Pogo comics anthology by default.

My next book may be Gods and Generals. Wild Trees also looks good; I like reading Preston despite the subjects he chooses.

Audio books: get Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the Great Glass Elevator, both read by Eric Idle. Very fun to listen to with your kids.

William reminded me - I got this for my birthday:



...so that's next on my list.

I've heard great things about "A Thousand Splendid Suns", and really enjoyed "The Kite Runner", so maybe I'll try squeezing that in, too.
