I mean, really, how ...             Night of Thunder: A Bob Lee Swagger Novel (Bob Lee Swagger Novels) Stephen Hunter Simon & Schuster, 2008 Hunter a terrific read, as always Just finished Night of Thunder, practically in one sitting: as with the previous eleven Hunter thrillers, I enjoyed myself immensely.

One small quibble at the end when our hero talks ...             The House at Sugar Beach: In Search of a Lost African Childhood Helene Cooper Simon & Schuster, 2008 A powerful memoir Helene Cooper's memoir of growing up in Liberia is one of those books that you just can't put down.

It was a nice ...             The War Within: A Secret White House History 2006-2008 Bob Woodward Simon & Schuster, 2008 Recommended Reading Our decision to go to war with Iraq needs to be understood by all of us.

Cramer Simon & Schuster, 2005 Believe it or not, Cramer can make you a better investor. Having read several investment books, this book is a much needed shot in the arm in that it opens the doors to the type of independent thinking that the mutual fund industry doesn't want individual investors to engage in. Cramer's book encourages readers to move beyond ...             Assassination Vacation Sarah Vowell Simon & Schuster, 2006 This book rocks! I usually don't write reviews, but when i saw that this book didn't have 5 of 5 stars i was shocked! I loved it.

Jacobs Simon & Schuster, 2008 As a self proclaimed agnostic... As a self proclaimed agnostic, I have no clue what led me to pick up this book in an airport. But I'm hooked, and I've probably learned more about the bible then some that are "religious". In a fun, nonthreatening, no fire and brimstone, low key way.
