Hey all...I recently have gotten back into reading a little bit.   Haven't really enjoyed doing it since I have been a kid, but for some reason it has sparked my interest lately.   

I was wondering if any of you have read any great books that you can recommend?

I just finished Don Winslow's "Power of The Dog" and "The Cartel."   

Both of these I would highly recommend if you are into reading about drug cartels, hitmen, etc.

If you could reply back with a brief description of the book, that would be great...thanks!

It's like a manuscript written by the main character. Harry Haller.
Wikipedia says it better Cheesy

The story in large part reflects a profound crisis in Hesse's spiritual world during the 1920s while memorably portraying the protagonist's split between his humanity and his wolf-like aggression and homelessness.

Just finished:

Gone Girl

I have seen the movie, but wanted to check out the book (I know that is a little backwards).   the book was good, a little different than the movie.

I am also about to finish

"The Kind Worth Killing"

It is pretty decent.


Any other good recommendations from anyone?

I was not a fan of books until this year... Smiley

After I create my facebook fan page I start to read some articles that are related with ancient history, archeology, sacred texts, mysteries and UFO encounters. This was the definitely the trigger!

I have read many books and articles who are related whit the sacred text like the Bible (Old and New Testament), Yoga and Mythology. If you are a fan of this genre, then I will suggest you this:

Thus spoke Zarathustra:
Philosophical novel by German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, composed in four parts between 1883 and 1885 and published between 1883 and 1891. Much of the work deals with ideas such as the "eternal recurrence of the same", the parable on the "death of God", and the "prophecy" of the Übermensch, which were first introduced in The Gay Science.

I was a fan of books as a child, then hated them through school, now I am slowly getting into them again.  I have never actually read the entire bible before...  I have read a lot of books about alien encounters though

Man's Search for Meaning is a 1946 book by Viktor Frankl chronicling his experiences as an Auschwitz concentration camp inmate during World War II.
Great book,trying to find a similar book but the name of it keeps slipping my mind when I am in the library.

The school system is sucks. It makes people what to think instead of what to think! Cheesy

The Bible is a very powerful book and it's full with codes and messages that humanity is still unable to solve them. I will suggest you to start with the Old Testament and read carefully. I am sure that at the beginning, you will feel tired when you will read the books of the Law and the books of History, but believe me that through them you will understand the Matrix. Then you will meet with the books of Wisdom and finally the Prophet's books.

The New Testament is a way of life and before to start with reading I will suggest you that you should read something about Yoga. This knowledge will help you when you start to read the New Testament.

Alien encounters is also connected with the Bible, but keep in mind that you must discover what is the difference between Aliens, Angels and Demons. There are people who research this field and misunderstand this words. Smiley

Steppenwolf by Herman Hesse.
It's one of those really good books you read once in your life.

I love all his books,only tough slog was "The Glass Bead Game" but reccomend "Damien" as his best.
