"The Charlotte Hornets name has been a mainstay throughout the region for many years, and we are excited to announce our intention to re-establish this historic brand. We believe that its return will galvanize our fan base by unifying our loyal Bobcats fans with those who have strong memories of our city's NBA predecessor." MJ, 5-21-13
Otay guys, I just finished Brisingr. Now I need something I can pick up that I can read in chunks because I can't devote a ton of time to it daily.
One Second After sounds good. So does World War Z. What are some others ones I should look at?
On a similar Post-Apocalyptic vibe, I would recommend "Lucifer's Hammer". The first 1/4 of the book is a little slow but the final 3/4 is great.Originally Posted by SWedd523
Anybody read "Dark Mission"? It is about NASA supposedly faking the Moon Landing?
It's my ADHD to blame. I just tend to always look up from what I'm reading and say, 'Hey, I'd like to get into that,' and off I go picking up that book. Besides those three I listed, there's like 4 or 5 others that still need to be finished off some time. Plus, my comic books, graphic novels, and manga distract me too.
Swedd, anything Joyce is great to read in chunks. All of Ulysses and Finnegan's Wake is nothing but chunks. It's why I love my modernists. Try dos Passos' American Trilogy as it's also "chunky."

I'm currently about 1/3 of the way through a book called The Last Message.
The premise of this story is that a cube with strange markings is delivered to the UN. The cube is made of an element that no one can identify and to make it worse it doubles in weight at the same time each day while remaining the same size. When it was delivered it weighed something like 140 pounds, at my current location in the book its weight has increased to over 2 million pounds. Scientists, Physicists, Biologists are studying it to determine what it is, where it came from and if the daily doubling of weight can be stopped.
If the weight continues to double it will eventually get so heavy that it will sink into the earth's core causing catastrophes... and after that it will get so heavy that the earth will collapse upon itself.
That's what I'm reading
Taras Bulba by Nikolai Gogol. Pretty different from his other stuff I've read. Not really enjoying it as much either.
All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy. Not that original a choice on my part I guess, but whatever, I like it.
I'll have to check out the books you guys are reading. Some of them sound quite good.
i just started world war z and have a book called Patriots: surviving the coming collapse which I actually found from the amazon on the "other books" part after looking up one second after.
Just finished "the Last Message". If anyone recommends that book to you, slap them then walk away.
After finishing that book up. I'm rewarding myself with something that I will surely enjoy
The Planet Hulk saga!!!
Reading comics on a rooted Nook Color FTW
