Picked up Lone Survivor by Marcus Lattrell while in the airport. So far this is a great read.
Yea ive heard good and bad reviews. One of the members at the country club i work at says its really good. and my cousin said it sucked, which isnt surprising. hes a Sargent in the 2nd marine special operation battalion ( unit that replaced force recon) so naturally he thinks SEALs are " a cocky over-rated group of operators that think they are bullet proof" But if you like lone surivor i recommend generation kill ( the book is way better than the series) and also One bullet away by Nate Fick

I read Lone Survivor last week... It was good, not great. I would recommend it though.

I am currently reading; How Football Explains America

I just finished The Match by Mark Frost last night.

Now I need to finish Public Enemies by Bryan Burrough (about the 1933-34 crime wave and birth of the FBI)

At work, I'm reading Hell's Half Acre by Richard Selcer during lunch. It's about the 'unmentionable' district of Fort Worth in the late 19th and early 20th century.
