Bumping this for the "Pass the book along, Pass"
I would be in for that. Rarely read them more than once, anyway

@mwlabel Do it Bro.
Awesome thread! Love to read and smoke, extremely relaxing. Read Game of Thrones....didn't realize till book 5 that the rest hasn't been published! Still good read though. Just got done Maze Runner trilogy, was pretty good. Always looking for something new so I'll be checking out some of the titles mentioned that I haven't read yet.

I haven't read Lone Survivor but the book Horse Soldiers is an amazing recount of the Special Forces group that went into Afghanistan in 2001 to help the Northern Alliance fight the Taliban. This was before there was an all out war that lasted....well...still going on now. Really good read.
I highly recommend Joe R Lansdale Hap & Leonard series
Horse Soldiers was awesome! A couple other good books about the recent wars:
The unforgiving minute
Joker One
They Fought For Each Other
All were great.
Currently reading "Roadside Picnic" - classic Soviet science fiction, which inspired the Stalker video game series.

I was slowly reading George RR Martin's "Dreamsongs: Volume I" - a collection of short stories written before Game of Thrones. I've read about half of it and have decided to take a break.

I've read all of the A Song of Ice and Fire (game of thrones) series up until Dance With Dragons, however I just cant bring myself to finish it, especially with the TV series set to overtake the books.

If you liked Horse Soliders, you will definitely like The Lone Survivor. I enjoyed both of them. I haven't read anything in awhile, but do enjoy books along the lines of the two mentioned above. I would be in for the book pass. I have quite a few leadership books (John C Maxwelll), and the like. It's been awhile, but would like to read something new.
to David Sedaris (Thedaris)... That is one hilarious guy! And to No Country For Old Men.Currently reading Ivan's War by Catherine Merridale and A Wrestling Life by Dan Gable (imo the greatest competitor this world has ever seen).
Up next: A Tough Trip Through Paradise by Andrew Garcia (pretty sure that is correct author's name).
A Thousand Splendid Suns is also a good read
If you're a fan of the leadership/self-improvement books, I gotta recommend "The Way of the Shepherd" by Kevin Leman & William Pentak. It is a very short and unassuming book, but it blew me away when I read it. It's one of the few non-fiction books that I couldn't put down (cliché book saying).
