Have you read any good books lately??
I go to the Library and scan the shelves....I stand and look side to side, up and down and back......I check my watch and realize that I've been here ''too long'' and I still don't have a book.....so I pick one that 'looks good.' Some are great reads. Most, I get into and realise that I don't want to read them.......too this or too that.......never jude a book by it's cover....or, as I have found, by it's title. Some good suggestions have been The Stand by Stephen King.... it could happen....lol.... The Celestine Prophecy.... A Catcher in the Rye....(Rings way too true.......hey, i am what i am......)
So anyway... all genres are good.
My question is Have you read any good books lately??
lol....two of my favorites.
Great forum topic ... so I'd like to add Richard Bach's 'One' and 'Illusions'. Also a book written in the 70's(?) called Tracks by Robyn Davidson, about her solo trek across the Australian desert with her camels. Anything by Robert Fulgham is easy but interesting reading.
Hmmm, I'll have to check the bookshelf!
I've wanted to read Catcher in the Rye but havent as yet, has anyone else and if so what did you think of it?
love and joy

i liked catcher in the rye. it's pretty pessemistic but there is something very ''real'' about it. i find that i am a catcher in the rye.....lost.....
when i was in highschool there was an uproar because it had been banned from high schools. supposedly because of homosexuality......but really it's because he says g/d every breath.....but if that was taken out of the book then it would dim the character developement. it's not an uplifting book......no great spirituality.....but it's a good one.
i liked it. lol
like i said.....no deep spirituality or inspiration......but i do like it....lol
How's about Nick Cook's "The Hunt for Zero Point - Inside the Classified World of Antigravity Technology" http://www.americanantigravity.com/nick-cook.html

And for an electronic copy of "Peace Pilgrim" to read at your computer

Greetings TT members
Here is a great place to read free ...most of the important literature on different religious texts...as well as many others...my two favorites are
Life and it's Mysteries
The Eternal Career
both by Frank Hammer....both located under New Thought catagory at Sacred-Texts....
if children were allowed to read these two books, their lives would be changed forever, as they give guidance about life...and death...and solves the mysteries related to same...or at least they give a novel approach that should be considered
I found them to be the best books I read last year...hope you do too....they only take a day to read....a day well spent !!!!
