That was a pretty good read. I'm not typically a fan autobios but it was given to me for Christmas. Definitely a real eye opener and a sad story in the end.

Hadn't heard of it but just looked up on Amazon. Sounds interesting. Let me know what you think when done.  Oh, and in line with the thread: I'm in the middle of Chancellorsville by Stephen Sears. |

On a whim decided to pick up "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan
I have never read any of his books but love the quotes I have seen from him and was having a conversation with my daughter about her astronomy class the other day and he came up as a reference.

Agreed Hadn't heard of it but just looked up on Amazon. Sounds interesting. Let me know what you think when done. Sublime. Witty in some spots, dreamy, depressing, joyful, and funny all around. At times it seems aimless, however, each individual written about is there for a reason. |

Great book "Truth, justice, and the curious case of Chris Kyle" by Michael McCaffrey.
Very interesting read as well. The Ventura story wasn't in the version of American Sniper that I just read. |
