Glock: The Rise of America's Gun
Just finished A Game of Thrones, and now I'm starting A Clash of Kings.
I'm reading Rousseau's, "Reveries of the Solitary Walker," recently. He's so contradictory it's hilarious.
Just about to finish A Storm of Swords in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series. I am absolutely loving it! :D
@SophiaScorpia I've read it once already, and I wasn't particularly impressed with it the first time. But then again, I came to it off of Discworld, desperate for more Pratchett, and was basically hoping that it would be like another Discworld novel (which it's not). Now that I'm reading it again and judging it on its own merits, I'm enjoying it immensely.
The Guns of August -WWI history and AMAZINGLY WRITTEN. The prose is so damn good and actually made me laugh out loud a couple times (shit hasn't started to go down yet. Kaiser William II is just being super embarrassing).
Thinking Architecture- clarity and inspiration. Well written, supplemented with lovely photos.
After a long time planning to read it, George Orwell 1984. Heavy book, not literally.
Rereading The Stranger by Albert Camus. Terrific novel, even if Meursault is a grade-A douche bag.
