This week I finished up these two by Don Miguel Ruiz and was wondering what books my fellow TRF members have read recently? What are some of your favorites?

Just finished Senator Fracken's latest book. Enjoyed it.

"Indian Country" by Kurt Schlichter. The first book in the series - "The People's Republic" was good also.

Johny · 14 July 2017, 07:24 AM

Just finished The Complaints by Ian Rankin and now reading Transition by Ian Banks.

Hellraiser - Clive Barker. Reading Imajica by the same author now.

I read so much more now that I have a Kindle

tyler1980 · 14 July 2017, 02:46 PM

having young children there is not too much time for books for me. Last night's selection was "Oh, the places you'll go" by Dr. Seuss

Dartmouthbrian · 14 July 2017, 03:03 PM

This is an amazing book... Almost done. Reading it currently.

Not my pic... Stolen from google.

Rock · 14 July 2017, 03:31 PM

Just finished the second volume. Hard going but worth the effort.
A picture of Hell on Earth related with a dry humour that survives the translation - or more to the point survives because of the skilful translation.
An insight into why the Russians are the way they are, and a very sober warning about the kind of world you produce when you stifle free speech and encourage citizens to denounce and inform on each other.

Funny that we read the same book in the same time.

I'm a physical book kind of guy, but I can see why one would prefer an audiobook.

Down and out in London and Paris by George Orwell.

Rock that would be heavy going I remember reading a day in the life of Ivan Denisovich, and it was even more depressing than the Orwell one I just finished.
