what books have you read that you would say was a good read?
http://www.digisal.com/jl//index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=137&Itemid=35 (http://www.digisal.com/jl//index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=137&Itemid=35)So I found myself in a pleasant conversation about I don't know what with a local real estate woman when she noticed The DaVinci Code book on her clients headrest. From there the pleasant conversation turned into a pleasant discussion about books and then movies. I thought it was funny how people with little in common can find common ground in their reading habits. I need to read more books.
I am going to continue reading a book, before I fall asleep writing this, a close friend gave me entitled The Treasure of A Friend by John C. Maxwell. Maybe she thinks I don't treasure her enough. Well, I do.

I highly recommened Dan Brown' The DaVinci Code. Bad arse book that I couldnt put down! Its about a the murder of a museum care taker. Why did he get killed and what was he and Leonardo Da Vinci protecting and hinting at in his Paintings.
after reading that book I read all of Dan Browns books. Five i think. Awesome book.

I read DaVinci and liked it as well... fast paced, well written, great adventure story, and it seemed like they taught you crap while you read it. Nice touch. The Bourne stuff is also good like that - and the movies and the books are not the same thing.

Weave is talking about the Robert Ludlum books; Bourne Identity. I didnt even know the dude was dead. http://www.ludlumbooks.com/
I started reading Hades Factor by Ludlum a few years back when I was working at the airport but never finished it. A few weeks ago I started reading Hades Factor again but then I realized it was the same book from a few years back. I decided I would finish it this time. I read for a good 3 days but then it got to predictable so I stopped despite my efforts to keep reading!
So I am still looking for something to read.
