[QUOTE="Gord Lacey, post: 78489, member: 1"] Curious what books other members are reading right now. I have a few series on the go: Reacher - Lee Child's story about an ex-MP who finds himself in trouble. They made it into a movie, with Tom Cruise playing Reacher, which is hilarious because the character is 6'5" and 22-250 lbs. Read the first 3. Parker - Started in the 60s, and has 24 books in the series, it's about a criminal and the various jobs he's involved in. They're quite short (under 150 pages), but packed with some good action. Jason Statham was in a movie (called "Parker") based on one of the books. Others in the series have been made into movies as well, including "Payback" with Mel Gibson (based off the first book, "The Hunter"). Just started the 4th book. The Dead Man - A series of novellas started by Lee Goldberg (a friend of mine), and William Rabkin, it's about a guy who dies in an avalanche and is found alive 3 months later. Now he can see rot on people, and realizes the more rot, the more likely they are to do something very bad, so he decides to intervene. Each book is written by a different author. Done the first 12 (I think). Denis Milne - A cop from London who does odd jobs for criminals. In the first book (The Business of Dying) he kills 3 people and stuff spirals downhill from there. There are 3 books in the series so far, but I've only read the first. As you can see, my series' are mostly around the crime genre. I've read a few one-offs recently, like "A Guest in the Jungle," and "Priceless: How I Went Undercover to Rescue the World's Stolen Treasures" (true story, and very awesome). Besides the series above, I have a few others in my queue, like "Wool" (sci-fi), and some short stories. I've started doing all my reading on my Sony eReader; not only is it nice to carry a ton of "books" with me wherever I want, I find it easier to read on the device. I think it had been about 15+ years since I read a book for fun, and now I've read a ton in the last 6-10 months. I love it. [/QUOTE]
