: HodgyBeats May 09, 2012, 02:28:28 AM
Im reading All Hell Let Loose By Max Hastings.


Its 789pages long.


The back.


This is a study of the greatest and most terrible event in history which shows
its impact upon hundreds of millions of people around the world - soldiers sailors
and airmen; British housewives and Indian peasants;SS killers and the citizens of Leningrad; Japanese suicide pilots and American carrier crews.This is a 'Every man's story'.It is an attempt to answer the question:'What was the Second World War like'.

Well I have a whole stack of computer books but the ONLY book I actually read was "Crime and punishment" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fyodor_Dostoyevsky#Crime_and_Punishment) which was a great book.

My latest interest is mycology so for the past couple of weeks I've been reading:

Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms
http://amzn.com/1580081754

I have everything I need to start growing shiitake mushrooms except the mushroom spores (which I'll be ordering soon) and sawdust which my cousin told me he could get me (he's a construction worker).

Deathshead novels are great, I want to read the Songs of Ice and Fire books when I get a solid chunk of time.

I am currently reading (as slightly embarassing as I find it) "Fascinating Womanhood"
-It is a book on how to behave as a Christian woman should. Towards her husband mostly.

I started reading those when I was in middle school, but lost track with all the moving around.

Its called "The Dictators" its a very in depth comparison of Hitler and Stalin and how they got and eventually abused their power. I'm a history buff. :)


 But starting this week I'm going to the library in the hopes of finding some books on programming. Hopefully I can find something not to outdated or advanced.

Story time lol. I hated history lectures, but if it was interesting sometimes.

Even if they are a bit dated, not a whole lot has changed. If your just starting out, you'll still learn core concepts.
