Band of Brothers, by Ambrose. Only about 60 pages in but so far it's quite good.

UNBROKEN.
WOW! What a story. Highly recommended. It can be a little slow, but the things people are subjected to and survive are just mind-blowing.

I just finished Unbroken as well. It was a great book. Kept me up a few nights making me think how lucky I have been and made me appreciate older folks even more.

Bought a book that had Carrie, Salem's Lot and The Shining all under one cover. It's been years since I read these Stephen King stories. Damn good reads

Just finished The Stand. What a grind.
I almost feel bad saying that it's one of those, "it's more about the journey than the destination" books because I thought the ending was a little weak. Being that it's Stephen King I expected

Just finished American Gods, and I have to say, it was excellent. Very well written and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
