That was pretty excellent. Any more sci-fi recommendations?
Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein is excellent. The movie was way different than the book, so if you've seen the movie, try not to read the book with any pre-conceived notions.

Rendezvous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke is another one of my favorites. It's about a massive cylindrical object (50km long) of unknown origin that shows up in the solar system and the team of scientists that go out to investigate it. Not much action, but some really cool concepts to think about.

Let's see.

Print book-wise I'm currently reading Elfsorrow by James Barclay. You can probably guess the genre from the title. I think I'm about ready for a switch to science fiction, although I have two more books to go in this trilogy (I finished his first trilogy a few days ago).

Audio book-wise I'm currently (re-)listening to The Steel Remains by Richard K. Morgan in preparation for the second book in the series, The Cold Commands. The Dervish House by Ian McDonald is in the hole. Which I suppose would mark the afore-mentioned switch to science fiction.

Picked up at a thrift store an old copy of Burrough's The Land That Time Forgot. An easy, relaxing read .....

I'm not a huge reader. I've been trying to change that. Reading puts me to sleep though. Any tips on staying awake? Maybe some caffeinated tea?

I like to wake up early and read before I start my day. Granted, I read non fiction, and it is to help me be a better person or be more successful.

I like books on CD for the car and I also read myself to sleep at night...easier with some books than others

Yeah. It's hard to not have any preconceived notions because of the movie. I think I'm going to read Ender's Shadow first. Rendezvous with Rama sounds cool too.

For anyone who is a Christian, or struggling with who God is..... Blue Like Jazz is an amazing read.

Actually the whole reason I chose Ender's Game was this picture.
