I found this for a buck:
Apart from "The Swords of Glass", I'm still reading the same books.
I've purchased more books though:
Since I last visited this thread, the books I've read that I'd recommend:
Binti by Nnedi Okorafor - I only read thr 1st part of the trilogy but it's fun sci-fi. I bought the 2nd part, Home, but I haven't started it yet.
The Last Good Kiss by James Crumley - great if you love a good hard-boiled detective novel.
Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain - Goddamn could this guy write. I loved this book. You learn a whole stuff about the inner workings of a restaurant.
Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn - first time I've read one of her novels. Put this one among my collection of favorites in my Kindle when I was done.
Right now I'm about 70% done with Dreamland by Newton Thornburg. Another crime novel. Its a decent read so far.

Because of them I read Queenpin (Megan Abbott) and The Last Good Kiss. Both books were really good. Bought Every Man a Menace, the next book in their podcast book club, but I haven't started it yet.
They have a Tumblr page with some of their recommendations.

Got this in the mail today and started reading it
They should make a movie based on his life. The Great White Hope is fine but they need to make one covering his whole life.

I fukks with Robert Greene's shyt. He's a compilation writer.
Zen: Beginner's Mind is one book that changed my thought process in one reading.
This book was HAAAAAAAAARRRRRRD. If you're into modern crime fiction I highly recommend it. It circles around all of the parties involved in a giant intercontinental drug deal.
