My goal this year was to read 2 books per month.

So far I have knocked out:

1. Rot n Ruin
2. Dust n Decay
3. Fall of Night
4. Dead of Night

All 4 Zombie Books, same Writer, same Zombie-Verse (which I didn't know at 1st). Really good books.

5. Barrac00n- The Last Black Cargo.
6. House of Evil
7. Billion Dollar Whale
8. King of the World - About Ali, mostly about the lead up to him beating Liston for the Title.

Currently Reading The 16th Round by Hurricane Carter.

This is quickly becoming one of the best books Ive ever read. I do damn near all of my reading at work, this is one of the few books I have gladly read at home.

shyt is like Monster and Mike Tyson's Book Undisputed were combined together. Really, really good. Only about 100 pages in, but from what I can remember about the movie, it doesn't come close to doing this book justice.

Keeping my overhead low, and my understand high
welp...I finally paid my dues and got my library card re-instated...I read 2 books this week...(1.5 really, I'm not done with the 2nd)



The Richest Man in Babylon.

I liked it. It was entertaining in the same way 48 Laws is...

and I'm currently into:



Think and Grow Rich

I don't like this one as much. It's boring to me although it does have some nice gems.

I read so much I can't even keep up of with what I'm reading.

Over the course of the year I've read:

Malcolm X autobio ( not the Alex Haley version, but another one)
Autobio of Jim Brown
Soul on Ice
Growing up Bin Laden
The working poor
I am A Brand
Better decision making
Ishmael
Kite Runner
Finding Peace
Autobio of Fred Hampton
Autobio on Nelson Mandela ( Currently reading)
Proof of Heaven
Manchild in the Promiseland
Pimp ( never finished)

I know I'm missing a few. I try to read everyday!

I just started the one by Manning Marable.

I know some of the info in there is controversial so I've already added one or the books that make a counter argument to my cart in Amazon
