So here are some recommendations...
- Fantasy:
- anything by Terry Brooks, especially "The Sword of Shannara" or "The Magic Kingdom For Sale/Sold" series.
- His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik - this series has some great historical background and it is an amazing piece of literature.
- The Lightning Thief and other books by Rick Riordan - these are a good read for kids as well, probably ages 8 and up would be my guess.
- Improving Self:
- Secrets of the Millionaire Mind
- Positive Discipline - good for people with kids or planning on having kids or working with kids.
- Sometimes the Magic Works by Terry Brooks
- How to Win Friends and Influence People
- Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance - still reading this but already I'm hooked
- Sci-Fi
- Anything by Ray Bradbury some of my favorites "The Martian Chronicles" and "Fahrenheit 451". Also, "1984" by George Orwell.
- Orson Scott Card's "Ender's Game" series. This is an amazing piece of literature, the authors writing is captivating and believable and simply sucks you in to the story.
- Random Others
- Runaway Jury by John Grisham
- The Green Mile by Stephen King
