I've been reading a lot at for the whole summer so far. My job allows for me to read a good 3-4 hours (bus and train there and back, plus when I work at the desk or finish my work for the day), so I've done a ton of reading this summer. I reread a couple of Vonnegut books (Mother Night and Slapstick) plus I'm finishing Galapagos again right now. He is definitely my favorite author, incredibly insightful into and hilarious at the same time while revealing his views throughout the his stories. I highly recommend reading any of his books if you already haven't, especially Cat's Cradle. I read Rainbow Six by Tom Clancy (excellent read, thrilling book and the military aspect along with his plot were very well written), Marine Sniper and Silent Warrior by Charles Henderson (deep look into Carlos N. Hathcock, one of the great snipers of the marine core), Dude! Where's My Country by Michael Moore (really opened my eyes to a lot of political wrongdoings I was not aware of), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (an incredible way to send off the fantastic series, I won't say anymore in case you haven't read it yet), and The New Face of War by Bruce Berkowitz (a look into how war will be fought in the new century and how we got to that point, some very interesting advances that I did not know about were very intriguing). I highly recommend all of these books, they kept me entertained while I was reading them. I'm hoping to get at least three more read by the end of the summer, although I don't know what books I will read yet.
