I have finished school more or less and I am no longer required to read hundreds of pages of text per week. As such I want to pick up a new book of my choice. If you have read a great book lately (any topic or genre) post the title and a short synopsis. I look forward to your suggestions.
Thanks in advance beyond.

Blink...by Malcolm Gladwell

Non-Fiction regarding the processing we do unknowingly and that its not always "fluke" that we know what we know...

or this classic- Zen and Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

Fiction. Nothing to do with Motorcycle Maintenance but rather uses a story of a father son trip across the states, exploring classical vs romantic thinking. Great read for do-it-yourselfers and people who like to tinker with things.

I've been reading a lot of fantasy books recently, some book ones from my favorite series':

A game of thrones (a song of ice and fire)

The eye of the world (the wheel of time)

The golden compass (his dark materials)

To be honest facebook is the only book I read, even when I was in school I hardly read the novels we were assigned. Instead I would just read the Coles notes and write my essays and tests based off of those.
