Hello.
I like to read books, but I am running out of ideas for books to read.
I know that the moon has awesome people who probably read awesome books. So, I ask you these questions.
What are your all time favorite books?
Who are your all time favorite authors?

I can't say what my all time favorites are for books cause i'm kind of fickle in that sense, but i did just finish the The Mortal Instruments Series by Cassandra Clare. Very good.

Kurt Vonnegut is my absolute favorite author ever. Every book by him is my favorite book. Some personal favorites are Slaughterhouse Five, The Sirens of Titan, Cats Cradle, and Mother Night.
I also like Chuck Palahniuk (Rant is my personal favorite book by him)
Other good books are Watership Down, Catch 22, Catcher in the Rye, and A Clockwork Orange.
Someone said Lolita. I've read another book by that author and it was pretty good.

I just got a book in some sort of apprentice series. It's supposed to be good. I also got a starbucks coffee while I was at the bookstore.. mmmm white chocolate mocha.
I think the series is called Ranger's Apprentice, anyone ever read it? I'm probably going to start on it later tonight.

Books to read to help end world suck:
Ishmael By Daniel Quinn
The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch
A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle
Fun Nonfiction Books to Read:
Love And Sex With Robots by David Levy
Orchid Theif by Susan Orlean (there was a movie named Adaptations based on this book)
The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins
Fun Fiction to Read:
The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee
A Wrinkle In Time by Madeleine L'engle
(Sorry I read a lot but not a lot of nonfiction)
I must have read about 3 books every month for the past year or so. So if you have any questions or want to discuss books, do no hesitate to contact me. Also, I once was chairman of a bookclub on the moon, but nobody participated in it, except for Rob and someone else, so I decided to just read on my own. If you ever want to run a book club on the moon, just ask me, and I can hand you the password to the twitter account, SPOTMBook
