The first book Hounded was very good. I have the next two after Hexed, Hammered & Tricked,which I'll get around to reading sometime within the next couple of months after the long list of other books I have lined up for reading.

My kindle has at least 12 books untouched that I have to get to. So many damn books I wanna read
 
"The Karate Code" by Jesse Enkamp. Ae excellent plethora of wisdom of some of the last authentic living legends of true classical traditional karate. Traditional Karate as in other martial arts are dying, thanks to the West.

"Mindset: The New Psychology of Success" by Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D. An eye opener of a book in that it gives insights on how to rid oneself of limitations, particularly those that others try to hold you back.

"Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation" by Daniel J. Siegel, M.D. I enjoyed this read on developing self mastery in oneself. As a black man I believe this is where the next true revolution that blacks need to develop within themselves (self mastery to achieve anything), unfortunately, the pressures of culture that promote sameness and not uniqueness hampers many.

Sadly, I am in graduate school so I am currently surrounded by school books. I long for the day when I can read for pleasure again.

Can you tell I just broke up with someone? LOL
 
I just watched the think like a man movie this weekend, you will have to tell me if the book is worth reading...:)

Sometimes it is hard to move forward, but just remember the pain from the breakup will propel you into the right relationship with the right person and you will appreciate him so much more.
 
I don't read very much non-fiction these days...sometimes I just need a break from thinking too much...LOL!

I commute on the "El" here in Chicago, so it's a nice time to get some reading done.

I'm now reading "The Best Short Stories of Ring Lardner" (don't ask me why ,except its been on my shelf for about 25 years and I am just getting around to reading it).

Before that, it was "Jubilee" by Margaret WAlker, a Civil War novel about a half white slave finally getting her freedom.

And the one before that was "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair, and if that doesn't turn you into a vegetarian, nothing will!!
