I read a lot of "true crime" type genre. Comes along with my profession I guess...it's so utterly revolting what a human being is capable of.
Just finished Cellar of Horror - The Story of Gerry Heidnik and Kids Who Kill (is a must read if you work with troubled youth). Both are excellent books.
I am a book-worm, so I just picked up an older vintage copy of Light In August and The Sound and the Fury by Faulkner.

Let see...
Read the first the first book of RA Salvatore's Orc King Trilogy. Currently reading the first book of "The Last Mythal". Then I'll lead the 3rd book of the Lady Penitent trilogy. Then back to the Dragon Lance novels!
Perhaps I'll start picking up "The Knights of Myth Drannor" at some point and start reading that series. We shall see!
Yes, I like fantasy novels!

I'm reading Twilight now. I just finished Children of Dune, Mordred: Bastard Son, City of Ashes, and some wired warewolf novel. Fantasy readers unite...uhg. Anyway i think the invasion of Czechoslavia happened first but I can't remember for sure. do I get points for knowing that Germany invaded Poland on Sept 1, 1938.

My favorite exit in New Jersey was exit 15E, which led to Rube's and a truckline that I used to work for, back in the early and mid-1980s. And if you go the other way, there are Port Newark and Port Elizabeth, and beyond them, the Campbell's plant where I tok those rotting tomatoes back in 1981. Another favorite is exit 15W, which almost always meant that I was heading home.
Isn't exit 3 down near the bridge to Chester, PA? Yikes, another really tall bridge over water like the Chesapeake bridge east of D.C. on US 50 or south of there over the Potomac on 301.
Reading a book and driving a semi are sort of similar in some respects. It has been 22 years since I last got off of the NJ Pike at exit 15E.
Welcome to the site.

Sounds like a bit of a tough read. I've got one from late in the Great War, (World War I), about an amphibious invasion by the German Navy of several Russian-held islands at the mouth of the Gulf of Riga in the Baltic Sea. The book is entitled OPERATION ALBION, by Michael B. Barrett. I'll let you read it after I am done as sort of the icing on War & Peace.
