Books

No Impact Man - Colin Beavan - 4/5. Didn't like it at first, the author was not my kind of guy. But the book grew on me, lot's of good food for thought. Would recommend.

Books

Freakonomics - Levitt - 4/5 - Listened via audiobook. Pretty good, stat heavy (in a good way). He's got it out for realtors. Wouldn't necessarily read again but interesting conclusions.

Born to Run - McDougall - 5/5 - Great running book and a fast read. Good mix of tech/science with the actual story. Will have to see if he's got any other stuff.

3/5 - The Road - Cormac Mcarthy. Ok. Kinda depressing, good father son book. Good one read.

4/5 - Saggiatrius Command - Meluch - Another adventure of the Merrimack, good fun read. Nothing too deep.

Merrimack Book 2 - Wolf Star 5/5 - Quick read, good action.
Accidental Time Machine - Haldeman 5/5 - Kind of a thinker (light thinking) entertaining. Audio.

The Ominovore's Dilema - Micheal Pollan

5/5 - Goes way into the life of corn - the end gets a bit strange, not as accessible as In Defense of Food - would not recommend unless you're already converted to eating healthy.
