Books

Why We Run - Heinrich - 4/5. Slow in parts, but a good read overall. Not as good as born to run, but interesting from the tech side.

Aligator A Go Go - Tim Dorsey - 4/5. More Serge fun, nothing too out of the ordinary, just potato chip fiction.

Rouge Clone - Dent - 4/5. Good fast read, again, nothing special, but potato chip fiction. Will read more in the series.

Books

Spark - Ratey. 4/5 - Brain book. Exercise helps you think. Preaching to the choir but still interesting and a quick read.

Claws That Catch - Ringo - 5/5. Sounded like the last book, but still a few open ends. Overall a quick fun read. Good series.

Lost Fleet: Victorious - Campbell. 4/5. Great series overall, cheesy ending (falling in love, coulda made it happen without the cheesyness). Only one alien battle then what?

The Big Bamboo - Tim Dorsey

3.5-4 out of 5. Funny no brainer read. Same Serge Storms and Coleman. Not as good as some of the others, but entertaining nonetheless.

Book

Strength and Honor - Meluch - 4/5. 4th in the series. Wrapped up the series well, just enough loose ends that they could keep going. A fun series overall, good mix of science and humor. Would consider reading the series again.

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.

Books

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.
