The Kite Runner. It's excellent so far, and I'm ripping through it. Also rereading Macbeth, since I'm teaching it for the first time in quite some time. [Reply]

The Kite Runner to me had the best writing i have seen in a book.
Best writing ever in my opinion.
I kept reading good things about this book, but i felt the subject did not interest me. I needed a quick summer book so i bought it.

And I did buy it (Shaara's The Rising Tide), with a gift card I got for Christmas. But I'm currently reading an extremely long and detailed biography of Benjamin Franklin. [Reply]

I'm reading History of Pirates: Blood and Thunder on the High Seas by Nigel Cawthorne. So far I'm not that impressed, although I'm only a couple of chapters into it. How is yours? [Reply]
