Wolves of the Calla (The Dark Tower, Book 5)
Stephen King
Pocket, 2006
The Wolves of Calla...an excellent addition to the Dark Tower series
This is my favorite book of the Dark Tower series.
I've never been a huge fan of horror (Stephen King's or anyone's else) but the fantasy aspect of this particular series has really caught my attention. And in truth this is much more fantasy than your typical ...

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7)
J. K. Rowling
Arthur A. Levine Books, 2007
Simply brilliant
I waited until about 3 weeks ago to first pick up a Harry Potter book, first thinking they were merely children's stories when I heard of them, and still doubting them even after enjoying the movies. Thankfully, the delay in the release of the 6th movie pushed me to ...

The Catcher in the Rye
J.D. Salinger
Little, Brown and Company, 1991
My favorite book
I am 30 and I just read the book for the first time. I knew about halfway through that it would become my favorite book. I dreaded each turned page because I knew I was closer to the end.

Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits and Other Writings (Wiley Investment Classics)

Wiley, 2003
The Bible of Growth Investing
This book is a timeless classic on growth investment principles and research. Some reviewers have implied that Fisher's painstaking research is not practical and doesn't apply today. Beware, because if you are like Philip Fisher and you don't like diversification, the ...

McCain's Promise: Aboard the Straight Talk Express with John McCain and a Whole Bunch of Actual Reporters, ...
David Foster Wallace
Back Bay Books, 2008
Important to know the context of this book was 2000, not 2008
Given DFW's recent tragic death (and the election timing of this re-release), I'd imagine alot of folks may now discover this book. What Wallace wanted current readers understand about the context, he told the Wall Street Journal in an interview from June 2008. Here's ...

The Drawing of the Three (The Dark Tower, Book 2)
Stephen King
Signet, 2003
Where The Dark Tower Series Really Takes Off
After being disappointed by the first Dark Tower book, "The Gunslinger", I was hopeful that the second installment would entertain me to a much higher tree. Jackpot!
Whereas "Gunslinger" had a little too much storytelling and a little too little explanation, "The ...

Mrs. Dalloway
Virginia Woolf
Harvest Books, 1990
Perfect in every way
In my opinion, this is a perfect book. Woolf captures the characters flawlessly and depicts their relationships with pitch-perfect accuracy. The plot centers around a day in the life of Mrs. Dalloway, who is preparing for a party. However, the overall scope of the ...
