Summer Reading
So it’s time to kick back, relax and enjoy the summer for what it’s worth. The summer is here with endless adventures waiting around every corner and sizzling summer days accompanied by mild sweaty nights. Here are a few of my favorite books that are probably best for checking out and enjoying during the summer.
Fight Club- the book that made fighting popular again. Check this is out because it’s not exactly the same as the movie and may even inspire you to get a little more out of your summer than you ever thought.
Devil in the White City- A nonfiction book on history of the World’s Fair in Chicago along with a serial killer set in the 1890’s. About as accurate as you can get for a historical book with the most descriptive story telling from a time period that is lost in time.
Will Storr vs the Supernatural- Wondering what lies after the end, is there a beginning to the end? Will Storr surely puts on a great show as he explores all aspects of the supernatural that surrounds all us in.
Over the Edge of the World- One of the best researched and written accounts of Ferdinand Magellan circulation around the world as the first European. The numerous journals, and historical papers used to put this work together make this story come to life, making it an experience as genuine as being on the ship itself.
Rant- A twisted new look at the future with time travel being thrown in the mix. This book takes on a different way of story telling as it uses oral biographies from others associated with the main character to get the story across.
Afghan Campaign- Alexander the Great stormed across nations taking control with such ease never before seen. He would soon reach Afghanistan and this is a personal account of one soldier’s side of the story as he tries to cope with remaining moral and surviving in this strange new world himself.
Pirate Hunter: The True Story of Captain Kid- Probably one the best-researched accounts of who many consider one the most notorious pirates ever to sail the world. Although the research may shock many pirate fans, its in-depth accounts give someone a true look at the world of piracy.
