I would also add that they think of Harry Potter as the fun content, while school reading is "work". Thus, they wouldn't list it.

I've seen the Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers extended, but not the Return of the King. Either way, the Blu-ray version should make the amazing battle scenes look detailed, vivid, and beautiful.

Batman Begins Up Toy Story 3 Anna and the King Ghostbusters

I'd either take one of the Great Bathroom Books, or one of those books that are a compendium of how to do a number of things.

I'm reading The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell, and am going to be starting Truman by David Mccullough soon after it. Gladwell is doing a fantastic job of creating unique concepts and exploring how social marketing and "epidemics" work. however, it isn't a text you could use a reference...

Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card, Dune by Frank Herbert, Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, Enchantress among the Stars by Mary Louise Engdahl

I love that novel. I'm not a fan of the grim, macrabe story, but this one really hit home. It's portrayal of the nature of evil was chilling.

I read this book when I was younger.It certainly sparked a deeper faith, especially in understanding the different elements. But as I have matured in age and faith, I found it to be shallower, and full of inconsistencies I do think that there are some problems in his theology. Despite my...

I think Help, A bear is eating me! was the best. The rest of the books seemed to sexual in nature for me to even consider.

I am no saint, unless you think of a sinner who keeps trying.

I get the Omaha Herald, and am always up to date. I really enjoy getting a quick update on current events each day. These papers still seem to be doing well.

Xenocide, by Orson Scott Card, :stars5: October Sky, by Homer Hickam, :stars5: Jurrasic Park by Michael Crichton :stars2:

Are there any other Swap.com users here? I recently discovered this website, which trades music, books, movies, and video games 1-for-1, so that you can use your old media to get new media. I've been doing it for 3 months now, and have received many, many excellent books, including Speaker for...

I read it two years ago, and found it captivating. It's ideas changed the way I look at business, politics, and technology. However, I read the first edition, so I couldn't talk about the updates.

I read for both pleasure, education, and a stretching of the mind. I find books make it easier for me to talk to others, and to understand why certain people think the way they do.

I live in Omaha, and it's excellent to see this as a trend. Having men teach them, especially men who they can relate to, will also have a positive effect. Can anyone think of other examples of this kind of program in other states?
