Title: What books do ya'll read
Post by: infinite59 on November 22, 2001, 05:08:48 AM
Yo, right now I'm reading Russell Simmons new autobiography, along with "Soul On Ice" by Eldridge Cleaver, and Maya Angelou's autobiography.  I'm trying to read books written by females so I can learn more about their perspective on life, I'm reading one book for pure enjoyment (the Russel Simmons book) and one book to expand my knowledge and vocab ('Soul On Ice' by Eldridge Cleaver).  Biographies are my big thing..

Biographies I've read:

Snoop's
2pac's- (written by Micheal Eric Dyson)
Malcolm X
Nathan McCall (Makes Me Want To Holler)***fav. book besides 'Celestine Prophecy' by James Redfield  
Chuck D
Sanyika Shakur
Reverand Run
(Got Your Back) 2pac's bodyguards biography

I read anything from the the Buffy and Angel series,
Right now i am reading The Canterbury Tales, By Geoffery Chaucer. My favorite book is Faller Angels, By Walter Deam Mayers, I would have to say that's  one of the greatest Fictional book I ever read. I like to read books on religion and History as well. The News paper is a bit boring so i never really bother with it. thats about it.

Right now I'm reading a couple of books:

Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
The Pearl by John Steinbeck *GREAT NOVEL*
Life on the Mississippi by Mark Twain
Lord of the Flies by William Golding
Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

I'm feelin' them all except Lord of the Rings cause I'm not into that mystical shit. I'm a reality type of guy.

I read To Kill a Mockingbird too. The teacher was racist too and said I reminded him of Tom Robinson. But I told the beety eyed bastard he look like Spock from Star Trek so that shut his alien lookin ass up for a quick minute.
