Great read. I've been diving into learning more about cancer lately (family reasons), but this is a great narrative...you don't have to be all that interested in the topic to enjoy it.

Spent the last three days just a few miles to the west of Fort Apache & the White Mountain Apache Reservation, I thought it was a good time to start in on a book I'd received for Christmas:



Interesting read so far; Davis was the head of Indian scouts during campaigns to capture or kill Geronimo in Arizona & Mexico.

Just started on Wolves of the Calla by Stephen King.
I have literally read EVERYTHING else by Mr. King but only just started reading the Dark Tower series.

After that, I have 5 or 6 more books that I was given as Christmas presents to go along with my shiny new Kindle Fire.

ZLT- I think I've said it before but I'll say it again. In the last book of the DT when SK says if you like the ending please stop here.  PLEASE STOP HERE.  Not worth it to read the rest.

I know you will (everyone does) but try not too.  Wish I wouldn't have.

Getting the reading bug back.  Finally. 

Recently finished "The brief wondrous life of Oscar Wao" by Junot Diaz, and Keith Richards' autobiography.

Currently reading:

   "Profit before people" by Noam Chomsky (incredible....the intro alone changed my view of our world)

    The God who is there" by Francis Shaeffer

Just glad I'm interested in reading again.   I already bought another Chomsky book and I'm barely into the first.
