    Just finished Alone on the Wall by Alex Honnold. It was really good. I definitely recommend it.

    I read Lincoln Highway a few weeks back and thought to share that book on here. Great adventure book. The Devil in the White City was good too. I think its being put on the screen with Keanu Reeves in it. Story is pretty interesting with some historical elements to it.

    Currently I'm reading The Last Mrs Parrish and its thrilling so far.

    Aiming to read 75 books this year or at least go past the number of books last year :)

    I read again a bunch of Clive Clusser books . I read all the different series books of his.

    Next up Tom Clancy .

    Since I tend to read an easy 8 plus hours a day to distract from the pain.

    Wow they are all good and can be read as a stand alone book.

    To me starting with the first books written in the series makes things easier to follow and understand having a back ground . I bought them as they were released .

    The Dirk Pitt books was what got me started !! A government Agency NUMA to study the worlds oceans

    Then I really enjoy the Oregon Files a super spy ship disguised as a old freighter .

    The Isaac Bell Series set in the very early 1900`s if your into that time period the exploits of The Van Dorn Detective Agency

    I hope that helps ! Then again it might not be your taste.

    I read SON, just cause everyone here knew about it and I wasn't alive when it happened. Otherwise I'm mostly reading technical articles and listening to Graphic Audio books (they make more interesting audiobooks by having a full voice acting cast and sound effects)
