The kind of stuff I like to read;

Everything Stephen King has written  8)
George Orwell (1984 and Animal farm)
Alot of Robert McCammond and Dean Koontz novels
I'm having a brain fart right now, so I can't remember these authors names (sad, I know), but I enjoyed "Catcher in the rye" and "The old man and the sea" :roll:

Kate Fillion - "Lip Service"
Robin Baker - "Sperm Wars"
Anything by Richard Dawkins, if you can stand heavy-duty evolutionary stuff ("The Blind Watchmaker" is probably the best for the first-time Dawkins reader; "The Extended Phenotype" was the most enjoyable for me).
Antonio R. Damasio: "Descartes' Error"
Steven Pinker: "The Language Instinct" and everything else by him.

Robert H. Bork 'Slouching Towards Gomorrah' is a great one. Chapter 11 is all about radical feminism.


Pat Buchanan's 'Death Of The West' is also excellent.
Openly Straight.
