Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. I read it on a whim. I'm not a big science fiction fan, but this was an outstanding book and an easy read. Highly recommended.

Currently reading White Guilt by: Shelby Steele and Why Do I Love These People? by: Po Bronson.

Hope this helps...

"Automatic wealth for grads... and anyone else starting out" by Micheal Masterson. All I read are business books, if I'm going to read anything at all it might as well be something to help me better position myself and my way of thinking for better things.
