| Not like any of you will really care, but I need some posts, so whatever. If anyone wants to reply, talk about this book, its author, or just say something about a book your reading. Give a review if you want.
I am now reading a treatise on war. It is Machiavelli's Art of War, and it is considered to probably be one of his best works. He has some interesting things to say about the nasty business of waging an effective war, and I find it to be...educating. I am still reading the first book, but I look forward to finishing it. | |

| The Art of War should not have been in a book cause the Art of War is plain and simple

| ...Your forgetting the tactics part; the global and theater strategy part, development of weapons part, the political part, the acquisition of resources part, and the list goes on.
By the way there are two books entitled The Art of War. One by Sun Tzu and one by Machiavelli. | |

| Ok people...STAY ON TOPIC!
Anyway, another good book I am reading this summer (surprise, surprise) is the Bible. Specifically, I am trying to read the New Testament in a month. I heard if you read 7 chapters a day, you can read the NT in a month. So I am going to try it. Hopefully, all will go well. | |

| You didn't HAVE to reply then...lol.
And I'm going to read some Agatha Christie book this summer...I forget the title but it's one of the ones on that list for school.
Also I just finished the Circle trilogy by Ted Dekker (Black, Red, and White). They were good books, a little out there, but the plot was great. Dekker is definitely one of my favorite authors. I gotta say, I like his stuff more than Frank Peretti's. | |
