These three will be read over the next month (hopefully) since the semesters almost over.

Almost done reading this. I had no idea so much drama went on with the Gucci family. Crazy how it seems like a fiction novel yet it's all real.
I haven't read any of these, although the Finkelstein book is on my list. Have you read Beyond Chutzpah?
I haven't, that's next though. Finkelstein is great.
"The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine" is pretty good. Sheds a different light on what happened in 1948. It makes me laugh because I'm taking a course that dealt heavily with the Arab-Israeli Conflict as a whole and when we went over 1948 bits and pieces of what Pappe goes over in that book were mentioned, but not the whole story.
Also, thank you to Hankzilla, reminded me I need to pick up "The God Delusion" sooner or later.

My friend lent me this one and I like to read it for the lulz. Maybe you've heard of it?
This. Napoeleon Hill's Thnk and Grow Rich is an awesome read as well. As far as self-improvement goes.. I recommend all of the following:Originally Posted by Esco51

You're stronger than me. I got a paper weight called Infinite Jest.Originally Posted by The Yes Guy
I just finished Infinite Jest after nearly 6 weeks of fairly regular reading, and I'm a fast reader, so that should give you some idea of just how long and difficult it really is.
That being said, totally worth it.
I think I found my summer reading list.Originally Posted by D723

"Success is a Choice" by Rick Pitino
"How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie
"The 48 Laws of Power" by Robert Greene
"The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey
"The Power of Positive Thinking" by Dr. Norman Peale
"Winning Every Day" by Lou Holtz
"Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki
"Pimpology" by Pimpin' Ken (Great read.)
Michael Jordan's "Driven from Within" is also an awesome read. Its more of an autobiography, but has lots of stuff from Tinker and Phil, and Mike's parents as well. The best part of it to me was just getting an idea of how competitive and determined MJ really is. He says something like "I would wake up everyday thinking 'How am I going to attack today?" Dude never missed a day of school.. To me that is insane. I think this would be a great read for all NTers regardless of age and education.
