So what are some of everyone's favorite books? I've had a hard time finding anything interesting to read lately and honestly, I'd love suggestions. I usually read fantasy (especially urban fantasy) , some sci-fi, well written non-fiction, some post modern stuff.

Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

Nineteen eighty four is really good. Reminds me of Half life 2 for some reason

Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card is one of my favorite books of all time. Probably have read that thing 15-20 times. Another book series I like started with "mandalorian Armor" I think...it's a series centering on Boba Fett in Star Wars, very fun read.

By far though....Ender's Game....read it.
