I am currently reading Rainbow Six by Tom Clancy, very suspensful and enjoyable to read, I would recommend to anyone who is looking to read a good techno-thriller

I jumped into that straight from the Torturer and New Urth books. 5th Head must have been one of the first english books I bought and read... I should revisit it now I'm older, but I remember being left scratching my head mostly.
Say more when / if you finish it. That really brought back memories. :)
Remarque's "All is Quiet on the Western Front".
I recently found out about Timothy Findley's "The Wars".
And someone higher mentioned Hemingway's "Farewell to Arms".
Non Fiction maybe be more specific?
In general Tuchman's "Guns of August" is considered a classic but it's focused on August 1914.

"Hellhole" by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. Not my usual fare but found myself in the mood for something different.
"Day One" by Nate Kenyon.

Ship of Fools by Katherine Anne Porter
Some parts are *hard* to read, writing style is decent for my taste.

Finished reading this Italian edition of the second novel in the Full Metal Panic! series by Shouji Gatou. 4/5, pretty funny.

Yesterday I finally finished Le Morte Darthur.
After that ordeal I decided I had to read something enjoyable so I decided on The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy.

Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson, after having finished a Nelson Demille Marathon. I'm planning to reread Snow Crash again after this one. Both writers are heavily recommended!

Philip K. Dick's "Do androids dream of electric sheep". It's the first time I read one of his novels and, while it's quite different from the movie adaptation Blade Runner and it lacks some of the cyberpunk coolness that was mostly aesthetic (a benefit books don't have... and it's also long before the 80s), I'm absolutely loving it. And I'm really digging all the world building that was absent from the film.
