Story the Soldiers wouldn't tell: Sex in the Civil War
Interesting read I'd gather. Apparently includes an interesting anecdote about some soldiers returning. Some women were drawn by the sounds of music and general humanity, and eventually ended up naked from the waist down, servicing dozens of men each. Makes you look at Great-Great Grandma in a far, far more different light. (Well not mine, she was English)
Re: What's everyone reading?
Right now I'm reading a book called "Time: The Semi-Final Frontier", which is the third book in a series about a gunslinger that travels through time on a train. He ends up in Deep Space on a space ship in the middle of a Interstellar War.
I intend follow up by reading a Star Wars book called "Death Troopers", which is a Zombie themed story.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I know, I'm so behind the times. ;) I just saw the movie a few weeks ago and was really impressed, and my partner's mom happened to own the books, so I'm going through those right now. I hear they're much better than the movie so I'm pretty excited.
I'm also working my way through the Lord of the Rings again. I like to re-read them every year, because I'm a giant nerd and I'm kind of obsessed with it.
Re: What's everyone reading?
I just finished reading that Sierras. It bored the absolute shit out of me for the 1st 350 pages. The 2nd one is pretty interesting right from the start. I'm gonna wait until I'm done the books before I see any movies. On a side note, I don't think I like Trent Reznors and Karen O's cover of the Immigrant Song.
Re: What's everyone reading?
I don't like that cover either........however I've never considered what a cool industrial cover that could be....done more industrialy that is

Oh really? I haven't read much of it yet to be honest, (too busy party rocking) but it didn't seem to be too boring.
I'm more excited for the second book because I don't know what's going to happen. I usually like to read the novel before I watch the movie
based on it.
Re: What's everyone reading?
I finally jumped on the George R. R. Martin "Game of Thrones" bandwagon... but in my defense, I claim business/artistic motives: I'm scrutinizing the competition!
Re: What's everyone reading?
the latest game of thrones book is alright............so how long's it going to be for the next one...another 6 years?
Re: What's everyone reading?
"The Coming of the Civil War" - Avery Craven. I'm on a "War of Northern Aggression" kick.
