I have read way too many business books in my day... so I am expanding my horizons by getting into new genres. Don't get me wrong, I still have a stack of business books I will read, but right now I am starting to read Enders Game, which will be my first "True" Sci-Fi read... I will let you know how it goes.

So do me a favor, recommend... more »

    Ender's Game is one of the 'new' classics of Science Fiction. Given the serious nature of the choices i see, I will be surprised if you don't enjoy it immensely!
    Cheers,
    Susan

    Read your comment on "The Fountainhead." I was introduced to Rand's works via "Atlas Shrugged" and read her books "backward." that is, Atlas first, then Fountainhead, Anthem, We the Living, and the collections of essays as they came out. I agree with you about Atlas being ahead of Fountainhead, though I wonder after many readings of both whether that is in part because her superheroic characters are more believable in a book set, however anachronistically, in the future. Since you like business books, I'm wondering if you've read Alan Greenspan's autobiography. Having read an excerpt and heard him on Russert and Charlie Rose, I just bought the book and haven't read it yet. I will be interested to read what he says about Rand. I actually took his economic course at Nathaniel Branden Institute in the late 60s when he was part of the inner circle. I am new to Shelfari and still puzzled about how it works, so if you wish to communicate, I'm not sure how that is done.

    Hello, I would like to say some words about my experience with the Shelfari Author Review and Author Review Chat. As you know, there is a group of authors - readers, who normally would like to make their books known for the wide public. But, this is not correct directly to be done, because the other members of this society feel bothered, and this would be indeed so. To help is coming the Shelfari Author Review and Author Review Chat where the authors get the chance to promote their books and any of the other members is free to visit or not this group. Thanks to J. Kaye Oldner for the enthusiasm and the great work to organize the group and blog. Thanks to the reviewers for their great work to read our books and to give competent opinion. P. Bahchevanov
