Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire How many are man enough to admit they read?

Because I have a book recommendation. Open Season by CJ Box.

It is about a Wyoming Game Warden named Joe Pickett. He is hard working and a very devoted family man.

Check out the book and get addicted like I did then read the whole series.

Thanks for the tip. I am a voracious reader myself, when time allows.

Please send me a man who reads.

no, i haven't read or even heard tell of that book, but i will look it up. is it available on Kindle, or do you know?

Will look for it. Thanks.

I would venture the guess that most here are avid readers. After all isn't that what we are really doing here most of the time. Reading what others have written.

My wife and I have read the whole series.

I have read the book... very good book... i just now need to get the next one.

I have read the book. I have known Chuck Box for years. Good read.

Love to read - have posted a book recommendation thread here myself.

Thanks for the recommendation -I will check it out!

Thanks for the recommendation, just downloaded it.

At one time my wife said I had to get rid of the books I had bought over the years. Took them to the used book store and it took me 4 of their book cart loads to get them in. The guy told me the max they can give at one time is 100 bucks and I could make more money bringing in some every week.

I told him I'd get killed if I brought some back home, give me the hundred... it was over 900 paperback books.

I don't read books at home much ever since I've had to need reading glasses, just very uncomfortable after a short time. I do read when I'm camping during the down time.

I remember sometimes missing my bus stop coming home from school because I was scrunched down reading, the bus driver eventually made sure I got out everyday because he was pissed having to drive me back...lol

My daughter has the disease and reads a book in a couple hours, she'll go through three in a weekend.

I'll look up your book.

Guilty. Reading is true therapy(in the same vein as shooting}. Fiction, non, Bio, SCi-Fi. I make sure i watch that movie "Farenhiet 451" once a year to remind me how invaluable books are. I think i would be more upset if someone stole my books instead of my car....

As for the question

How many are man enough to admit they read?

hopefully more than will admit they lay in ignorance because they lack the effort to learn.

I love to read. My wife reads when the topic interests her but her choices are mostly non-fiction. Her dad is from Wacross, GA, and she enjoys reading about the civil war because of her southern heritage.
Currently I am reading "Horse Soldiers" by Doug Stanton. About special forces who went into Afghanistan shortly after 9/11 and rode horses into combat. Non=fiction by the way.
I also enjoy Harry Turtledove's alternative history pieces,John Birmingham, and Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child's work.
I think a thread on favorite authors might be interesting.

Man enough to admit? Hmm, curious as hell why you would even think some would be embarrassed to admit?

There's a saying:
Learn to read so you can read to learn.

I heard it as a kid and never forgot it. I love to read but I don't read as much as I'd like to.

Reading something is only half the job.

Thinking about what you have read is the other half.
