Another Harry Potter addict here. For can't-put-it-down reading Rowling's a winner. On the other thread I mentioned the WWII personal account, With The Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa, by Eugene B. Sledge, and I recommend it here, too, because it is so absorbing. Gangs Of New York , by Herbert Asbury is not the most accurate of histories, but god, what a great read. Mouse Tales: A Behind-The-Ears Look At Disneyland, by David Koenig, is a very entertaining an informative read. He tells of the prankster culture among the employees that permeated the place until the top brass cracked down on it, and the really hilarious pranks they pulled. There are also chapters on visitor stupid questions and actions, chapterts titled "The tragic kingdom," "Lawsuit Land,"....you get the picture.

last, but along with Harry potter at the top of the list, is Anguished English, by Richard Lederer. It's been out for a long time, so maybe it's old news to you, but I hough I'd mention it on the off-chance you haven't read it. Trust me, Rick - GET THIS BOOK. It is truly laugh out loud reading, by an English teacher who collected errors from student history papers, courtroom transcripts, traffic reports and such.

Happy reading.

Best,
