A man terrified of bears walks the Appalachian Trail with his grotesquely out of shape recovering alcoholic friend. Real funny and you'll learn a lot without even realizing it...
The first book in my favorite series "A Song of Ice and Fire." If you ever need a mental break from NYC, then I highly suggest getting lost in Westeros in this amazing series
A young orphan joins the Spartan agoge and faces off against the Persian army at Thermopylae. Accurate historical portrayal of Spartan society, great narrative, and totally brutal. Had Ms. Wentz in tears!
Mr. Post highly recommends this book about the intersecting lives of two European kids growing up during the time of World War II. One is a German teenager who joins the Nazi party, and the other is a young French girl who is blind and must cope with the difficulties of war without sight.
Ms. Wentz made me read this. Awesome journalistic reporting on the history of cadavers, how they are used in modern times, and what happens to bodies in general when we reach our final expiration date...you have no idea...
Not only did the cells from this deceased woman change the history of the biological and medical fields, this particular case raised several important ethical questions regarding medical research.
