Dug up and rekindled this thread.... because we just don't have enough threads with today's in the title
Well I'm currently reading The Peloponnesian War by Donald Kagan; its a bit hard going but not nearly as hard going as the Thucydides original, a book I also have for my sins. The most telling thing about the Peloponnesian War (fought between Athens and Sparta) is that all the mistakes, grand ideas, atrocities and bog ups they made in 431 BC, we still continually make today.
I've also just recently read yet again Stalingrad by Anthony Beevor - just unbelievable really what both the Russians and the Germans went through there, unbelievable.
And on a lighter note I read the whole Twilight saga, thats Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, over the summer and now know all the answers of what happens and why to Bella, her vampire boyfriend Edward and her shape shifting (into a wolf) other boyfriend Jacob. Can't wait for New Moon to come out at the cinema
