March 21, 201511 yr Author Those of you who've read a lot of James Patterson...do all of his books have really short chapters?
March 21, 201511 yr This year I have read the "Killings": Killing Kennedy, Killing Lincoln, and currently reading Killing Patton. Also read Razzle Dazzle and American Sniper. I have read all the "Killing" books except for Killing Patton. How is it??
March 21, 201511 yr Just finished Tony Robbins book, "Money, Master the Game". I recommend it. It is very long but worth it IMO. He interviews some of the brightest financial people in the world and then goes into how investors are being totally screwed by the mutual fund industry and shows exactly how and why. His goal is to take something that seems pretty complex and make it simple for the novice investors. As you would expect with Tony Robbins, he also has some motivational type stuff in the book as well. Again I recommend it. When it comes to investing, what you don't know CAN AND WILL hurt you..
March 21, 201511 yr I have read all the "Killing" books except for Killing Patton. How is it?? Unfortunately I hit a reading lull when I started this book. Read the first chapter and have not gotten back into it yet. Hoping to get momentum next week.
March 21, 201511 yr Try reading a few non-conspiracy books, such as Vincent Bugliosi' 1,600 page book "Reclaiming History", which took 20 years to research and write, and you might change your mind. IMO he proves without a shadow of doubt that Oswald acted alone when he assassinated President Kennedy. It was really just a simple crime of opportunity. I will do that. I wish that I could believe that he acted alone, but too much evidence to the contrary - witnesses, Parkland doctors statements that he was hit from the front, Zupruder film, Magic Bullet, Ruby? I will buy that Oswald was one of the shooters, but can't believe that he was the only shooter. Maybe your book recommendations will change my mind.

I have read quite a few books on both sides of the argument. A shorter and very good book that lays out the facts (in convincing fashion) that Oswald acted alone is a book called "A Conspiracy of One". I would make sure to read this along with the others.

Sorry for the double response, but everything you mention above is repudiated in "A Conspiracy of One"

March 21, 201511 yr First time reading it? Yes. Found the first four last year and enjoyed the heck out of them. I was waiting to find this one in a thrift store and was finally rewarded.

March 21, 201511 yr Yes. Found the first four last year and enjoyed the heck out of them. I was waiting to find this one in a thrift store and was finally rewarded. Not everyone is a fan of it. I loved it. No real big plots got solved but it set everything up for a great 6th book.
