Fifty Shades of Guns and Knives by Joe Sacco

Fiction

Fifty Shades Darker by EL James.  Page 316 says, " Do you want to leave your bag with Taylor?" I ask Ethan.

Fifty Shades Freed by EL James.  Page 115 says, "Do you want me to spank you, Anastasia?"

Straight Razor Days by Joel Thomas Hynes.  Poetry collection by a Newfie.  My commentary is here: http://youtu.be/4MjfcDkY0Yc.

The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter.  Collaborative novel by Pratchett and Baxter.  Something to do with time travel.  I think.  Partly set in Madison, WI.

NonFiction

The AR-15: volume 4 by Patrick Sweeney.  "Plus: extreme torture testing"  Extreme?  Really?  Well, more or less, he does shoot them with birdshot.

Knives: 2012 edited by Joe Kertzman.  Look at all the custom knives you are too poor or cheap to purchase.

Journalism by Joe Sacco.  Sacco uses comics to tell stories.  The drawings add so much to his reporting on the war in Iraq and the culture clash of African immigrants with the natives of Malta.

Wonderdads: the best dad and child activities in Chicago by Regina Lewis.   Page 70 says, "There are bike trails and prairie paths and deer everywhere."

Mom, Dad...Can We Talk?: insight and perspectives to help us do what's best for our aging parents by Dick Edwards.  How to and why to discuss issues of health, aging, and death with your parents.
