Since I've been a little kids, I've loved to read. When I was young, I loved Encyclopedia Brown and the Chose Your Own Adventure series. I vividly remember my next door neighbor Al Remley, (aka Big Al) inviting my over to his porch and reading the first chapter of a series starring the character Sekatary Hawkins. As a fifth grader, I looked at Big Al incredulously when he asked me of I could read. In any case he lent me the collectible books, and I really enjoyed reading them.
The love for reading really has followed me through life. The majority of my reading is fiction, although I am certainly not unfamiliar with non-fiction, particularly current events. When it comes to politics and current events, I think Bob Woodward is as good as the come.
One fiction author that I really enjoy is Greg Iles. Like his fellow southern author John Grisham, Iles has penned many a page turning thriller. I recently finished Turning Angel, the story of a former prosecutor who returns to his home town and finds himself in the position of trying to exonerate his boyhood friend after the friend's high school lover turns up dead.

Are you sure we are brothers. I hate to read, if I can't watch it on TV or listen to it on CD then it is not worth my time.
