I'm halfway through The Kite Runner. A good and well written story. I also saw the movie.

On Killing and On Combat, by Lt Col Dave Grossman. I am about halfway through the first one (On Killing). Very interesting how much psychological stuff goes on with killing. It makes me want to live my life without having to take a life even more. But in order to live, hopefully I'd kill in a second. Can't tell until then.
