Speaking of, I.made this for my son from a pizza pan from Walmart. Some hammers (3# sledge), a hitch of some sort (O shaped, 3 inch radius, and a smooth round metal ball. And a $20 auto dent repair kit with hammers included.
Had a lot of fun. Plastic larp stuff is cheaper, but hearing that metal sing from a good.blow? Priceless.
All right, Iāll stay on topic from now on.

The art of war by Sun Tzu
(Note on his name: The actual pinyin spelling of his name is Sun Zi å«å though which literally translates as āgrandsonā, and āTzuā is the anglicized version. I think his birth name is Sun Wu)

Zen & The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
Sadly, itās based upon reality.
Thus Spake Zarathustra
Itās a real head kicker. And have a marker pen for all the great quotes.
Aliceās Adventures in Wonderland
Itās the third most quoted book in English, after the Bible and Shakespeare, so it isnāt really a kidsā book.
Hope these help!

Love Alice in wonderlandl!
Fiction wise I also loved Philip K Dickās Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Itās short and a quick read.
I was recommended this book and Iām about to start when Iām done with exams in a week. It sounds good and I trust the person who recommended it (my physics professor who happens to have graduated from the same tiny weirdo college I went to for undergrad)
Einsteinās Dreams by Alan Lightman.
Itās a collection of Einsteinās dreams when he was working on his theory of relativity, which actually was influenced by a dream about cows.
I havenāt finished this from cover to cover, but I like what I have read and it is practical
Chinese Shamanic Cosmic Orbit Qigo
: Esoteric Talismans, Mantras, and Mudras in Healing and Inner Cultivation by Zhongxian Wu
You and others probably have this one and itās probably my first grimoire that I found in a small used book store for $3 when it fell off the shelf I was leaning on while nodding off on heroin. Lost it for a few years and then found it again when I got clean. The Necronomicon by āSimonā(Peter Levenda)
Iāll add more when I think of anything.
I really like this thread! Always love hearing about books to read
