This is one of the more difficult posts and I might edit it, but hopefully not. With no further introduction, straight to the point. My top 10 favorite books of all time, over all genres.


First one admission. There are no books, like science fiction. I am just putting it out there. So before I get to the list, I must emphasize my bias so as not to be called out.


I am trying to mix it up a bit, so here goes, tadaaaa, the list:





1) 'The clan of the cave bear' by Jean M. Auel


2) 'Wool' by Hugh Howey


3) 'Old man's war' by John Scalzi


4) 'The cobra' by Frederick Forsyth


5) 'And then there were none' by Agatha Christie


6) 'Shadow & bone' by Leigh Bardugo


7) 'The last colony' by John Scalzi


8) 'Phatoms' by Dean R. Koontz (brrrr.. chills)


9) '1984' by George Orwell


10) 'The Rosie project' by Graeme Simsion

Now, these kinds of lists are super individual and my style might not be everyone's style to read. I read almost everything that is recommended to me, every genre. I also enjoy young adult series when I am in the mood, such as 'the selection' by Keira Cass, and of course especially my gullible Sci-Fi genre, like Frank Herbert's Dune series. I don't read much horror anymore, but I used to and I still remember each horror book I read, giving my spine a good chill while recalling the plot. What are you reading right now? and what are some of your favorite books?

I can really see link this watch as something of a funky daily wearer. I think the exclusion of a bi-color bezel link almost bolsters the idea in many ways. The Monster is a Seiko original design, with curves, bevels, edges, and teeth which are Seiko staples through and through. This watch stands link on its own merits with or without the PADI logo, but it also sits it its own category against other PADI Seikos of the past.

Not only does this brochure promote Bulova, it forcefully advocates for the employment of rehabilitated veterans in general, who "have the stuff to stick to difficult link jobs." Bulova deliberately worked to make hiring disabled veterans easy for employers, so that they would recognize it as a business opportunity, rather than a charitable obligation. Veterans are not to be pitied or sentimentalized, the pamphlet insists–they should be rightly appreciated for their link skills link and value in the workplace.

If you're heading out to pick one of these up today, I wish link you the best of luck. But more link importantly, send pictures! I'd love to see wrist shots of the Mission to Moonshine Gold flood my inbox today. And stick with us, as we'll be keeping our eye link on the scene in these select cities today.

Great top 10. Clan of the cave bear would be in my top two. I read the whole series and they were great. I loved battlefield earth as one of my top two. Thanks for the list.
