"Trout Bum" by John Gierach

Holy crap, what a great book!! I've been fly fishing for <1 year and this book was freaking awesome. You fly fishing gurus would probably get more out of it than me, but John writes in such an "everyday" kind of style that almost anyone can read this and enjoy the narrative...it's not just about fishing at all. One of the best I've read in years.

I'm about 20% done with "Term Limits" by Vince Flynn right now- according to my Kindle for Android app. So far a really good book, not sure who the antagonists are yet, but it's about them killing 2 senators and a congressman and issuing a decree that partisan politics cease and the country no longer be run at a deficit or more members of congress will be killed, and even the president is fair game... oddly the book was written in 1997, but it's still relevant today, probably more so.

don't know if folks saw it, but Vince Flynn died today--prostate cancer at 47

Wow. That sucks. The Mitch Rapp series is pretty damn good. I'm 5 or 6 books into it.

Since July 1 has come and gone, it seems that my gun trust business has subsided to the point where I find myself with a bunch of free time on my hands. I'm an avid reader and am quickly running out of stuff to read so I'm looking for suggestions from like-minded folks.

I read almost exclusively for entertainment and it seems like I gravitate towards detective, who-done-it style books.

Here's a list of the stuff I've finished so far:

Vince Flynn books--all of them-- from American Assassin through The Last Man
Lee Child's Jack Reacher series
Brad Thor--all of them
Ted Bell--all of them
James Patterson
Michael Bennett series
Alex Cross series
Private series
David Baldacci
Camel Club series
Alex Berenson

Other one-offs:
Chris Kyle's book
Lone Survivor
Decision Points
Patriots

I just counted and it appears that I've downed 32 books so far this year.

Any suggestions of an author or series I should consider?

Thanks!
