Well if your into mafia books, which I am here's a couple I've picked up and couldn't put down:

Wiseguy:The Story Of Henry Hill(this is the book they based Goodfellas on)
Mafia Dynasty:The Rise And Fall Of The Gambino Family. It's around 500 pages, I read it all in about 4 days.

And you can't go wrong with Underboss:The Story Of Sammy The Bull, and Donnie Brasco.

"No One Here Gets Out Alive." It the biography of Jim Morrison. It has been the best book I've read so far.

Right now I'm reading "Zodiac." I'm in the second chapter but it's real good so far.

All the books I read are either Biographies or True Crime. I find them the most interesting to read.

Later!!
