information   10 #1 Posted March 21, 2013 Sorry I know this is the writers section, but I thought whom better to give advice on books!  I read a lot, too much but hey. I only like to read factual books. In short I've hit a wall on finding a good book, so has anyone got any recommendations?  Thanks.
