What books would you recommend to me?

'1984' is a must read for our time. You might have read it in high school but it is time to read it again. If you like Dostoevsky than I highly recommend 'The Brothers Karamazov'. Written in the finest philosophical tradition. Lastly, for a good true life thrill book try 'Body Of Secrets' by James ord. You'll feel like you have been "read in" to the spies life.
