Just Finished:: Voices From The Bunker - HITLER'S PERSONAL STAFF TELLS THE STORY OF THE FUHRER'S LAST DAYS : by - Pierre Galante & Eugene Silianoff
Started:: The Young Hitler I Knew : by - August Kubizek (Hitler's Teenage Friend)
Voices From The Bunker is one of the best books ive ever read. i highly recommend it if your fascinated by the man hitler. most of it is the stories of his secretary Frau Junge, and it described, hitler the man in personal terms. every page was interesting.
ive made it a ritual to read every night before going to bed, as i like to read, and it also is a nice relaxation from the hard days of the week, and good preparation for bed, as within 10 minutes, my eyes are heavy, and i drift off to sleep with ease. *recommended for those with insomia* just might work. |

Because many movies are only loosely based on the book, and while good, the books themselves are massively better.
example - the beach |

and Starship troopers, that book is a classic, required reading for the USMC officers and they made the worst movie out of it
also Battlefield Earth, that movie sucked |

books increase IQ's, and allow the reader to essentially play out with their own imaginations a movie within their minds based on what they just read. books are immensely more detailed than a movie. most movies are for entertainment, but most books are for insight. |
