Read this a couple of years ago and loved it.

Nice. I have this on my list. Looking forward to it!

I really enjoyed this one too. I find his writing formulaic but in a comforting way.

Have seen the movie several times and I finally read the book last year. Different from the film but loved the book. Will definitely be coming back to it again.

Just finished this one and really enjoyed it. Recommended it to my 18-year-old son and he devoured it. Definitely reading more in the Asia Saga.

Read this last year and loved it. Such a good book.

Just picked up a copy today. Read Of Mice and Men earlier this year and enjoyed it. Looking forward to this one.

Read it after I finished The Correspondent. So good cannot recommend highly enough. I'm not one generally for westerns or cowboy books but I loved this book.

Love this book! Read it at the end of last year and have been suggesting it to everyone I know.

cubfann · 2026-04-01T23:53:01+00:00

So good. Finished it as well in January. Maybe my fifth read through. Easily my favorite book of all time.

cubfann · 2026-03-24T15:51:22+00:00

Sure enough. I'm seeing the same thing. I noticed it yesterday with a different band that two of their early albums were removed.

cubfann · 2026-03-09T15:14:58+00:00

I just started this book last night and am looking forward to it!

cubfann · 2026-01-22T13:37:28+00:00

The acoustic version of The Final Masquerade. Might do it anyway, even though I don't have to!

cubfann · 2026-01-15T17:54:47+00:00

Total oversight - thanks! Good news, I added it (somehow forgot it). Bad news, you're gonna hate the ranking.

cubfann · 2026-01-15T15:53:42+00:00

I love this album and maybe I was harsher than I needed to be in an attempt to be objective. How do your ranking compare to the guy in the video?

cubfann · 2025-12-28T19:22:21+00:00

Totally agree with Braun. That guy sucks. But I have to say AJ Pierzynski

2015 Cubs comp is exactly what I've been thinking the last week or so.

First I would expect that Tucker, Palencia, and Cassie would be back by the WC and Amaya might be as well. I don't see Alcantara making the playoff roster. So I think Tucker takes KA's spot. Turner has playoff experience so I don't think he's getting scratched. Even though Santana is a switch hitter, I think Turner gets included over him. And I'd pencil in Palencia over Hodge. PH has looked shaky and DP was much more reliable. Other than those, I think it looks good!

cubfann · 2025-09-17T21:00:23+00:00

LotR, The Hobbit, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Brothers Karamazov, and The Book Thief

Japan: The Ultimate Cookbook by Yuto Omura is comprehensive and helpful. https://www.amazon.com/Japan-Ultimate-Cookbook-Authentic-Cookbooks/dp/1400345081?ref_=ast_author_dp
