Some Anne Rice and Steven King novels, I have only read a few fiction books...I usually read to learn and not be entertained, I am fascinated by so many different things, and I have a specialized knowledge of many different subjects because of this
John Petrucci (lead guitar player for Dream Theater, arguably the most technically perfect band EVER!!!)...
