Good books for a long flight...

[Shady Poker]

Taking a long 14+ hour international flight. Looking for some good books that may help pass the time...

OOT, any suggestions?

Stu Ungar book, though I suppose you may have read already from your avatar.

The Professor, The Banker & the Suicide King is good

Freakonomics is interesting.

Buy a bunch of the Harry Potter books. They are relatively light and entertaining, and you'll seriously make it through about four of them in that time period.

audiobook + ipod


more relaxing.
people won't start conversations, ask what you're reading.
don't need to worry about lighting.

I recommend both. I always seem to find myself reading poker theory books when I fly, so I recommend those as well.

search function.....theres like a million threads on book recoommendations here and in El D's forum. Just avoid some of the more dense ones if you'll be reading for a long time.

QFT.

Potter books are fantastic travel material. If you just want to turn your brain off and be entertained, you can't go wrong here.

Read the first two. Interested in freakonomics, is it enjoyable/light reading or does it get overly technical in an economical sense?

[turnipmonster]

it's light reading, not technical at all really.
