Avid Naked Readers
For those who love to read, either old fashioned paper books ( and my preferred way) or the new fangled ebooks. There was a book reading nudist group at one time but i have not found any trace of it. So this will fill the void.

Return to DiscussionsOne fiction and one non-fiction And please share what was so appealing about the read
Here are mine
Fiction : Beautiful Ruins by Jess Walter Set in the early 60s around the real filming of the movie Cleopatra, it is a hilarious and yet moving romp of romance, and human folly. One prolonged description about a stereotypical Hollywood persona had me laughing out loud for a long time
Non-fiction The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown. the story of the 1936 rowing team from the Pacific Northwest who won the Olympic Gold literally under Hitler's nose at the Berlin Games 1936. Very well written and would make an excellent feel good movie about a group of men who deserved to have history know their story.
Fiction" Gala'pagos" by Kurt Vonnegut published 1985. The novel is a satire on the Gala'pagos Islands in "The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin. Published in 1859. Non-fiction, "We Now Know" Rethinking Cold War History, by John Lewis Gaddis. Published 1997. This is a concise evaluation of the Cold War by the most renowned author of the twentieth century.
