My dad recently become ill, and now the bad weather has come, he doesn't go out as much. He's been getting bored now, and phones me a lot more. He bought me some awesome books, which I read in 3 days and he was amazed that I could love books so much. I told him that sometimes, when a book is good enough, it can feel as if your really there.
Now, he's bored and I said I'd find him some books to read.
He doesn't know what genre he'd like, as he's never really been into reading, although now he'd like a hobby. I've decided to buy him a few, and keep buying until he finds a genre he's into and then I'll get him some of them. Although I don't know how to start.
Up to now, I have got him some Dan Brown Books, as even though I don't like the genre, I love his books.
I also got him The Book Of Fate by Brad Meltzer.
I want to give him Bitten by Kelley Armstrong to give him a dark Fantasy book.
Now I just need a horrow, crime and whatever else I can think off.
Well, basically(Finally got here) I just need a few books that you recommend to a 50ish year old man, who likes history and was in the army. Anything would be good, I just need some good started books for him. thanks for anything you can help me with! Sorry for the load of writing.
