Finished this not to long ago. It's amazing how different that is than the way Hollywood makes Jekyll and Hyde out to be.
Also been reading some Lovecraft lately. He's a baller.

I'm in a business 101 class, for our final we have to read a book a write a 5 page descriptive analysis on it. The book has to somewhat relate to the class.
I was thinking Moneyball. But not sure he'd allow it just because it's a movie. Anyone have any suggestions if he says no? I'm not really into reading so I don't know whats good. |

What about Gatsby? There are tons if you're simply talking about business.
Thank you for smoking is another good one.
The Financier also a good pick.

Late 2014 at the earliest. George RR Martin took 5 years between A Feast for Crows until A Dance With Dragons, and he doesn't appear to be speeding up for this one. There is supposed to be another Dunk and Egg story first, and that release date is not even announced yet.
