<p>I was wondering if anyone had put together a book list for prospective cadets.
Thanks.</p>

<p>If you are talking about textbooks that wouldn’t make much sense because you won’t know your schedule until you get here. If you just want some good books to read I would suggest looking up the CSAF reading list, there are some really good books on it this year.</p>

<p>The current list is at the default page and if you get really ambitious you can look back a few years.

<p>This $15 investment was one of the best purchases of my life. Buy it, read it, use it.</p>

<p>finished reading the Kim Ponders Last Blue Mile book a few days ago. not bad, but not really what i expected. seemed to have a more cynical outlook than what I’ve heard from others. I guess it’s good to hear the other side of the story too though</p>
