Some nice selections out there gentlemen.

For All Those Men by former Louisiana Poet Laureate John Warner Smith.

If you're interested in Lafayette history, a must-read. In 1922, the Klan was threatening to take over Louisiana. A Black Lafayette farmer shot two men, killed one... and the other was the Sheriff.

The ensuring trial appears to have changed the course of Louisiana.

Short read, very important. And published by the UL Press.

Looking forward to season 2 and the spin off they are working on.

Been reading through The Grey Man series by Mark Graeney. Good series.

Figured this would be a good summer topic but couldn’t find the old thread. Please merge this in there if it’s still up Turbine.

So what is everyone reading currently? Just finished The Road by Cormac McCarthy. As a father with a young son, that was a rough one to get through. Definitely gotta lighten it up for the next book.
