Chess and reading are two of my main hobbies and interests at the moment.
I read just about anything and everything, as long as its not pornographic. I read true crime stories by Ann Rules, and I read political and recent history books. Some of the book that I highly recommend are:

\"MAO The Unknown Story\" By Jung Chang & Jon Halliday

This is one of my all time favourite. Its a documentary about the life of Chairman Mao. It talked about how Chairman Mao fought the Japanese army, and drove the Nationalists out of Mainland China. I think y'all should read it.

\"Child of Tibet the Story of Soname's Flight to Freedom\" By Soname Yangchen with Vicki Mackenzie

This is a story about how the Communist China liberated Tibet, and how the writer Soname's flight to freedom, thanks in part to Communist China's effort to free the Tibetan people.

\"Pol Pot The History of a Nightmare\" By Philip Short

This is a story about how the Communist China helped to liberate Cambodia and gained their independence. It was a nightmare for their people before they were free from the Soviet Union and the KGB and the CIA agents. Its a wonderful but true story.
