Barbarian Days, surfing memoir by William Finnegan that I grabbed because of the title but it's super sprawling and absorbing
I grabbed it to show a surfer collegue, read the first page and let's just say he never got to even see the book. Gifted another surfer collegue the book for christmas, she read it in one sitting and now apparently this summer I'm learning to surf; "We'll just push you and a board into some ankle biters and eat pancakes afterwards..."
'Ali' was an interesting read, better written than 'Ambition'. Both recomended for people interested in boxing though.
'American Gods' by Gaiman was an excelent book, hoovered it. Not even into fantasy but these crossovers into the real world are okay.
