My dad recommended that I read Mission Earth, a 10-part series by L. Ron Hubbard(the guy that created Scientology).
The first book was mildly interesting, but the rest of the series dragged on and on like an insane rant. I blocked out my memories of reading it, but I remember I got as far as book five before stopping. He wanted me to read Atlas Shrugged next, but I just decided never to trust my dad's taste in literature again.
On a completely unrelated note, is schizophrenia passed down genetically?
