If any of you enjoy sci-fi books even a little. You have to go pick up the first book in the Honor Harrington series by David Weber. I just finished number 7 in the series and can not wait until I can get home where number 8 is waiting for me.
I've really enjoyed all the Honor books, but this one got me especially. By the end of it I was crying. Happy and sad and relieved and heart-broken. All of it. And this was while getting interupted every 5 or 10 minutes by work stuff. (how dare they want me to do my job when I'm reading! 
)
