Realized I've been spending too much time in front of a screen lately, was hoping to find some good books, fiction or non fiction doesn't matter to me, hoping to maybe learn a thing or two so maybe some good manuals if you know of any? Thanks in advance.
/k approved books?

Can you be more specific about what you'd like to learn?
As an entry point, SAS survival guide is generally a good all round book for learning / dipping into survival skills. Comes in tiny sizes for a pocket or a bag, and also there's a nice anniversary / special edition hard cover that's much better for at home, nice glossy pages and full colour.
You can also find US army ranger manuals online for free in PDF form, you can also spend a bit more and get them from amazon if you want a hard copy - they cover everything from first aid to combat doctrine.
for fiction Tom Clancy is the obvious starting point. You can go for the highlights of Hunt for red October and Rainbow Six, the latter might be a tad confusing at parts but he does a good enough job of covering the history. If you want to do the full thing- which I recommend - then start with patriot games, then white rabbit, then go with publishing order.
After Tom Clancy my favorite Jow Forums related author is Conn Iggulden, he writes historical fiction, he has a series on Ceasar and one on Genghis Khan that are equally worth checking out.
Larry bond is also a great author, Red Pheonix Burning is a good entry point - it's about a modern Korean war.
One of my personal favourite books is 'chieftains' - gritty tank warfare in a cold war gone hot scenario. short read, but a good action packed book. You probably wont find a physical copy so you'll need to get a e-book.
Speaking of e books, everyone should have a kindle paper white. I bought one 6 years ago and it's still going strong.

I'm on Red Rabbit, now. Already did Red October. Great series, but I recommend chronological order, not publishing.
