Roosh recommends in his program (http://www.rooshv.com/the-roosh-program) to read a book every two weeks. I know this is very scene dependent, but what would be the best books to read for gaming purposes?

Thanks, but you misunderstood me. I want books with the material that would be good to bring up in conversations (wine, art, fashion, etc) rather than game books.

Literally anything.

The last few books I read were about fighter pilots in the Gulf War, athletes and genes, some malcolm gladwell shit and the biographies of Ben Franklin and Howard Stern.

I'd say just read whatever interests you personally without regard for how it will serve you in game. Reading interesting shit will put you above 90% of other guys in terms of what they have to talk about. Even if you remember only 1-5 small anecdotes from each book those are conversation pieces you can drop when a girl says something that reminds you of it. Or you can just bring them up out of the blue once you know a girl somewhat. "I'm reading this cool book about body language right now blah blah blah".

Another one that served me very well for gaming purposes was on handwriting analysis. I guess to answer your question that is one book should interest you anyway and will help your game directly.

Here's the exact book I have that I learned from: http://www.amazon.com/Handwriting-Analys...g+analysis

Coffee shop university girls?

Flavor of the month fiction - Stieg Larson was the lick, 50 Shades of Grey, skinny bitch..

Philosophy, pop philosophy, relationship books

Staying up on pop culture, even books, is a bit of a chore, but so are a lot of things

Not to be an asshole, but you need to learn about stupid stuff to have conversations with most women. As WIA mentioned pop culture shit.

Women claim to want intelligence but they don't care. So dumb it down.

For artsy/hipstery chicks, look up GoodReads, loads of girls use this, often linked to their Facebook, you can see what books they're reading. You don't need to actually read these books yourself, but no harm to look up the more interesting/popular ones, to see what they're about, can be useful ramble material, or even as an opener.

I read 70 books a year and I would never read a book just to have asinine shit to say to a girl. I read books to become a man of knowledge. It's that attitude of inner solidity and self-ownership that makes a person want to read and develop that interests a girl, not the books themselves.

AGREED!!! Fuck going out of my way to learn "bitch-knowledge." ALL of my my reading is to become more knowledgeable in areas that interest me, not chicks.

Watch a few minutes of the MTV Music Awards or randomly read the cover story of some pop-culture magazine as you stand in line at the grocery store, and you'll have all the "knowledge" you need to have a conversation in "bitch-speak."

I would agree, and I have been with highly educated worldly women in business and academics, as well as store clerks. They are all the same. Dont ever expect to have a real debate or fruitful conversation about anything, politics, culture, food, music, history, economics, fashion, whatever, no matter how educated/cool you think she is. It always kills the mood, it kills sexual intimacy, they call it man-splaning and to their credit we look stupid as men when we do it. I see guys making this mistake everywhere I go, its called being a wet blanket. Avoid it, always make it light and fun, no serious topics, look at it as taking a break and relaxing.
