Let"s Read!

What do you do in your spare time--if you have any?
I love to read!  And always, always on the lookout for
a good book to read.
One time when we went to bookstore with my 
mother, I asked her if she would like to look for
books to read--her reply,

"I have A book to read!"
Oh My Gosh--just one book!

Here are some of the latest finds.

Nick Petrie:"Light It Up"--I've read his other two
books so third one is a must--
Brad Meltzer: "Escape Artist"  Oh, yes--a history
lesson wrapped into a mystery!
Huan Hsu:  "The Porcelain Thief"--what could be better
than a tale about Chinese porcelains treasures buried--the hunt is on!
Rhys Brown:  "The Tuscan Child"--a story that takes place in Italy
and England.  I'm 2/3 the way through this.
Mario Giordano:  "Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions"--60 year old
Aunt detective--I couldn't wait to read this one--Finished!!
Ben Aaronovitch:  "Midnight Riot"--oh boy!  This sounds really good!
and then two Irish 'cozy' reads by Carlene O'Connor--a trip to
Ireland!! 

And then, we made a trip to Costco--it was bad news when
I walked by the book shelf--more interesting books!

Harlan Coben"  "Don't Let Go"  pure fast reading with a good
story line
Anthony Horowitz:  "Magpie Murders"--a story within a story
John Grisham:  "Camino Island"--probably text book story line,
but fun read
Janet Beart:  "The Atomic City Girls"--a tale of women at
the Manhattan Project

Sometimes, I get lucky with Paperback swap and find a book
I've been wanting to read; such is the case with Christine Carbo's
"Mortal Fall".  I have many credits with PBS so it didn't cost
me anything to receive this book--just takes time as it is 
sent by the owner by media mail--it isn't as if there isn't
anything to read!

It's Time--

 It’s time to think about greeting cards I’ll send out this year.  Most years, if I’m not feeling pressed, I’ll create my own cards.  One ye...
