Public Readings: Catch up time
Changing the format of this a little. Instead of having Twitter post to this blog nearly daily, I am just going to post over the weekend the list of books. I’ll still be using Twitter to keep track of books that I see people reading. Anyway, here’s what I have seen people reading the last two weeks..
Dune: House Trilogy: House Atreides by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson
A prequel to Dune as written by the son of the guy who originally wrote Dune, Frank Herbert, and some other guy who has written enough sci-fi novels to ensure he never gets a girlfriend (I kid!).
Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
The story of a girl? Or is it a a boy? Well, it’s the story about a person who is born a girl but at the age of 14 has an emergency surgery and ends up a boy. But I’m sure you’ve already read this as Oprah, being the literary genius that she is, selected this book for her book club a couple years ago. Still a good read I am told.
Two Little Girls in Blue by Mary Higgins Clark
Clark’s thirty-third book. Think about that for a second. 33. That’s a lot of books! You go girl. Anyway, in this suspenseful-thriller, a pair/set of twins is kidnapped and held for an $8 million dollar ransom. When paid only one of the girls is returned along with a note saying that the other girl has died. But wait, the little girl has telepathy and says her twin sibling is alive.
Final Verdict by Sheldon Siegel
Fourth legal thriller by this author. Having been accused and cleared of murder charges ten years ago, a man, who is dying, returns yet again and is charged with murder, yet again. The law firm fights against everyone’s hesitation to prove his innocents but that may not be as easy as it seems as a lot of evidence has been found against him.
The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
A memoir. The story of a girl and her siblings raised by parents who believe that children learn best from making their own mistakes. Being forced to move around often by her nomadic parents, Jeannette is sure to learn some valuable life lessons along the way.
Stone Cold by David Baldacci
The third book featuring the Camel Club. This description tells me that this is a book full of plot twists and espionage. Some girl steals $40 millions dollars from her mother’s murdering who just happens to own a casino while a former CIA assassin leads the Camel Club finds out he may be up for assassination after being branded a traitor during the Cold War.
The Purfect Murder by Rita Mae Brown
I like murder mystery books. Personally I tend not to stray away from Agatha Christie because, let’s face it, she is one of the best if not the best murder mystery writer. However, Rita Mae has made things interesting as the protagonist investigates the murder the local OG-BYN.
This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Francis Scott Fitzgerald’s first novel. A story about a Princeton student who searches for love and status during the first world war.
The Lonesome Gun by John E. Temple
A western about a cattleman who vows revenge against the man who killed his son. But it isn’t as easy as it seems. Shooting him would probably work, but I’m willing to bet he has a posse with him that will get in the way. Expect at least one gunflight.
What Is the What by Dave Eggers
The protagonist flees from his home in Sudan after a war breaks out. Joining a group of “lost boys”, he faces hardships as he makes his way towards America only to face more hardship. It seems this book is written in the same “is it fiction? Is it truth?” writing style of his first book, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius.
Coyote Blue by Christopher Moore
I saw the girl who I caught reading Fluke a few weeks ago. This time she continued her Christopher Moore theme with Coyote Blue which is one of my favorite novels from the author. It’s the story of a Native American who tries to hide from his heritage only to have his life turned upside down when the Native American trickster figure, a coyote, appears to cause havoc. Speaking of Moore…
Fluke: Or, I Know Why the Winged Whale Sings by Christopher Moore
I saw another person reading this book. So, uh, yeah. It’s getting popular.
