What are you reading this week of July 3, 2016? [View all]


Happy 4th!

I finished Die Trying last night. What a terrific story. I'm now a Jack Reacher fan and will read more, later. Some fun coincidences: things happen on the 4th of July, and Salmon, Idaho is mentioned. A friend was just there a few days ago and posted some pics on Facebook. Beautiful area.

Right now I'm awaiting a shipment from Thrift Books of a bunch of must-reads. In the meantime I'm going to read Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich. This book was highly praised here a few months back.

What books are you celebrating this week?

On a sad note, R.I.P. Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize winner and author, advocate for victims of violence and oppression.
