Whatchya reading?







My blog buddy and sister crafty gal, Michelle Mach, recently blogged about what she's been reading. Thought I would share some of my recent/current reads with you.

Reread Steve Berry's The Alexandria Link.

Just finished reading James Rollins' The Doomsday Key

I love all of Berry's and Rollins' books. They tell great tales of suspense and adventure which incorporate historical items of mystery with modern twists.

Currently reading The Gate House by Nelson DeMille. His books start off with a bang and the action never stops!!

My Aunt Penny sends me her book club's list of books every year and when I visit her during the summer, I am lucky enough to attend a meeting. The book I read for her book club was Jodi Picoult's 19 Minutes. It's a sad tale about two teenagers whose lives are entwined and inevitably divided by a Columbine-like disaster. Not a read for the faint of heart. It was a difficult subject to read about. Not everyone liked the book, but it certainly provoked interesting conversations. This was the first book of Picoult's that I have read. Some of my friends have said her work is formulaic. I can't say whether I agree or not until I've read another.

What are you reading?
