    Atm the woman in the window aj finn, what she knew by gilly macmillan and the good nurse a true crime story. I have gotten (indigo gift card, awesome used book store and library book sale) 60 books in February so my to read pile is very high lol. I mostly read mystery/crime/police/lawyer/horror fiction and history and true crime non fiction. I can read a book a day if I'm not overally busy.

    My next book will probably be Thunderstruck by Erik Larson. I bought 30 paperbacks for $35 at the used book store and he threw in a trade paperback, 2 mass market paperbacks and a like new hardcover that doesn't even look like it has been read copy of the Larson because he saw me looking at it.

    I want to read this, I loved his Devil in the White City, and liked In The Garden of Beasts.

    I just re-started reading Catch-22. I first began it probably 30 years ago, but somehow never finished it. My 8th grader recently picked up a copy. He also bought copies of Fahrenheit 451 and Slaughterhouse 5...he was going with a "word + number" theme. I read the other books ages ago, so I figured I ought to finish the Heller.

    Another fan of Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. I loan it to friends all of the time and no one likes it, so I'm glad to see others here do.

    I am currently reading Chelsey Johnson's book Stray City. It's not my favorite, but it's kept my attention so far.

    The best books I've read so far in 2018 are Good Me Bad Me by Ali Land (kind of lowbrow yet creepy & great) and Sam Graham-Felsen's book 'Green'.

    The Dr. Dubrow Keto Fusion diet book, not that I'm on Keto but I stick to low carb for my blood sugar. And I got this at the dollar tree, so why not give it a read. It has some good advice even if not doing keto or low carb.

    And get good with money by Tiffany Aliche, The Budgetnista. Lots of good advice from budgeting, saving to retirement savings, investing. This book is good for everyone.


    Where's the up to date link for this topic, I realize this one is old.

    Happy New Year 🎉
