    Yesterday I read The Last Summer Boys by Bill Rivers for a Kindle Challenge (I won a badge, whoop!) Today I am reading Thunderhead by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child.

    Thunderhead by Preston and Child was the best of the three I have read by them. It introduced the character Nora Kelly and had a recurring character in the journalist Smithback from the first two books, but no Agent Pendergast.

    Then I read a pair of books about Dash and Lily written by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. Now I am reading The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune.

    Just started Free: A Child and a Country at the End of History by Lea Ypi. Another memoiristic look at the end of the Soviet bloc, this one from Albania. Seems well written and fascinating.

    I've also started an academic comic murder mystery (is THAT a genre?) called Book by Robert Grudin. We'll see.

    Logan's Word: A Logan Family Western - Book 1 by Donald L. Robertson was boring and predictable.

    Now I am reading Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo.

    Margaret Atwood, Handmaid's Tale. Not my cup of tea, but a student decided to write about it so after all this time of saying no, I'm here reading it.

    I'm on to The Last Colony (Old Man's War #3) after reading the novella #2.5 last night. The novella was 100 pages, not much to it. I'm really enjoying this series so far.

    I bought that one and it is high on my TBR pile but library books keep coming in.

    I read Zoe's Tale (Old Man's War #4) and now on to book 5, The Human Division by John Scalzi. Most entertaining series!

    I put the new Stephen King on my reading list but the new Terry Brooks came out and I want to read that one first. I have both. I had to reread last year's Terry Brooks book because this new one is a sequel, Daughter of Darkness follows book 1, Child of Light. I don't remember reading book 1 at all. What is happening to my memory?
