    The Iceman (WW II Navy book 5) by P.T. Deutermann was very good.

    Now I am reading a Kindle Unlimited western selection, The Chuckwagon Trail by William W. Johnstone with J.A. Johnstone.

    Finally finished Boys from Biloxi - 3.5* rounded up because I usually like John Grisham more than I did this book. Part of it might have been my recent reading slump, but most of it was I just didn't connect with the characters. Did manage to leave a short review since I won it on Goodreads.

    Now reading a silly little book - The Vampire Knitting Club. I started it just to have something to do while sitting in the salon having my hair colored. It's entertaining so far - a nice little mental floss after all the gangsters.

    Family of Liars (We Were Liars #0) by E. Lockhart

    Glad to see your comments on Family of Liars. I actually read We Were Liars not long before this one came out. It's been sitting on my TBR pile because I didn't want it to take away from a book that I really enjoyed.

    The Fishermen by Chigozie Obioma

    I loved it, but it was tragic, full of dramatically tragic moments. An Orchestra of Minorities by that same author was the same way, I loved them both. Some people find it depressing.

    I'm reading A River Runs Through It and Other Stories by Norman Maclean. I will pause when I get to the "other stories" because my hold on Realm Breaker by Victoria Aveyard came in today at the library and I only get 2 weeks on that one.

    The Fishermen is so well written that it's heartbreaking....
    I'll need something "light" next. Hope The Bangalore Dectective Club by Harini Nagendra fits that bill.

    Is it possible to have too many books going at one time? I've started The Dickens Boy by Thomas Keneally.

    I like to keep only one at a time. Some people watch many television shows concurrently so I guess it might be similar?

    I'm reading A Hill of Bean (Chuckwagon Trail Western book 3) by William W. Johnstone with J.A. Johnstone.

    I also prefer sticking to a single book at a time, while my daughter has at MINIMUM five books going at once.

    I'm re-reading The Martian by Andy Weir (for the fifth time).

    Well my eyes were dilated at my exam today so I am listening to an audiobook, I can't read very well. I am looking forward to that dilation going away. My new glasses came in and are great!

    I'm listening to The Trumpet of the Swan by E. B. White

    I'm with your daughter. For some reason, I have to have several going at once.
