Re: Reading and Books


Have just purchased Clive/Dirk Cussler's latest Dirk Pitt-book Black Wind.

Hope it keeps up the same quality that has been the hallmark of CC's Dirk Pitt-books so far.

Re: Reading and Books


Clive Cussler has two names?

I'm reading "Fear, Anxiety, and Other Unvited Guests" by Harriet Learner. It's not very gripping, but we can't all be "An Unquiet Mind" (by Kay Redfield Jamison).

I just finished Mike Jeferries original triology that began with "Road to Underfall" & ended with "Shadowlight". It was fairly good, no where near JRRT, but Mike told a good story. emoticon

Re: Reading and Books


Sounds like good times. emoticon

I stopped reading "Fear, Anxiety blah blah" because it was mostly boring anecdotes.

Over winter break I read "The Secret Life of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd, which is a completely brilliant book. I definitely recommend this to everyone.

I read a couple other books, but I forget now.

I also started reading "The Last Crossing" by Guy Vanderhaeghe and "The Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck, but I have since stopped both books.

Not because they aren't good, but because I just don't feel like reading right now.

Re: Reading and Books


I am currently reading The Elegant Universe by string theorist, Brian Greene. It's great, but I odn't feel like posting a summary.

Re: Reading and Books


I so want to read The Secret Life of Bees - I heard a lot of buzz about it (hee hee! coudn't resist) and it's all great buzz.

I've been reading a riveting biography about William Randolph Hearst called The Chief, by David Nasaw. This book is written so well. It has been dificult to put the book down. Very riveting reading, indeed.
