Little travel stories.  Some of them might be slightly dated but I like Cahill’s style.

No Footprints in the Bush by Arthur Upfield

Detective fiction that takes place in Australia.  It was an interesting change from most of the mysteries I’ve read.

I wanted a light easy read and I thought this would fit the bill.

The Wall by Marlen Haushofer
The book does make you think but unfortunately I wanted to be done with long before it was over.


What do you think you’ll read next?

I’m thinking about Endurance by Alfred Lansing. But I also need a Y title for my A to Z challenge so I’m also thinking about The Year of the Monkey by Carole Berry.

Death in the Long Grass by Peter Capstick

Death is right.  Everyone is getting chewed on, gored, and smashed to paste.

Lavender-Green Magic by Andre Norton

I have had this on my shelf for a long time and since I have a color reading challenge going on I think it’s about time I got to it.

The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield

I’m still reading this. I’m surprised. Usually when I’m this into a story I would have been done long ago. I’m reading everything slowly at the moment though. I’m sure it will pick back up soon.

The Lost Chalice by Vernon Silver

This could be interesting but I don’t think I’ve gotten far enough in to truly be involved with the story yet. We shall see.

Black Count by Tom Reiss

This is very interesting. I didn’t know about this guy at all. For those who are interested in French history or are fans of Dumas.

Looking for Przybylski by K. C. Frederick

It’s a book I got for review so I’d like to get going on that soon.

The Mourner by Richard Stark

Violence, crime and the double cross. What’s not to like?

The Lost Chalice by Vernon Silver

I’m still trying to finish up my non-fiction non-memoir reading challenge so if it isn’t this one it will be another non-fiction one.

What are you currently reading?

Euclid’s Window by Leonard Mlodinow
It’s all about geometry. Not for everyone but so far it is very readable and doesn’t have too many numbers.


Narwhal: Unicorn of the Sea by Fred Bruemmer
So far this has been equal parts about unicorn myths and narwhals.



What did you recently finish reading?

A Cup Full of Midnight by Jaden Terrell
A murder mystery that got pretty dark and was kind of gruesome at times. If you’re okay with that it is a good book.



What do you think you’ll read next?

Culinary Reactions by Simon Quellen Field
I just picked it up from the library and it looks pretty interesting. Besides I’m kind of behind on my non-fiction reading challenge and need to get going on that.

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

A lot of ‘80’s pop culture references.  I get most of them but I don’t know if anyone younger than me will remember all this stuff.  Although I think gamers will like this book.

Dolphin People by Torsten Krol

A very interesting book.  And slightly odd.  I think I liked it.

A Cup Full of Midnight by Jaden Terrell

I got it from the Early Reviewers from Librarything and I’m trying to keep on top of the reviews I have to write so I want to get started on it soon.

Sweet Invention by Michael Krondl

It’s the history of dessert.  I haven’t gotten very far.  I got distracted by Peter Pan.

The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti

Sad and sweet.  Dark but hopeful. Good characters.

The Child Thief by Brom

It’s inspired by Peter Pan and the reason I picked up Peter Pan in the first place.

The second book in a young adult series. I like them. They are fun and quick to read.

One of Our Thursdays is Missing by Jasper Fforde

This had a slow start but it’s picking up a little so I still have hope.



The Knight in History by Frances Gies

This looks like it is going to have a lot of information and most of it interesting but it might be rather dense and not as readable as I had hoped.

Wasp by Eric Frank Russell

One man is sent to an alien planet to see how much havoc he can wreak to help the war effort.

The Gods of Gotham by Lyndsay Faye

The New York has just started the police force and some people don’t like it. It’s a dark time and a rather grim story so far but I like it.

Antony and Cleopatra by William Shakespeare

I like Shakespeare and stories about Caesar and stuff like that so I’m liking this too. But it always takes me a little while to get into the swing of reading it.

Red Harvest by Dashiell Hammett

Not my favorite Hammett but still full of noir goodness.

Storm Front by Jim Butcher

I thought I’d give the Dresden Files a try. So far I’m liking it



What did you recently finish reading?

The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor

A young adult book that tells the ‘true’ story of Alice in Wonderland.

James Bond. He beats the bad guys and gets the girl.

I received a review copy of The Gods of Gotham by Lyndsay Faye that I think I’ll get started on. It takes place during the potato famine when and the NYPD is just being formed.

Star Guard by Andre Norton

Humans are the mercenaries of the universe.  It doesn’t seem all that noble but at least it looks like we’re good at it.

Monday the Rabbi Took Off by Harry Kemelman

Less about the mystery than it is about the people.  There are a lot of words in what I assume are in Hebrew and they talk about ceremonies and parts of the Jewish faith that I am unfamiliar with but that is part of the reason I like it.

What do you think you’ll read next?

I’m thinking of reading either The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti or The Turnaround by George Pelecanos.  No particular reason, they have just both been on my shelf for a while now and I thinking I should get to them.

What are you currently reading?

Child of Tomorrow by Barbara Bartholomew
Second of The Time Keeper trilogy. I read these when I was a kid. I’m sure they seemed more exciting to me then. They aren’t bad. They could be a good way to take a break from heavier reading. I just wouldn’t call them great.


The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean
Stories from the periodic table. I haven’t gotten very far yet but I like stories about science and these seem like I will even be able to understand them.



What did you recently finish reading?

Sex on the Moon by Ben Mezrich
Spurred on by his love of a beautiful girl Thad Roberts decides to steal moon rocks from NASA. It’s an interesting story but I have to say that if a guy wants to impress me an illegal act is not the way to do it.

The Time Keeper by Barbara Bartholomew


What do you think you’ll read next?

When Dreamers Cease to Dream by Barbara Bartholomew
The third in the trilogy so I might as well finish it up.

Perelandra by C.S. Lewis
Second in a trilogy. And I’m still not sure how I feel about them. Maybe I can figure it out by the third book.

Before Versailles by Karleen Koen
I really like it so far. Unfortunately I started reading it right before I went into one of my moods where I don’t read anything, So I have been reading it for a long time and haven’t gotten very far. Which doesn’t do the book justice.

What did you recently finish reading?

Barlowe’s Guide to Extraterrestrials by Wayne Barlowe
A catalog of various aliens from various books with a picture of what they would look like. Just something fun and light.

I think I’ll read something by Clive Cussler. I don’t know what yet but it’s been a while since I’ve read something by Cussler and I think I’m in the mood for one right about now.

I want to like this. And honestly, I’m only on page 16 so maybe I’m jumping the gun a bit here, but I don’t think this is going to be my kind of book. I’ll finish it anyway though. I always do for some reason.


What did you recently finish reading?

Regarding Ducks and Universes by Neve Maslakovic
Parallel universes and mysterious government agencies controlling information and ideas. It’s a fun rather fast read with a hapless, likeable hero who just wanted to go on vacation and meet his double but ended up involved in so much more.


What do you think you’ll read next?

Well, I have several things checked out from the library that I should read but I’ll probably end up reading The Loving Spirit by Daphne Du Maurier.

Killing Girl Vol. 1: A Sister’s Love by Glen Brunswick
A graphic novel, the story is alright but I don’t like the artwork.

Another graphic novel, this one about Odin and Thor and such. I liked the artwork better in this one.
