January 2011

  1. City of Glass, Cassandra Clare. I enjoyed this continuation of the Mortal Instruments series. Shadowhunters unite with Downworlders.
  2. Fall of Giants, Ken Follett. So much history, wrapped up with some good characters.
  3. Foreign Bodies, Cynthia Ozick. I didn't really like these characters.
  4. Life, Keith Richards. Years of drug use did nothing to dull Keef's memory.
  5. Moonlight Mile, Dennis LeHane. Follow-up to Gone, Baby, Gone.
  6. An Object of Beauty, Steve Martin. Steve Martin, Renaissance Man.
  7. Port Mortuary, Patricia Cornwell. Scarpetta in the first person still seems rather distant.
  8. Traveling With Pomegranates, Sue Monk Kidd and Ann Kidd Taylor. Mother and daughter travel and find themselves.

As I am horrible at reviews, I've linked these to their Goodreads pages. I highly recommend Traveling with Pomegranates and An Object of Beauty.

Have you ever read anything by Michael Crichton? I think you might enjoy his books. My favorites are Jurassic Park, The Lost World, State of Fear, Airframe, and Prey.
