If you liked those Dan Brown books then may I suggest " Inferno" another great book of his.

I just finished Behind her Eyes -- a psychological thriller -- a bit strange in parts but finished it in one day-- very fast read and keeps you up!

Now I am reading The Dry by Jane Harper -- which is going to be another fast read - takes place in Australia -- mystery -- the type of book that has a current mystery but also discusses a murder that happened years ago.

Finished "Natural Methods to prevent and treat Alzheimer's" by Alyson Rodgers.
It wasn't very good. Pretty much, eat healthy...bring your cholesterol down...nothing new. I highlighted only a couple of things.
Now I'm half way through "Murder in the South of France" by Susan Kiernan-Lewis.
I like how she writes. It's a series of books. This is book one but I already read book five...I didn't know I had book one :?

Great to see you made it over Pia, will be passing along the Susan Kiernan-Lewis series to friends and family that love the thrillers!

I had planned to order 'Natural Methods to prevent and treat Alzheimer's' by Alyson Rodgers. Good thing I waited, I'm sure we will both find a book on Alzheimers that will not disappoint. I walked through this with a wonderful friend next door. So sad as one looses them twice. I still miss her.

Saw ‘Out Of Old Saskatchewan Kitchens’ by Amy Ehman on our Saskatchwan Library page, had me over to Amazon. With a price tag of 599.00 I had to forgo the hard cover, the paper back is supposed to be here tomorrow. Still have to wonder if that 599.00 that was a misprint!

“Amy Jo Ehman is an award winning food writer with the prairie blood running through her veins. From her earliest memories on the family farm, she has been captivated by the flavours and stories of her home province. A food columnist in the Saskatoon Star Phoenix, her first book Prairie Feast: A Writer's Journey Home for Dinner won the Saskatchewan Best First Book Award and was shortlisted for Cuisine Canada and High Plains Book Awards. She lives and cooks in Saskatoon.”

Going to be a busy day tomorrow, between having Farm Business in to do my income tax and the Men’s World Curling I will also be paging through that cookbook for sure! Have to hope it’s not in fine print.

Still awaiting Lisa Hall’s ‘Between You And Me’ a recommend from Shadows that should have been here March 30th hopefully on the 7th.

I am reading and almost done with The Seventh Plague by James Rollins --science fiction, adventure book with some history and biblical history thrown in. It is good but not great.

Next up is 4321: The Bone Labyrinth by Paul Auster. It is already on my kindle.

I just started reading "1984" again. I read it back in high school a long long time ago, it made me think back then, but now...
It is just plain scary how it parallels what is happening in the US now!
I am only starting chapter two and already shaking my head! :shock: :o
