Mid-November Book Update
Eek, more than mid-way through the month already and no reading update posts. Here's an attempt to remember what I've been reading and listening to lately...
Listened to:
The third in the Pendragon Series, The Never War, where he goes to "First Earth" and tries to figure out if he should save the Hindenburg or if that will cause worse things to happen. I'll have to read The Reality Bug and Black Water now (though the library doesn't have the talking book versions, and the library I'm working at tonight doesn't have either of the books in). There's a sixth, The Rivers of Zadaa, which we don't seem to have at all yet.
Nancy Farmer's fantastic Sea of Trolls
now listening to Hoot, which I had been meaning to read for ages
Read:
Witch Way to Murder : An Ophelia and Abby Mystery, since it was about a psychic librarian.
Scott Turow's new book, Ordinary Heroes, which Mom had sent me. I have to say that I never would have picked it up if it wasn't by Scott, but that I definitely got into it and enjoyed it. WWII battle epics aren't my thing, but I did want to find out what had happened to the character (though I had assumed the "twist" from the start so wasn't all that surprised)
Interestly, one of the main plot points at the end was the same as at the end of the Pendragon book, keeping the nuclear bomb out of Nazi hands.
Now finally reading The Historian.
