Simple Fun

If you're in the mood for vanilla-like fiction, pick up this one. Very uncomplicated plot but entertaining just the same.

4th of July (Women's Murder Club, #4)4th of July by James Patterson

Not Good

Higher Authority (Alan Gregory, #3)Higher Authority by Stephen White

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


More than disturbing characterization/representation of the LDS Church. Not sure what to believe about all that.

White fails in attempting to paint a word picture of a mountainous archeological scene at the end. I just could not visualize it. It was a struggle to finish this one because of that.

This is far from White's best effort. He includes very little psychological motivation of his characters in this story. That's what White is all about. Disappointed.

LIsten!

"To be human is to have the capacity for many different emotions. Behind each one, there is a message. It's the conversation you are having with yourself. Listen carefully."--k.p.

Don't Ruin It

The Girl Who Played with Fire (Millennium, #2)The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I read 2/3 of this book and then made the mistake of going to see the movie. Took something away from the rest of the read. Great book (and movie) though.
