Hope everyone one is having a great summer season.....
Has anyone read any good books lately...?
Willy Loman; are you out there,,,?
PS just a note to say that Patty and I had dinner with Willy Loman and his wife when they came to New York; we had a wonderful time......And Willy has some great news to announce and share with the forum...
The Ghosts of Sleath- very scary tho!!!! Its by James Patterson.
I just finished The Pandas Thumb, by Stephen Gould. Just started Thomas Paine, Common Sense & Rights of Man.
Yeah//// Tell "Willy", I miss him too.
Wish I could have been there.
American Apocrypha.....a great literary critical book (finally!) on the Book of Mormon.
Couldn't put it down.
The Rapture of Canaan by Sheri Reynolds was very good. Tells the story of a young girl growing up within her Grandfathers tightly controlled religoud compound.
I read Mark Twain in the Sandwich Islands, and laughed my ass off! Then I failed to retrieve it from the plane.... dang. It's a good piece of Hawaiiana Literature, and the writings that began his fame.
I'm reading Tortilla Flat by Steinbeck. Next on my list is Cannery Row. I loved "Mice and Men". Kev got a Carl Sagan compiled shortly before his death. I want to read that, too.

Brenda - I think the sequel to ''Cannery Row'' is ''Sweet Thursday'' - both great reads. Am a bit of a Steinbeck fan myself.
My last good read was ''Nobody True'' James Herbert.
And, of course, anything by Agatha Christie.
I've not read any Agatha Christy.... yet.
