I read Inferno by Dan Brown. It was a typical Brown – running from a mysterious bad guy through Europe, sociopath with a world domination plan, crazy puzzles to solve. Overall it was good, gripping and entertaining, though a bit preachy. Better than the last one.
I read a lot on my 4 week road trip, but the one I most highly recommend is The House at Tyneford, by Natasha Solomons. She is an awesome writer, and I think she could make a grocery list readable. Not exactly a romance, but definitely moving.
I’m reading The Uncanny Life of Polly by Karen Aminadra. About half-way through, it is ‘life imitating art.’ Polly, a best-selling author, returns from a world-wide book tour to find that everything in her life is imitating exactly what is happening in her latest best seller. So far, very entertaining and full of surprises.
I read Beautifully Unique Sparkleponies by Chris Kluwe after reading a few excerpts online and remembering his appearance on Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me. It was more hit than miss, which is about as much as I expect from a first humor essay collection.
Before that I read an ARC of Blood of Tyrants, the new Temeraire book.
Currently reading new SF book Hollow World by Michael J Sullivan. And I picked up the latest Cathy Lamb title If You Could See What I See. I love both authors. If you’ve never tried her, give Julia’s Chocolates a try. You’ll be hooked
