What I'm Reading 07/21

It's depressing to be home from the beach and not have as much time to read. But that's life, I guess? (I'll have PLENTY of time to read on my 16 hour flight to Africa on Sunday!!!)

Finished, Mennonite in a Little Black Dress. Very Funny. Especially since I know a little bit about the Mennonite culture. Sent a copy to my sister-in-law since I think she'll enjoy it.

Also, finished The Surgeon. Very good, I'm going to keep watching the series on TNT and continue reading the books. I'm onto #2: The Apprentice where they introduce Dr. Isles. It's interesting, the first book had nothing to do with the TV show, but now the storyline is all over the 2nd book. I think this means there will be less surprises. Oh well.

I'm enjoying No Angel. To be honest, the author isn't a very good writer, but it's an intriguing story. What's stranger is that he has a co-author, but you can't really tell. Sometimes he lists out what he did that day, like a checklist, and just leaves out all the emotion. What was he going through? What was he feeling? What was the dialogue? I do think, at least, you get an authentic feel for what the undercovers are like and what the Hells Angels are like.
