| | What I'm reading *
I've always read. While growing up, reading was a refuge when I found life too unpleasant or stressful. Consequently I've bought a lot of books over time as well.
Now that I'm no longer in the rich corporate phase of my life I've rediscovered the library. Dayton's library may be maligned by some but is still a great resource. One type of book I like to read is gay fiction and I was surprised to see a lot of it in the Dayton library's catalog. Plus you can even ask them to buy particular titles, and they will!
Below you can see the five most recent books either that I'm reading or that I've acquired. You can search my books, or you can see all my books. Also my classes page has links back to this page for the books for each class.

| 2007-02-28 | 0451410688 | The Old Fox Deceiv'd | Grimes, Martha | | | | The second in Grimes' series of Richard Jury mysteries, this book features the first instance of Grimes' favorite plot device, namely an implausible coincidence bringing Jury's new friend Melrose Plant to whatever corner of England Jury's latest murder investigation happens to be in. Two characters in The Old Fox Deceiv'd, Bertie and his dog Arnold, reminded me so much of a boy and his dog who feature in Grimes' latest Richard Jury novel, Dust, that I had to compare names to be sure they weren't the same. It wouldn't have been that farfetched -- people you meet in one Richard Jury murder investigation do pop up in later books. | |
