to the area aside, I can't stick with this one. I will probably use it for a "doctor's office book," where I can just read without trying to concentrate on plot.

Forgot to added that I read Peter Heller's book The Dog Stars last week, too and LOVED it. I loved the style of writing as well as the story. I think that someone who is a pilot and loves flying (and dogs) would swoon over this one. I look forward to reading more of Peter Heller.

I did give up on the Jess Walter book, but I might pick it back up at a later time. I downloaded Oryx & Crake and hope it is as good as all the other Margaret Atwood books I've read and loved.

The good thing about being (newly) retired is that, in spite of the crappy weather, I can read all day without getting stir crazy.
