What are you reading the week of Sunday, May 17, 2015?

[hermetic]

4. Where did the week go?

Busy, busy. Whoever said that retirement is boring never visited my house.

Anyway, finished The Sisters Brothers. Loved it. Well worth the wait. Cowboy noir, yee haw!

At one point I started thinking that if Hunter Thompson had been around during the gold rush, he might have written something like this. A road trip, drugs, alcohol and devious characters. Then it all wraps up nicely in the end. Highly recommend, if you're into that sort of thing.

Since I got that book from an out of town library, and it came with a little note saying that I should pay $3 for the shipping, I decided I would just stick with what my local library has to offer for a bit. So, I went for a C.J. Box, The Highway.

This book was in the Mystery section, as are all the Box's, but it's no mystery. Not to the reader, anyway. More of a Horror, I'd say. You follow along with a psycho long-haul trucker and know everything he does. It's very creepy and I want to read it all at once. A real page-turner. I expect to be reading more from C.J. Box in the future.

Happy reading, everyone!
