I’ve been reading Rise Of The Archer by Thomas Rowe. It’s youth fantasy fiction, but my brother wrote it. Poor guy has to listen to the songs I write, so I’ve gotta check out his wares too. The story isn’t bad so far.

I’d like to say I’m reading Michener or Hemingway, but I love crime fiction series and when I find an author I like, I binge read the series to date then move to another author. Right now I’m halfway through the Miami Jones series by A. J. Stewart. When I finish, I’ll see if my other authors have anything new. Amazon Kindle is great.

To Kill a Mockingbird was required reading as part of English class back when I was in Grade 8 or 9 (one year was Shane the other To Kill a Mockingbird). How did you like it?

Just finished 'The Good Shepard' by CS Forester. I enjoyed the movie 'Greyhound' and thought I would get the full story from the book.
One of the few times where I thought the movie was actually better than the book. It was a bit of a slog to read through. Many people said the movie lacked character development, so if you want to get into the head of Krause, here's your story. However, I did tire of reading 'Turn to this heading', and 'Very Well' every few paragraphs. And the dude does like his coffee. Anyway, glad it was a fairly short read. Up next is 'The Martian'. D

In another forum I frequent, members are currently exchanging "Halloween Theme" book titles. I don't know how trick-or-treaty this one is, but it has plenty of adventure, horror and excellent storytelling. Weaveworld by Clive Barker.

"Go Set a Watchman" has been embroiled in controversy also. I guess it was an early draft of "Mockingbird" that some have contended was never meant to be published; that Lee was taken advantage of in her aged, feeble state. It was also promoted as a sequel which it obviously was not. Since she never published any other novels that probably seemed like a wise marketing ploy. If you haven't read it I recommend it just for one variation in the storyline that contradicts "Mockingbird"...if you don't intend to read it say so and I'll spill the beans... |

For Follett fans, the prequel to The Pillars of the Earth is another good read.

I bought this last year but only getting to it now. 100 pages in and it's great.

I just finished The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin, which is Book 1 of a trilogy. Really fascinating and inventive, but the final few pages' explanation left me a tad disappointed. I'm hooked nevertheless. Has anyone else read the trilogy? Thoughts?
