finished another one!

This Dean Koontz novel "Odd Hours" leaves you hanging. I'm sure his next book will pickup where he left off. I only wish I had it already. Now I'm curious where he is headed with the character Odd Thomas. "In Odd We Trust" will definitely be on my list when I make my next trip to the library.

Barbara Delinsky is a new author for me. I've enjoyed her other novels so I'm sure I will enjoy "Three Wishes".

A dear friend sent me a rather large box of books so I shouldn't need to go to the library other than to return the books I currently have. Hmmmm! I might just have to get the next Odd book though.

This evening I discovered that what ever attacked my computer and took some files from my stored pictures also took a few of my word documents which I have books by author. That might be a run on sentence, but I hope you get my drift. It's all very weird to me. What purpose did this theft serve, other than to really p--- me off? Now I have no clue what else might be missing.

memorial day reading

Finally finished reading Dick Francis "Odds Against". For not being a big book (186 pages) it took me a lot longer to read than I had planned. At least I learned some things that I did not know having started reading the series in the middle. I look forward to reading the next book in the series of Sid Halley. He is a delightful character and very inspiring considering is tremendous loss.

I've been spending way too much time on the computer and accomplishing nothing else. I started reading Dean Koontz "Odd Hours" last night. Odd Thomas is another delightful character, a younger man with special abilities. This is the closest I get to reading books about the super natural. You almost wish you could see ghosts too. Well, not the kind Odd does, but I'd give anything to visit with my Mother.
