(showing 1-20 of 76)
71. SuperFreakonomics Tales of Altruism, Terrorism, and Poorly Paid Prostitutes
Not quite as good as the first one but still a good read.
72. The Scarlet Letter (audiobook)
Ugh, not a pleasant experience.
73. A Year Down Yonder - Richard Peck
Sequel to the YA book A Long Way from Chicago. Pretty funny and cute book. Newbery Award winner from 2001
67. Fall - Colin McAdam
I didn't like this book--creepy and frustrating to read.
68. Pursuit Of Honor - Vince Flynn
Not the worst Mitch Rapp book but certainly not the best.
63. No Time to Wave Goodbye A Novel - Jacquelyn Mitchard
I liked this follow-up to her first book, The Deep End of the Ocean
62. Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins
Excellent follow-up to The Hunger Games--can't wait for the third book
61. The Expectant Father Facts, Tips and Advice for Dads-to-Be, Second Edition - Armin Brott and Jennifer Ash
Pretty decent book on pregnancy geared towards the dads
58. The Gunslinger (audio book)
59. The Graveyard Book (audio book)
60. The Judges A Penetrating Exploration of American Courts and of the New Decisions--Hard Decisions--They Must Make for a New Millennium
54. I Thought My Father Was God And Other True Tales from NPR's National Story Project - Paul Auster
53. The Dart League King A Novel - Keith Lee Morris
I really enjoyed this fast paced, crazy, very dark novel about Thursday night dart leauge championship in a small Idaho town. Sounds boring with that description but very creative.
52. Shutter Island - Dennis Lehane
Eh--not terribly impressed. It was a quick read, interesting characters but the story was predictable and ending was pretty lame.
