368346 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.

368346 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.

I don't think it sounds boring - I used to be in a dart league - seems like a quirky story with potential. I'll check it out.
