Thank you for telling us about that FG.
I can understand why you treasure it. I would too!

I am still working on Vince Flynn's book Consent to Kill and want to finish it so I can get on to Grisham's new book!

I also have Paticia Cornwell's latest Book of the Dead staring at me, screaming "read me, read me." There just isn't enough time in the day lately for me to read...and get my work done, and I have been sick with this darn sinus infection and reading has not been high on my list!

Help ME!!!! :eek:

Jo, I haven't read anything by Christina Skye, but I have read of lot of D i c k Francis...but nothing lately. I also love JA Jance! Sandra Brown is another good read, and Stephen White. His main character's wife has MS. She's a DA. Interesting books. His last book is called Dry Ice and it's loaded on my iPod for when I have a long flight so I can listen to it!

Movies!!
 
In keeping with the title of this -- what movies have you seen lately?

The last movie I saw was Enchanted! What a great movie. I don't go to movies that often, and really want to get out more and see some. Ask AMN about Enchanted! She has a family connection to this one!

Her Code Name series is about "enhanced" navy seals/special ops teams {telepathically, physically and mentally}
for mature readers - descriptive romantic encounters


Oh I really like that site - just click a letter for a list of authors with last names starting with that letter.

I love that the year the books were published is given also - easier to read the series in order


Richard "D i c k" Francis is one of my old time favs {he's an ex jockey} so many of his books are set in and about the racing scene. mystery - murder, crime

I have to agree about the web site. I have it bookmarked. When I found the site I started a spreadsheet that I take with me to the library so that I don't get out of sequence on the series that I read!

It's also got a section on the bottom of the page where it shows if you like the author you're looking at you might also like these authors. I've found a couple of new authors that way. It sounds like most everyone on here so far likes edge-of-the-seat suspense, mystery, intrique, that kind of thing. Absolutely my favorite!!!!!

Are the Vince Flynn books any good?? I haven't started reading any of his yet but I do have them on my list. Also, has anyone read the Lincoln Rhyme series by Jeffrey Deaver? The first book of the series was made into a movie with Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie - The Bone Collector. There are 7 books in that series, but I haven't read any of them yet either.

First John Grisham, now Patricia Cornwell. Seems we like the same authors FG. I have read the new Cornwell one though, and although it was OK, I didn't think it was as good as her earlier books. I was a tad disappointed.

Vince Flynn series character Mitch Rapp is a CIA undercover operative. There is a lot of intrigue, special OPS stuff, CIA black OPS, covert operations - bombs, airplanes, cool weapons, stuff girls aren't supposed to like! LOL! :D Oh yeah, I love that stuff, especially with airplanes!

We must be a lot alike then (except I don't think I better try flyin' your plane :eek:) because I love all that stuff too.

I checked out one of the books today so I'm going to get started on it and see how I like it.

Thanks!!

I just got Stephen King's Duma Key in the mail today (from amazon). I'll let you know what I think when I finish it - but that could be a while. I've been slacking on my reading.

Movies? Haven't seen any new ones lately. Saw Pirates III of course, and loved it of course. But I wait till they're on DVD and watch at home - I hate theaters.

I'm too short to see over anybody, lol.

:o

That's why I like the amphitheatre style theatres. No one in front of you! I am short too. And the seats are staggered, no one directly in front of you.

That's the way Edwards built their theatre complex here in Boise.
