I'm re-reading Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix....getting ready to see the film so I want the book fresh in my mind....I just re-read HP and the Half-Blooded Prince...getting ready for book 7! Yes, I am a big kid!
I'm reading a book called "Blink". Malcolm Gladwell wrote a well researched novel about how humans have a natural ability to make split decisions in the "blink of an eye" that are actually well educated "guesses" and often times turn out to be the correct decision even after we go back and research our hasty judgement call. I like it, lots of well researched info and very easy to follow.
I've red Wilbur Smith's The Quest, his fourth book about Taita the magician from old Egypt. How anybody can manage to write so many pages about absolutely nothing I don't understand. I was bitterly disappointed.
Working on a couple books on how to teach... getting ready to teach a class to adults next month and I'm a bit nervous!

I'm reading one of my favorite authors. Christopher Moore. Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal, A Novel (please don't send hate mail,, but the topic is here, so i answered)
I recently read "On Ice" by new author Red Evans. It's a quick read and funny story about a boy and banjo player who travel across the U.S. with the boy's dead uncle in the back of a pickup truck who's on ice in a kiddy pool...oh yeah, and there's a flatulent dog in the back seat!
Flowers of the Bible by Allan A. Swenson I have been thinking about starting a Biblical garden in the back yard so I'm looking for ideas.
Polly, if you prefer inspirational or Christian literature, you might enjoy "The Wednesday Letters" by Jason Wright. It's about a family who gets together after their parents death, and discovers letters that their father wrote to their mother throughout the years. It's been popular here, and thought I'd mention it.
I am reading the true story of the Lawson family tragedy and its aftermath: "The Meaning of Our Tears" By Trudy J. Smith.
FOR ALL WHO ENJOY SUSPENSE (AND DOGS)... I'm about half way through Dean Koontz's new novel THE DARKEST NIGHT OF THE YEAR. It's a suspense novel like you'd expect from Koontz, but also highlights his other passion...golden retrievers. I'm really enjoying it.
I am reading a paper back book by William W.Johnstone.Its about the old mountain men in the high lonesome.
