How was Jonah’s book? I haven’t gotten for enough to be on #10 in the Dresden Files.

Where in the world did the last three months disappear to?
I am still reading “John Adams”; am two chapters into “The Last Patriot”; and thoroughly enjoyed “The Painted House”, by John Grisham.

I am in BAM at least 4 times a week. Have you found the trifold brochures that will give you $5 off a $25 purchase? 20% off can help. I get frequent e-mails that give the same.

I always have a book going in the car. Right now, I am listening to Newt's 'Day of Infamy'. I had already listened to 'Pearl Harbor'.
I love to listen to certain authors - James Patterson and his 'Alex Cross' novels, Clive Cussler, and Tony Hillerman.

I got interested in Christian fiction after getting an audiobook by Dee Henderson. I ended up reading all of her books, and going to to Terri Blackstock and Colleen Colbe. I had the chance to meet Kathy Herman at a book signing for her most recent series. I don’t care for romances of any kind, but I like mysteries, and those with medical tie-ins. Hannah Alexander is another one. That is a pseudonym for a husband-wife team. Most of their books are based in the Ozarks.

Are you on The Mayor’s ping list? I like to read his inspirational pings, and often copy them to my daughter.

I recently discovered that my library has a large type section. Gave it a try and found it so much more comfortable to read than traditional type. And it allows for a little more freedom of movement while reading in bed, too!

I love this site for the order of books.

'Epicenter' was almost scary, due to what is happening in our world today.

How was Jonahs book?
Quite informative. It makes the connections between fascism, communism, and socialism that we've all known has been there but that modern society has been brainwashed into believing doesn't exist. Mussolini, for example, was a big dog in the Italian socialist party long before he was fascist. His dad read Das Kapital to him when he was a boy for heaven's sakes. Similarly, the Nazi party was in no way an extreme right wing organization. The idea that an extreme rightist organization would believe in nationalizing industries is crazy anyway. Extreme rightism manifests most likely as anarchism, not statism (which is the extreme of the left). The Nazi party was hard leftist from day one, even the Nazis themselves believed that. In any case, I highly recommend "Liberal Fascism".
The Dresden books just get better as they go. It's a fun ride.

I'd highly recommend both, although they are completely different books.

No, I have not. When I was in my used book store the other day, another customer was commenting on him. I guess I will have to add him to my list.

I keep looking at the audio version of his book.
Have you read any of his new series yet - The Codex Files (I think)?
