Now reading "Kamp Knox" (Onland) by Arnaldur Indridason. Much, much better: a good book feels like a warm bath.Last edited by Brouwer; 15-05-2016, 09:22 PM.

Did I mention that I got my dad started on reading again. Yep, after a 16 year void - he quit smoking & decided that reading wasn't that much fun. Sad, really. He's on John Sanford's Lucas Davenport now awaiting the 9th book in the series 9-20. NEXT is Jack Reacher. He's already read the Clive Cussler Dirk Pitt books. He used to read ALL the time; he worked "7 on" (21days straight /split 7days 7afternoons 7midnights - then 7 off) Weird way to work --- weird way to grow up.
GOTTA LOVE THE SACRIFICES OUR PARENTS MADE :

Just finished Onland (Kamp Knox) by Arnaldur Indriðason, always a good read. Icelandic has a few extra letters like the 'ð' which is pronounced like th in the english word 'that'.
Now reading Murder House by James Patterson.

Tried reading The Boys in the Boat & just couldn't get into it. Book club is tonight & I only made it about 100 pages in before giving up.
Finished Water from my Heart by Charles Martin for another book club...great story! I recommend this one. From Amazon....Charlie Finn had to grow up fast, living alone by age sixteen. Highly intelligent, he earned a life-changing scholarship to Harvard, where he learned how to survive and thrive on the outskirts of privileged society. That skill served him well in the cutthroat business world, as it does in more lucrative but dangerous ventures he now operates off the coast of Miami. Charlie tries to separate relationships from work. But when his choices produce devastating consequences, he sets out to right wrongs, traveling to Central America where he will meet those who have paid for his actions, including a woman and her young daughter. Will their fated encounter present Charlie with a way to seek the redemption he thought was impossible--and free his heart to love one woman as he never knew he could?
