Cherry Bomb by J.A. Konrath

Happy! Happy! Happy! How else can I describe how I felt when Cherry Bomb finally arrived in our interlibrary loan delivery. I, and probably many others out there who read J.A. Konrath's Jack Daniels series, have been anxiously awaiting a long YEAR to find out who died at the end of the last book. Talk about a cliffhanger!

Thank goodness, he didn't make us wait too long to find out. Cherry Bomb opens at the cemetery and I guess that's all I can tell you now. It would be so wrong to let you know on here. Suffice it to say that the evil serial killer Alex is still around and ready to murder again and as many people as she feels necessary until she gets to her true target!

I pretty much read the book straight thru and stayed up until I was done. It was totally worth it! Get ready for murder, monkeys and madness! Let me know what you think. I LOVE these books! Now I wait again......

Border Music by Robert James Waller

As I was browsing thru the stacks in our library I found a Robert James Waller book that I had not read--Border Music. He is the author of Bridges of Madison County and High Plains Tango. I loved those books and thought why not try this one. I was not disappointed, plus this is a definite case of you can't judge a book by it's cover. This one is not appealing to me in the least and I must admit, covers play a big factor in what I pick up to read.

Border Music is about a man who drifts thru life and happens upon a woman who he immediately falls for. They start to make a life together and then his past comes back to haunt their future.

I'm not sure how to describe it, but Waller has a way of writing that gets me everytime. It's like I "know" what he is writing about.
