So my book last week was Real Murders by Charlaine Harris. I am filling in time with her other series since I have now read every Sookie book available. Real Murders is the first in the Aurora Teagarden series. Aurora (Roe to her friends) is a member of the Real Murders club - whose members meet monthly to discuss...real murders. Each member takes a turn outlining the case of an old murder. On the night of Roe's turn, a fellow member is found dead...in a manner that matches the very murder Roe was to discuss. It quickly becomes clear that the members of the club are being targeted...and Roe begins her own investigation.
I liked the book, and will probably continue reading the other books in the series, but it was not one that I found myself desperate to get hold of the next book. If they have it at the library on my next trip, I'll pick it up, but I don't think I'll be running out to buy a copy.
As a follow up to last week, I did make myself a list of 40 things to do before I turn 40. I am keeping notes on my activities and contemplating turning it into a book...assuming I actually do all 40 things. One item is to re-read Ulysses. That will not be one of my book-a-week books. If memory serves, it took me forever to read it for my senior seminar class in college.
This week I'm reading "A Version of the Truth" by Jennifer Kaufman and Karen Mack. It's my latest acquisition from paperbackswap.com
