NOVEMBER READS
"RABBIT RABBIT RABBIT"
Ahhhh, it's November when we honor our veterans and people seem to be good to one another. Many travel on a special November day to share a meal with others and to give thanks for blessings and share memories. Needless to say it's also a great month to curl up with a satisfying, thrilling book!
Stacked by my bed are COMMONWEALTH by Ann Patchett. Have only read half but hope to finish it eventually; TWO by TWO by Nicholas Sparks. Only have a couple chapters left and have enjoyed this tale of a dysfunctional marriage and a father's bonding with his six year old daughter; THE KEPT WOMAN by Karin Slaughter, a complex thriller which I haven't started; BEHIND CLOSED DOORS by B.A. Paris, a chilling debut novel that asks the question "The perfect marriage? or the perfect lie?" ; and the next to read is THE WHISTLER, John Grisham's new novel released last Tues. I'm taking another short trip late next week and won't have much reading time except on the flight. Will probably take THE WHISTLER along. Will be seeing five grands and four great-grands on this trip! We'll be celebrating Thanksgiving while I'm there as a grandson is leaving for the Gold Coast of Ghana to serve a two year mission. Am flying up to attend his farewell.
Happy reading, y'all! BTW, don't forget to set your clocks back next Sunday unless you live in AZ or such.

Read last night until 3:15 a.m. when I finished Jodi Picoult's latest book SMALL GREAT THINGS. She said in her author notes that for years she had wanted to write about racial discrimination. She finally did and did so with excellent disection of how and why it exists. I especially liked the medical scenerios and the court room interactions. I couldn't recommend THE WHISTLER by Grissom but can recommend Picoult's book as a well written book that will test your thoughts on morality.

I also enjoyed reading Small Great Things. Such a difficult subject, but the peek into how differently Ruth and Kennedy saw things was educational. The book did give me hope that someday we may actually get it right.
I am reading Jeffrey Archer's latest book, This Was A Man, the seventh and final volume of the Clifton Chronicles. Lots of intrigue, twists and turns, and an interesting read!
