Covers Churchill's first year as prime minister. Wow...what a page turner. Impossible to put down.

Finally, finally, finished "The Gap" series.
My original comment stands - a good tale that could have been told in half the pages. I definitely felt there was a rush to "get the story told" at the end of the series. If Donaldson had been as compact with the other 4 ½ books as he was with the finale, it would have been great.
Up next, because I need a thriller:
Adam Cassidy is twenty-six and a low level employee at a high-tech corporation who hates his job. When he manipulates the system to do something nice for a friend, he finds himself charged with a crime. Corporate Security gives him a choice: prison - or become a spy in the headquarters of their chief competitor, Trion Systems.
They train him. They feed him inside information. Now, at Trion, he's a star, skyrocketing to the top. He finds he has talents he never knew he possessed. He's rich, drives a Porsche, lives in a fabulous apartment, and works directly for the CEO. He's dating the girl of his dreams.

This defines "Popcorn Book." A ton of fun, with a great twist at the end. If you're looking for some light reading, you'll enjoy this.

Looking forward to this one. I'm on the list for it at the local library. Might just buy a copy. I think hubby would enjoy it, too.

Yes, all the books I never post about are the ones I'm not reading.

Just started "Why We Sleep" this morning.
One of the most fascinating books I've read in a long time. I'm only about 1/6 of the way through it, but it's a great read. Very accessible to the non-scientist too.

I love Larson's books. I got hooked on them with "Devil in the White City."

Loved, just loved "Why We Sleep." It's amazing how the thinking about sleep has changed since I was in school.
Anyhow, up next - more popcorn:

George - not quite as well done as Why We Sleep, I would still recommend this one as well. Wish we were about 20 years younger.
