What's everyone reading?
Hi everyone,
Thought I'd get my thread started here on what's everyone reading? I'm currently
reading John Grisham's "The Summons". It's very interesting and I hope to finish it
sometime today. What's on your coffee table, nightstand or end table?

I am enjoying the most interest book written by Mary Gabriel about a woman with
a hell-raising history. Among many other things, she was the first woman to ran
for President. She and her sister were the first women to open an office on Wall Street. Her life was like a live soap opera. She was ahead of her time and perhaps ahead of our own.
The title is Notorious Victoria. It is well research and rich in Victorian history.
I think men would find it as interesting as women do.

I am currently reading J.K. Rowling's, "The Casual Vacancy". It's better than it's title. And it's worth reading if you like to try to understand a little something about human interactions and maybe why we humans treat each other the way we do. Very interesting.

Killers of the Flower Moon - The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI
"In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage
Nation in Oklahoma. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed."
Interesting story of the attempt to steal the Osage's land with oil reserves.

The Clockmaker's Daughter. Kate Morton
This story moves through different times and told through different characters and is sometimes hard to follow but so far it is a very interesting story.

@nyadrn Hi, good to see you post here. The Clock Maker'sDaughter sounds good I think I will order from library. @TomD857140 Great suggestion, the Killers of the Flower Moon, I plan on ordering that one too.
I have been reading historical fiction by Anne O'Brien and and C W Gortner. They write novels about historical figures other writers have pretty much ignored.

I am re-reading Moon Hunt by W Michael Gear & Kathleen O'Neal Gear. This is the third novel in the Morning Star series. I went back to read the first & second novels again after reading the 4th novel because I forgot alot of the details. The series are fast paced, thrilling stories of mystery, historical facts and love.

Snowfly by Joseph Heywood, Once upon a River by Bonnie Jo Campbell, State University of Murder by Lev Raphael and Terminal Uprising by Jim C. Hines.
Snowfly is a teriffic parable about obsession.
...River is a mid-west noir of a girl's journey.
Lev's newest is a murder mystery amoung the dysfunctional faculty of a mid-west university... no M.S.U.
Uprising-- space janitors, 'nuff said.

I recently got interested in the New Sherlock Holmes stories that are written in the last ten years or so. The idea of Sherlock Holmes trying to solve the Jack the Ripper serial murders was intriguing, and I became hooked on this type of mystery story. I'm looking for more great mystery stories and hope that others can give me an idea where to go from here.

I am reading Star Path, a novel of North America's Forgotten Past by W Michael & Kathleen O'Neal Gear. This is the 4th book in the People of Cahokia series. Their books take me out of today's world and back to the pre-historic civilizations of our Native Americans.

I just finished Sharpe's Escape by Bernard Cornwell. It's historical fiction, which I love. Am now reading Dean Koontz's From the Corner of His Eye. On audio I'm listening to The Egyptian and on my Kindle, The Road to Ruin which is about an Italian who fought with the German army and, now that the war is over, is on his way home.
