finished See No Evil last night and started on 27 by William Diehl right after that.
i felt that the former was pretty good though the timeline kept jumping back and forth a bit till i get pretty dizzy. but it was entertaining nonetheless.
as i was searching for review about 27, i just found out that Diehl passed away last year...

I liked it. A little slow in some parts and a hurried ending but overall pretty satisfying. I think it will make an interesting movie if they ever option it.
A friend lent it to me to read so my price ($0) made it quite worth it.

Finished: The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt by Edmund Morris
I am officially burned out on Presidential biographies (although I have the follow-up, Theodore Rex waiting for me on my nightstand).
Still reading:
Memoirs of a Geisha
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro

Just finished . . .

Another home run from the Hard Case crime line, from one of the fathers of noir.
Now I'm about 60 pages into . . .

F that pansy-boy Harry Potter crap, this is a man's book. This is like reading a Raymond Chandler book that was injected with crack & steroids. I love it, but it's way too short, I'll probably be finishing it in just one night.
