New Feature

A friend showed me a site this morning which enables me to show bits of my tbr with direct links to book descriptions. How cool is that! Just click on any of the books listed under TBR in the left column.

Martin Luther King Day

I have a dream today!

I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together."

The World According To Monsanto

For those of you interested in my last post, here is a link for a full documentary, The World According to Monsanto.

Petition

I came across some new info about genetically modified corn and a petition to have it taken off the market. If you're interested the info is HERE. With the the rates of autism , cancer, bowel problems and auto-immune disorders rising, the more people that are aware of the problems in our food supply the better.

Thriller and Suspense Challenge 2010

This is my last choice(I think!) for a 2010 reading challenge. The sub genres are listed on another site and the list is long so I'm just posting the link here.

The Dead Travel Fast by Deanna Raybourn

I just realized that there is a new book from Deanna Raybourn due out in 2010. Love the cover! I found the first books in her series toward the end of 2008 and it quickly became one of my favorite historical mystery series. This one's a stand alone, and although I wish it had been a continuation of the series, I loved the gothic style of her last book and this one promises more of the same. Click on the link for more info and a trailer, The Dead Travel Fast

Now if only we'd get the new Sarah Tolerance from Madeleine E. Robins or another C.J. Sansom. Who are some of your favorite historical mystery/thriller authors?

Reading For a Cure
