Weekend Book Recommendations!

Still love books. Here are some more for you to love too. That is all.


Shark River (Randy Wayne White): #8 in a series, but they read easily out of order since the narrator (full-time marine biologist/part-time knight errant) is always alluding to things that happened in previous books or distant past. This one involves a Jamaican woman claiming to be his sister, an interrupted kidnapping, and the main character's usual slightly-excessive soul searching, but it's worth reading just for the descriptions of the Florida Keys scenery.


The Man With the Golden Torc (Simon Green): Adventures of a secret agent-boogie man hunter. Funny if implausible, have heard Green's other series is better but I thought this book (1st in its series) was great. The whole series is named after Bond movies, which is also good.


The Sign for Drowning (Rachel Stolzman): A sign language interpreter adopts a Deaf girl and finds some closure for her sister's childhood drowning. No tissues required: simple but interesting plot, low-drama daily life, and even has a happy ending.
