July 2010 Books

I read 6 books this month. I don't seem to have as much time to read right now...

1) Broken - Karin Slaughter
2) Take Four (Above the Line Series) - Karen Kingsbury
3) The 9th Judgment - James Patterson w/Maxine Paetro
4) I Just Want You to Know - Kate Gosselin
5) One Night - Debbie Macomber
6) The Search - Nora Roberts

I think Slaughter is one of the best suspense writers out there today! I just love her books, and this was one of her best!

Karen Kingsbury's Above the Line Series has some characters in it from previous series. It's about Christian filmmakers who are trying to make Christian movies - an enjoyable series.

James Patterson continues his Women's Murder Club series with The 9th Judgment. I'm a big Patterson fan, though some of his latest books have been disappointing. Not this one though! Good read!

Macomber's books are always easy to read and fun.

Nora Robert's novel was one of her best. The main character was a search & rescue dog trainer, and I learned some great dog-training tricks!

Edited to add (thanks for the reminder Lenore): Gosselin's book was very interesting. For some reason, even though she's pretty much a train wreck, I find their lives interesting. She was very honest about her marriage/divorce issues.

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
