Just started the sequel to HALO called TARNISHED HALO by D.J. Stephens. Its a war time drama about a six man team of special opts sent to South East Asia in 1965 to terminate two of the Golden Triangles top drug lords. Wanted to read something really different this time around.

Cookie, how was Albom's latest booK? I've found the others to be most refreshing. Is it similar? I was so gald I'd read Tuesdays with Morrie before Mom became ill.It helped me learn to simply be with her when she was dying.

I liked it. I thought it was a good book about the human spirit.

Have a Little Faith - is that his latest?

Yes, I believe it is.

We went to B&N last night so Ross could get a new book. He got two and I got Have a Little Faith. I hope to finish one of the books I'm reading this weekend. This will be my next one. Looking forward to it. Thanks for letting me know about it.

"The Game of Life and How to Play It" by Florence Scovel Shinn is a thin, quick read, full of great thoughts. Best Wishes.

Anne, what a great idea to read to the elderly. I recall Edelweiss asking what she could read to her mom. The dog book sounds fun.

lindasusan, that sounds like a book I'd enjoy. I like reading non-fiction that suggests self-improvement.

You'll have to get a copy of your own.

Hello Ladies, I just downloaded Dog On It. I need some fun reading. Just finished:
1. Too Big To Fail - Andrew Ross Sarkin (so sad that big business is allowed to get away with personal greed at the expense of the small individual.)
2. Going Rogue Sarah Palin (I'm glad I decided to read it. I believed a lot of the negative PR. She changed my mind. I remember thinking that the media had a planned response for each answer she would choose.
3. Stones Into Schools by Greg Mortenson Not as good as the first but I still enjoyed it. Thanks to this forum, I read Three Cups of Tea and loved it.
4. The Head Trip by Jeff Warren Good
5. The Complete Idiot's Guide to String Theory by George Musser. I'll need to listen to this one several more times before I "get it".
6. Objection by Nancy Grace (I've never seen her show and didn't know what she was about. She advocates victims rights. I enjoyed it.)
bye! Lea
