Hey Sheila - Not sure why but I'll try to find out why and get back to you.

Just started reading it last night . . . This is Book 3 of the 'Harry Hole' series. Books ! & 2 have not been published for the US as of yet.

Finished read "The Age of Dreaming" by Nina Revoyr - 5 Stars!

Now reading "The Redbreast" by Jo Nesbo.
"The Redbreast won the Glass Key prize for the best Nordic crime novel when it was first published, and was subsequently voted Norway’s best crime novel. The Devil’s Star, Nesbø’s first novel featuring Harry Hole to be translated into English, marked Nesbø as a writer to watch in the ever more fashionable world of Nordic crime."

Also reading "The Things They Carried" by Tim O'Brien. The best book about the Viet Nam war that I have read. "The Things They Carried" carries not only the soldiers' intangible burdens - grief, terror, love, longing - but also the weight of memory, the terrible gravity of guilt."

Problem with my Yahoo! account, so had to re-enter all!
