SteveMcI is finished with Mrs, Presumed Dead (Mrs Pargeter, #2)
Another crime novel. Mrs Pargeter is a modern Miss Marple using her deceased husbands contacts to help solve mysteries. Pulp fiction.

SteveMcI is starting Every Tool's a Hammer: Life Is What You Make It
A quick read but some good insights into people and system management principles. Maybe get the guys at work to read.

An easy read and sheds a bit of light on the craziness of modern (?2000) Italy.

SteveMcI is finished with 400 Days
Not a bad detective novel but didn't really grab me. A pacey unexpected ending.

SteveMcI is finished with The God of Small Things
A chore but persisted. The last 1/3rd was better but didn't grab me. The story of different generations of an Indian family, the cast system and life.

SteveMcI is finished with The Daughters of Mars
A great and flowing emotional read. I will have to chase up more of Keneally's books. I like his style.

SteveMcI is reading The Timeless Land
A fiction written in the 40's that's a great insight into the views and thaughts of people involved in the first few years of settlement in Australia. The aboriginal viewpoint was well written. I enjoyed the read and will look at others she has written.

SteveMcI is starting Fatherhood: Stories about being a dad
A second reading and I still I enjoyed it. It bought up lots of good memories of my father. Loved the chapter "My Rife, My Pony and Me".
