The Lesson of Her Death, by Jeffery Deaver

Now that I have my plugin issues fixed... we have books! Yay!

So, here we have a Jeffrey Deaver book that I finished a week or so ago. It's one of those books that's been sitting on my shelf for a while and have finally gotten around to reading. I really like Deaver and this one certainly wasn't an exception!

I have to say, he did a good job of psyching me out too. I was sure I knew who the killer was fairly early in the book... wrong! It also has some really interesting and well done characters with a variety of learning difficulties and ADD/ADHD variations.

Gathering Blue, by Lois Lowry

I had to pick up this book when I saw it at the book store because it's a companion to one of my all time favorite books "The Giver," also by Lois Lowry. The only thing I didn't like about it (or "The Giver" for that matter) was that when it ended I wanted to know more! I tend to think that's the mark of a good book. When it's finished you want it to keep going just so you can find out what happens to the characters next. What are they like when they grow up? Do they accomplish their dreams? Does it work out right or are there more problems?

It said in the back of the book that there's going to be a third book to kind of finish the "trilogy" that she's going after. I sure hope it's soon!
