Speaking of books

[withm]

I am about 1/4 through reading Laura Hildenbrand's Unbroken on my Kindle - fascinating story!

In the car I am listening to, and about halfway through, Ken Follet's World Without End - the sequel to his equally lengthy Pillars of the Earth. This audio book is on 36 CDs! I think it's a new record for long books for me. Very interesting story, but I think I liked Pillars better.

In the last couple of months I have read Franzen's Freedom, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Bill Bryson's At Home but did not enjoy them so much as I had expected to.

I really liked The Girl Who Played with Fire, My Nine Lives (Leon Fleischer autobiography) and The Thousand Autums of Jacob de Zoet
