    Here's one of his better ones - "I'm Wrong About Everything," which was on the "High Fidelity" soundtrack.



    Just had the "Charles Jessold" sample sent to my Kindle.

    Let me add big thumbs up to "Monster of Florence."

    I downloaded "Charles Jessold" to my nook library.

    Am flying through "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett. Well-written book and the trailer for the upcoming movie looks fantastic.

    Last night, I finished "Lost in Shangri-La" by Mitchell Zuckoff. It's the true story of the rescue mission to save the survivors of a military sightseeing plane crash on New Guinea during World War II. Fascinating and a very easy read.

    Agreed. Both the Leopold and Loeb book and the Monster of Florence were fantastic.

    Finished The Extra 2% over the weekend, about how the Devil Rays. ...OK, the Rays. ...went from crap to not crap. Pretty good book, I question how innovative the things they're doing these days are compared to other teams. Obviously it's working (they have 12 picks in the first 100 this year). Likely they're just doing things better than most teams.

    Even more kudos for "Moster of Florence." As good as any of the murder-mystery fiction novels I have read.

    I got it on Saturday. I have to finish the book I'm reading first, but I'm really looking forward to it.
