13 Books I'm Taking with Me on Vacation Well, it might not be as bad as I’d feared. The towtruck guy doesn’t think it’s the clutch but the shifting stick that has come disconnected from the transmission (it’s in gear, unfortunately the gear it’s stuck in is Reverse). Either way I’m not leaving until Friday. Here is my Thursday 13. As promised, and not in any particular order. 1) The Da Vinci Code (by you know who *g*)- I know, but I keep catching the movie on TV and now they’ve got me curious. 2) Young Miles- Lois McMaster Bujold- Actually an omnibus that has the first three Miles books- lent to me by a friend and came highly recommended. 3) Moon Called- Patricia Briggs- Lots of blogging going on about this one. 4) Prince of Wolves- Susan Krinard- a different friend recommended her to me. 5) Stray- Rachel Vincent- looked interesting plus several blog mentions 6) Kitty Takes a Holiday- Carrie Vaughn- Read the first two and quite enjoyed them, looking forward to seeing what happens next. 7) Murder in Little Italy- Victoria Thompson- This mystery series totally rocks. Set in late 19th New York, great setting, wonderful characters. I’m actually rereading this one to get ready for… 8) Murder in China-Town- Victoria Thompson- I’ve been saving this for a special occasion *g*. I’ll try to read it slowly (yeah like that’s gonna happen). 9) Murder on the Ballarat Train- Kerry Greenwood- Set in post WWI Australia with a very cool main character, Phryne Fisher. I’m rereading this one to lead into… 10) The Green Mill Murder- Kerry Greenwood- haven’t read this one yet. Nor… 11) Death at Victoria Dock- Kerry Greenwood- this series makes me want to go visit down under. 12) Research Books- cause I’m always needing research books especially with… 13) Mine- Don’t know how much I’ll get done, hopefully enough that Sven doesn’t beat me when I get back. I’m coming back either the 11th or the 12th, but I’ll try to sneak in some internet time while I’m away. I’ll also be posting my Friday Snippet tomorrow, so I’ll see you then.
