I finished Concrete Desert today, the first in a detective series by Jon Talton. I liked it - reminded me of Robert B. Parker a bit, who reminds me of Raymond Chandler (actually, Chandler reminded me of Parker when I read him, but chronologically I guess it should be the other way around).
I stopped at my favorite mystery bookstore today and poked around the used books corner. Paperbacks for $1 = love. I got a Robert B. Parker that's a standalone, All Our Yesterday's, and one of the Archie McNally mysteries. I need something that will take me two days to read, but not more than two days, since I leave for Japan soon! Would be kinda pointless to take a whole fourth book just so I could finish the last 50 pages. Not that I wouldn't give up clothes space for book, but when they start to fight with shoe space... I'm such a girl sometimes! :) I think I'll read the Archie McNally first, since it's short and I still have pack and do last minute errands, etc.
I love summer. Reading a novel in the middle of the day is the best feeling.
