I’m back! I had the best vacation ever for someone like me: a week in Key West. I sat in a hammock, in a lounge chair by the pool, drank cuba libres and read 6 books in 5 days. Pretty fantastic — especially since I managed to avoid getting sunburned!

Here’s what I read:

1. 1222 by Anne Holt

2. Buried on Avenue B by Peter de Jonge

3. Triburbia by Karl Taro Greenfeld

4. Lake Country by Sean Doolittle

5. Whiplash River by Lou Berney

6. Exponential Apocalypse: Dead Presidents by Eirik Gumeny

I’m nearly finished with Blind Goddess, the first novel by Anne Holt — I was taken enough with retired detective Hanne Wilhelmsen after reading 1222 that I picked up the earlier novel as well.

Some great reviews coming up! Be sure to check back.
