In many of my classes we have discussions about books that we’re read and liked. I have received some excellent recommendations from students in classes about books they’re read and liked. There are authors that I might never have read had it not been for students suggestions. So, thanks to all of my students who have recommended good books and to those students who have given me books over the years. I appreciate it. I recently finished an audio book called, “Nine Dragons” by Michael Connelly. Loved it.
If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a hundred times, the more I quilt the more I give up my reading time. Since I love both I found that while I am sewing I can listen to audio books. I love it when I can get two things done at the same time. I also listen to audio books while I am doing my cardio workouts each morning and in the car. They are really good on long drives…..or short ones, or…….. When I was listening to this book I actually drove home the long way so I could listen to more of the book.
I have enjoyed all of Michael Connelly’s books with his character, Harry Bosch but this one really sucked me in. Harry investigates a murder involving the Chinese underworld. To the survivors he promises revenge and to bring the wrong doers to justice. While doing so his own family is in jeopardy. It will take you on a good thrill ride. There are some good twists and lots of suspense.
