Just finished 'Sputnik sweetheart' by Haruki Murakami. While i'm not 100% sure what was it all about but it was a great book anyway. Surely gives a lot to think about for days to come. And that is what all the great books are.

Many books, I love them all.
For us Geezers, Old Mans War is a great start! Join the Army at 75?? Riiiight! A lot of good quips, philosophy, and a lot of action!
the series is great!

Just finished re-reading "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" which, having recently visited Savannah, seemed like the appropriate thing to do.
Next up: the new Ian Rankin, "Saints of the Shadow Bible"
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
