      I was trying to read the Bourne Betrayal but I had to give up after the first chapter. I've always loved Robert Ludlum's Bourne series, but these are done by someone named Eric Van Lustbader, and he does -not- live up to the name.

            Almost done reading the second of two biographies of Douglas ("The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy") Adams, Nick Webb's "Wish You Were Here." That was preceded by M.J. Simpson's "Hitchhiker." It works well to read them both, as Simpson takes a linear approach to Adams's life and work, while Webb is more lateral.

                    I suggest you get some of Von Lustbader's older books - you might change your opinion. and Ludlum's early books (written when he was ALIVE) are better than the last of the Bourne series (written after he died).

                          I just finished “Thousand Splendid Suns” still trying to recover…I think I liked it as much as “Kite Runner”.

                              The Ultimate Guide to Masonry and Concrete because I think it will be easy to build a hollow tile wall after I read it.
