I picked this up on a whim... I had read the biography of John and Abigail Adams and thought this would be an excellent parallel. And it IS!

The Hunger Games. Saw the movie last summer but thought I would check out the book.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but the trilogy is really good.

I just started The Killer Wore Leather: A Mystery by Laura Antoniou. If you've ever been to a leather contest or a BDSM event, you'll love this book. I can't say yet how it holds up as a mystery, but Antoniou's keen eye and sharp wit note all the details of a leather pageant, from the behind-the-scenes workings of the event to the smorgasbord of BDSM identities and personalities.

I'm just two chapters into it, and there have been a few places where I laughed out loud at the dialogue-- not because it's farcical, but because it's so damned TRUE ("Go find boy Jack. No, the other boy Jack."). No master, slave or pony boy is safe from Antoniou's gentle jabs. But I also see a love for her characters, and am already invested. Going back to read more!

i'm about a quarter of the way into
confessions of an economic hit man - john perkins

incessant, vague, repetitive drivel

i'm convinced this book was written, with full consent of economic hit men everywhere, to undermine legitimate concerns about world banking policies
