I just finished reading a book about a serial killer called Kenneth Mcduff from texas and ive just started reading a book called infidel about a Muslim woman's life and breaking her chains and dumping religion. the first one was average but this one I can just tell is going to be a bloody great read after just a couple of pages.

Actually, re-reading, as the book goes so deep.. Appalachia, A History By John Alexander Williams, The University of North Carolina Press. ‘John chronicles four and a half centuries of the Appalachian past. Williams is professor of history at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC.'

From the West Coast, this is new territory for me. With family from this region, it’s a taste of what they lived through - and left.. Very academically written, thus necessitating two readings. Plus, I like to get my money's worth

The second book is streamed audio, my prefered way ‘to read.’ It’s The Lewis and Clark Journals, by Gary E. Moulton, read by Patrick Cullen. This is a long one … but I’ve got time.. Had recently finished the same Journals, though in book form and edited by Bernard DeVoto.

Again, from the West Coast, this became ‘our earliest white history.’ Had visited Fort Clatsop numerous times, prior to it’s fire and after it’s rebuilding.. The audio book also includes observations of several other expedition members, and an amazing adventure, again

I’m currently on Down and Out In Paris And London by George Orwell.

I’ve been threatening to do Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky forever so I might grapple with that after.

I prefer fiction....at the moment I’m reading The Redeemer by Jo Nesbo...a Norwegian author whom I really like. His hero/detective has the least inspiring name in fiction...Harry Hole..I do hope it means something else in Norwegian!
