Last 5 I Read

i don't get to read many books, or at least as many as i would like to.  so, i try to be very selective with the ones i choose to make sure i choose wisely.

that said, here are my last 6:

i love Field of Dreams.  same author wrote this one.  it wasn't stellar, but had great... and weird... twists.


really liked this one a lot.  put a whole new fictional.... Biblically fictional... turn on Luke's life.  how the authors intertwine  Luke and Paul's lives is really neat.


this one was amazing and hilarious.  true stories from a lifelong funeral director.  a really fun read.


best baseball book that i have read in a long long time.  a really touching story from one of my favorite authors.  (this is neither a crime book or a legal thriller)


another absolutely fascinating baseball book.  this guy's life story is amazing.  he was abused as a child.  nearly died as a minor leaguer trying to swim across a river.  rejected numerous times during his  career.  and yet he's persevered.  a great read.


after reading this autobiography, i really feel like i understand Tony, which i didn't think i would ever say.  although this book gets long in places, it's a great telling of the 2011 season, plus memories from Tony's 30+ years in baseball.


READING NOW:
GREAT so far.  and a Macon County IL book too!!

happy reading.
