I've decided that each month I should give a brief summary of the books I read that month as an overview of what I might recommend.
Power Play by Joseph Finder -- (first book I've read by this author) I might classify it as a corporate suspense novel; story of a corporate retreat at a hunting lodge where the company VIPs are taken hostage and saved by the low man on the totem pole. Really enjoyed!
Light in Shadow by Jayne Ann Krentz -- Romantic suspense; woman with hidden identity can sense emotions in the walls of a building and gets involved in a murder case. Good.
Truth or Dare by Jayne Ann Krentz -- Romantic suspense; follow-up novel to Light in Shadow. Not nearly as good.
Pandora's Daughter by Iris Johansen -- Romantic supernatural suspense; strange concept of a woman coming into her psychic powers being chased by crazed drug lord and killer. Usually like this author's books, but this one was a little too out there.
Protect and Defend by Vince Flynn -- Patriotic political thriller; Mitch Rapp is back and dangerous as ever! I love this series of books--makes you really wonder what is going on in our government.
Scarlet by Stephen R. Lawhead -- Historical fiction; Old Welsh retelling of Robin Hood--this is Book 2 and focuses on the character of Will Scarlet. Better than Book 1 (Hood)--loved it!
Stone Cold by David Baldacci -- (see previous review)
Carpe Demon: Adventures of a Demon-hunting Soccer Mom by Julie Kenner-- I picked this one up for fun to try out! The writing is not high quality, but the concept of the book is fun. Okay.

So good job on updating your blog, when are you going to give us our February reading list? I guess the month isn't over quite yet...so you have a couple days. I just started reading a book today that I got at the library and I think you would really like it so when I'm all done I'll let you know. There is a great chance you have already read it but, just imagine...me recommending a book to you. Wow that would be a first.
