hmmmm
ACP- I'm with you, Roberts is great for historical fiction. I haven't read Oliver Wiswell but Arundel, Rabble in Arms and Boone Island are among my favorite books and I reread them every few years. Lively Lady was ok, Northwest Passage is great too!
Recently I've read:
The Prince of Providence- a book about Mayor Buddy Cianci of Providence, great book about RI's favorite mayor and his downfall. Just think what could have been if Regan had chosen him over Bush for VP back in 80 LOL!
Mystic River- by Dennis LeHane- great quick read, and as usual, 10X better than the movie
Wealth and Democracy- Another awesome analysis from nixonite Kevin Phillips, very dry and wonkish, much more so than Politics of Rich and Poor. I still haven't finished it, it takes a while digest.
