7) The Rosewood Casket by Sharyn McCrumb. When old Mr. Stargill dies, his four boys have to build him a casket. But when the local wisewoman shows up with a box of bones, and the next farm over's foreclosure turns into an armed standoff, they have to put their differences aside. Amazingly good. (audio)
8) She Walks These Hills by Sharyn McCrumb. A journey of three mothers and a grad student in the mountains. Historical mystery combines with elderly runaway convict. Very good, but Norah Bonesteel feels like the plot-device to wrap everything up. (audio)
9) The Gospel According to Judas by Benjamin Iscariot. by Jeffrey Archer. Bible fanfiction, retelling the Gospel accounts of Jesus' life through the eyes of Judas, who in this version is not a betrayer, but simply trusted the wrong man to help protect his beloved teacher. It was interesting. (audio)
10) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling. Less annoying than I remember but badly in need of edits. The book gets rolling about half-way through. The saga of the last battle between Harry Potter and Voldemort. (audio)
11) Lando by Louis L'amour. Orlando Sackett moves west with a tinker, looking for his fortune. Gold hunting, finding his long lost father, spending years in a Mexican prison and other adventures try his mettle.
