1) Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Reread. Audio
2) Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Reread.
3) Jubal Sackett by Louis L'amour. Audio. Not bad but getting very farfetched. Starting in Carolina, marrying a Natchez Princess and fighting a mammoth in the foothills of the Sangre de Christo? Uh, I was with him until the Mammoth. Also, not interested in more books where all the malke characters have names but only one female character does. "The Punka Woman" and "Keokata's woman" were fine once, but these women were there ALL the time. They needed names.
4) The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon. Stephan King. TSTL. The first thing you do when lost is STAY PUT. Beyond that amazingly good, very creepy. Very much old-style King,
5) The Tao of Willie. Willie Nelson with Turk Pipkin. Entertaining and wise, I found myself taking it in small doses to better digest. If nothing else you'll come away with a few new jokes.
6) Captain Blood. Rafael Sabatinni. Turn of the century swashbuckler. Very fun. The remake MIGHT be good if they stick close to the book.
