Lets get caught up on the reading list....
Swag (35) by Elmore Leonard, I love the Leonard books.. this was about 2 guys that go 'into businesses' robbing places.. they have 10 rules for sucess.. and their undoing is when they stop following them.
It is set in Detroit... part of the plot involves robbing Hudsons.. but the part that really got me was when the stole a car from the 'Sheraton Cadillac Hotel' which is the Book Cadillac.. book written in mid 70's.. the hotel was still in operation.. now it is sitting empty with people fighting to save it and to tear it down.
Westworld (36) Michael Crichton. I did not realize until I started this book that it was actually a screen play for a movie. Not a bad story, but a bit light... I like Crichton, I read the Terminal Man when I was in HS after seeing a bit of it featured in my Psy textbook.. and Andromdia Strain is a great movie...
Maximum Bob (37) Elmore Leonard. Another great Leonard book.. the emphasis is always on the characters... this has a bit of a twist to the end.
I am currently working on another Leonard book.. I guess I am on a fiction binge again.. but it is nice to read a fiction paperback while sitting in the sun.. isnt that what summer is all about? :)
