Reading with Aunt B - Carnal Curiosity


Stone Barrington is back in "Carnal Curiosity" by Stuart Woods.   From the book jacket - "When Manhattan’s elite are beset by a series of clever crimes—and Stone is a material witness—he and his former partner Dino Bacchetti find themselves drawn into the world of high-end security and fraud, where insider knowledge and access are limited to a privileged few, and the wealthy are made vulnerable by the very systems meant to keep them safe."
This is an easy and entertaining book.

Reading with Aunt B - NYPD RED 2

I am half way through reading "NYPD Red 2" by James Patterson and Marshall Karp. From the book jacket - When NYPD Red arrives at a crime scene, everyone takes notice. Known as the protectors of the rich, famous, and connected, NYPD Red is the elite task force called in only for New York City's most high-profile crimes.
I am loving this book. It has an interesting story and characters.

I just finished  "Cut To The Bone" by Jefferson Bass. From the book jacket - "Jefferson Bass’s Cut to the Bone, the long-awaited prequel to his New York Times bestselling mystery series, turns the clock back to reveal the Body Farm's creation—and Dr. Bill Brockton's deadly duel with a serial killer."
This is the first book I've read in this series.  I can't wait to read the others.

Reading with Aunt B - What Are You Hungry For?

"What Are You Hungry For?   The Chopra Solution to Permanent Weight Loss, Well- Being, and Lightness of Soul" by Deepak Chopra promotes a mind - body approach as the key to lifelong well-being.  The book jacket description - Deepak Chopra creates a vision of weight loss based on a deeper awareness of why people overeat - because they are trying to find satisfaction and wind up using food as a substitute for real fulfillment.
I am enjoying reading this book.  It is easy to read but gives you lots to think about.

Reading with Aunt B - Cell

I'm reading "Cell" by Robin Cook.  I'm a big fan of  his books. In this medical thriller, there is a phone app called iDoc that is poised to take the place of your primary care doctor.  It's always available, never on vacation, and tailors the care to you.  What could be wrong with that?  Lots of things. I can't wait to finish reading this book.
