Reading List 2010

A list of books I've read recently.


All My Friends Are Going to Be Strangers, Larry McMurtry
I read this back in college, or just after, and really liked it. Liked it the second time, too. Reminds me in some ways of Strange Peaches. SP is about Dallas with more drugs and violence, and Friends is about Austin and a little more innocent, but in both cases you have these male narrators stumbling around with women, having adventures, traversing the country, and getting into trouble. And, of course, they both end up in Mexico at one point or another.

The next three were all books while I was traveling. I prefer mind candy when flying.
Visions in Death, J.D. Robb
Big Jack, J.D. Robb
Holiday in Death, J.D. Robb

I saw the movie Coco and read this after.
Coco Chanel: Her Life, Her Secrets, Marcel Haedrich

Found this on my book shelf and had no idea how it got there. Decided to read it and then sent it to Goodwill.
Running Scared, Elizabeth Lowell

I love me some Ursula LeGuin and really enjoyed both of these books.
The Beginning Place, Ursula LeGuin
City of Illusions, Ursula LeGuin
