I am "reading" two books right now:
Darkness on the Edge of Town... a book in the 4 book "Thriller" set I got at Amazon for $.99. It's ok but not as good as the first to books in this collection. It is moving much slower.
Along Came a Spider the first Alex Cross book by James Patterson. I saw the movie quite a while ago and have wanted to read the series for a while. I am actually consuming this as an audio book during my commutes. Frankly, after "reading" it up to this point, it seems like Morgan Freeman as Alex Cross was very bad casting. At least as to Alex's age and the way he is described in the book.
