Hmmm.....
I already purchased Palimpsest and started it - intriguing - but the multiple story lines failed to hold my attention - I've put it on my list to try again. I usually read 3-4 books simultaneously - perhaps this made me lose sight of the plot line. Very well written though.
This week I've bought:
1. Casino Royale - saw a post somewhere mentioning Ian Fleming ebooks - it was fun to compare to the latest movie version. Classic tough guy fast read.
2. Endurance - the story of Ernest Shakleton's disaster - the writing was great but unfortunately the Kindle version was Topaz - yecchh!
3. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - OK, I read the postings here and couldn't resist - cute, but the jokes tend to drag on -- well, there really is only 1 joke, the zombies. But reading it did make my M.S. in English Lit sizzle at the edges.
4. Last Log of the Titanic - impulse click buy - actually pretty good - was watching a Discovery channel show on new theories of the wreck.
5. Can You Forgive Her? - I'm a life-long Trollope fan.
