Elmore Lenoard
Any recommendations on Elmore Leonard books? I used to read him all the time but got out of the habit. Last one I recall had a stewardess as one of the characters and, ultimately, was made into a movie.
Thanks |

The last thing I read from him was Hot Kid and I liked it quite a bit.

I second Hot Kid, and recommend its sequel, which I think is called Up in Honey's Room. Both excellent.
Cuba Libre Tishimongo Blues Pagan Babies, which involves Rwanda and is one of Leonard's more extraordinary explorations of a serious topic (and it's still Elmore Leonard!!). These are all excellent. |

Thanks, that was 'Rum Punch'. If you haven't read it, you might enjoy 'Stick' which was also made into a movie (same name back in the mid-80's)

I don't know if you have library access buy my library's ebook collection has a lot of his stuff. Maybe yours does, too.
