Wet Desert by Gary Hansen - I started this book thinking the writing wasn't very good (the author's first book) but then got caught up in the action. A terrorist blows up a dam on the Colorado River and several stories intertwine as people try to escape the flood or solve the problem.
3 stars

The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt - a 13 year old boy is left parentless when his mother is killed in an explosion at a museum. He's shunted from family to family and basically left to raise himself. A 771 page book that just kept me reading and reading.Language and unsavory happenings.
5 stars*
I think I'm the only one of my blog readers that would give this 5 stars.
