Aug 14 - 20, 2016

Fed, White, and Blue: Finding America with My Fork by Simon Majumdar - the author is probably best known for his appearances on The Food Network as a judge. The author of previous books combining travel and eating, he decided to explore becoming a US citizen by traveling the country eating and also discovering all the different cultures making up the country. Each chapter is a different area and has some history or cultural facts woven in. Finally, I know what keeping kosher is, I only had a vague idea before. A few PG-13 words and a couple of adult references.

See How They Run by Tom Bale - New parents Alice and Harry wake in the middle of the night to find three masked men in their bedroom asking questions they can't answer and threatening their baby. And then it's quite a thrill ride to the end. The only thing I didn't like was that the viewpoint changed abruptly sometimes. Some violence and child endangerment.
