Wow, some good books, Byron! I'm afraid I've been reading a lot of fluff in comparison!
Just finished:
Innocent Traitor: A Novel of Lady Jane Grey by Alison Weir
Historical fiction about the British royalty a la Philippa Gregory (apologies to the author who is probably tired of that comparison). Viewpoint shifts throughout the book. I liked it. 402 pages.
Rumors by Anna Godbersen
The second in the Luxe series. Set largely in Manhattan in 1899. I liked it and the last 100 pages or so were really engrossing -- you are pretty sure one bad thing is going to happen, but you (or at least I) thought the other was going to be okay.... young adult fiction. 423 pages.
What Was Lost by Catherine O'Flynn
I liked this one. Set in England in the 80's and more or less now. a young girl father dies soon after giving her a book on how to be a detective. She begins to watch/shadow people in her neighborhood and at the new nearby mall. She has a friendship with a young man in her neighborhood and when she disappears, he is suspected. A first novel. 246 pages.
The Sun, July 2008.
Read this while waiting for jury duty. Now I need to get to the August one! 48 pages.
