Today’s Question:
What’s the most useful book you’ve ever read? And, why?
  This is a tough question for me.  I don’t read self help or how to books.  So the only books I can think of are my text books from college.  Reading them, and of course the classes that I attended, helped me for when I had to take my state license test.  So the answer is college text books.

Teaser Tuesday

Hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading http://shouldbereading.wordpress.com/
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
*Grab your current read
*Open to a random page
*Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
*Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My Teaser:
  “Well, Mr. Shaw, as is generally the case when we have the discovery of a homicide victim, the suspect pool is initially deep and wide.  Are you in it?  Sure.  So are plenty of others, though.

From So Cold The River by Michael Koryta   page 257
I haven’t gotten that far yet but after finding this, I need to read a bit faster.
