Unfortunately I was not able to join in on my fun Wednesday memes.  Had appointments for in home medical care, which wiped me out.  The assessments went well, especially physical therapy, but they will be coming back 3 times a week to build up my muscles and wean me from the walker to a cane.  Even though it took a lot out of me and what they made me do increased my pain level, I was so happy to hear them say that I was so much better than the first discharge and felt that with future therapy I will become stronger.  Another good thing that came out of it was since my pain level increased, I was not able to sit in front of my computer but sat in my recliner, read and finished a book.  WooHoo…starting to get the ball rolling.  Review will be posted later today.  Now to today’s meme.

Today’s question:
God* comes to you and tells you that, from this day forward, you may only read ONE type of book–one genre–period, but you get to choose what it is. Classics, Science-Fiction, Mystery, Romance, Cookbooks, History, Business … you can choose, but you only get ONE.

What genre do you pick, and why?
  This one is easy, don’t even have to think twice.  It would be mystery/suspense.  I can’t even tell you how many years I have been reading this genre, trust me…it’s a lot.  I have been an avid reader as long as I can remember and have always gravitated to the mystery/suspense books.  I think I enjoy these books because I try to be a PI and figure out the ending.

  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:
  She was walking west, probably to grab a bite of lunch.  He put his van in gear and slowly followed.  A little ether on a handkerchief and the element of surprise would do the job nicely.

I am in Minneapolis, Minnesota with Detective Olivia Sutherland as she tries to track down a murderer or murderers that could also tie in to an arsonist. I am also eavesdropping into her personal life.

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about the war books
With yesterday being Anzac Day, I thought I’d ask a theme question this week. Are you a reader of war books? And if so, do you have any favourites?
  Not sure if this counts but the only “war book” that I read was The Diary of Anne Frank, which I read many years ago while in elementary school but it touched me so deeply that I still can recall the images that I created from reading the book.  It is definitely one of my all time favorites reads of my lifetime.
