Mail delivered and no books 🙁 So I have decided to read Vanished by Joseph Finder, which I won from The Book Trib and will go towards a few of the challenges I have signed up for.

Talking of challenges….I posted my first book for 2010…..and since there are overlaps to many…was wondering how you experienced book bloggers keep track of all your challenges, when do you do wrap ups, am I supposed to post a link for my review on the host’s page? Any suggestions and/or help would be helpful and greatly appreciated.

I am quite anxious today. In a little while I will be leaving to drive to a doctor’s appointment in the next state. I will, hopefully, find out if I am a candidate for an implantation of a spinal cord nerve stimulator. Even though this is a 2 part operation, it is the least risky of 3 procedures suggested to me by neurosurgeons.

Happy Monday Reading all…..

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about New Year reading.

With the New Year here already, do you have any reading resolutions or goals (challenges aside) for 2010? Perhaps a new author? Genre? Want to read more non-fiction? Write more reviews?
My Answer:
  Since I did sign up for the big challenge of 100+ books, my plans for 2010 is definitely read more, less time on the computer and less TV watching.  My TV is usually on even if I am readng.  I find that I can’t read if it is totally quiet so I have on one of the cable News channels with the volume low and will only watch and pay attention if it is a “Breaking News Alert”.

Most Likely To Die by Lisa Jackson, Wendy Corsi Staub, Beverly Barton (Rating 5)
EBook purchased by me
Twenty years ago at the Valentine’s Dance hosted by an all female small high school, St. Elizabeth’s there was a gruesome murder which was never solved. Since the school will be leveled, a small committee of alumnae are planning for their 20 yr reunion  even though they have never resolved their feelings of that night so long ago but then one by one they are dying, is it an accident or is it personal.
My Opinion:  Once again, Lisa Jackson delivers another fast paced, can’t put down, keep you guessing read.  I originally signed up for 5 books for the Lisa Jackson challenge hosted by J.Kaye Book Blog, and this was my 5th book, I will be reading more of her books because they are enjoyable and are the type of books that I like to read.  If you haven’t read her books and like suspense, this is an author you should read and maybe even sign up for the challenge.
