Book Recommendation

I recommend only books that I found not-put-downable, and I recommend What the Dead Know by Laura Lippman. This book came with me to the dinner table, and I didn't put it down to go to sleep but fell asleep with it in my lap (so lost my place and left the light on). It's not great literature, but I enjoyed it.

What the Dead Know is about a woman who claims to be one of two sisters who disappeared in 1975, the five-day investigation into her story, and memories. She's so mysterious, you'll be trying to figure her out and changing what you think every couple of pages.

Good book

Thanks. I just finished Schindler's List (then rented the movie to see it again). After reading the book, I recommend it to everyone. Even if you have seen the movie.

Thanks for the recommendation. Yes, it was sunny for a change in Michigan yesterday, and it's gorgeous outside again right now! Yippee - winter is finally over.
