Don's Pages - Books

While I'm still reading every page of the monthly Cycle Sport I've found that I finally have made more time to catch up on some reading. I'll continue to list what I'm currently reading on this page and store everything else on my completed books page.

What I'm reading now

 

The Sunne in Splendour by Sharon Kay Penman

I really have enjoyed the historical fiction taking place in the medieval era (i.e. Pillars of the Earth, Cathedral of the Sea, etc.) so Angela has recommended this one. It's got a 5 star average from Amazon readers. I'll be at this one for awhile considering the 900+ pages and very small font.

 
 
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

Been on my list for awhile and was able to borrow a copy from someone at work.
