Reading the Bible everyday is my 1st priority. Some of my fovorite books are To Kill a Mockingbird, Mosquito Coast, The Testament, Island of the Blue Dophins. Am not fond of romance novels. Will have to pick up Devils of the Deep Blue Sea before my cruise 2.5.09.

Hi All,

 

Just finished "Divine Justice" by Dave Baldacci and have Cross Country by James Patterson for the cruise in two weeks.

 

Anybody using an Ebook reader??? I'm tempted, need input. :confused:

The Stand is my favorite Stephen King book. I have read it six times. King is not just about horror. This is a very spiritual book about good and evil and the choices that people make as they choose those paths. It is a perfect seven day cruise book.

"the Moment You Were Gone"-Nicci Gerrard and "The Myth of You and Me" are great stories about friendship.

 

I love Faye Kellerman too.

 

TWG- absolutely agree about "The Stand" -very spiritual , as are many of King´s books.

 

Cruise Junky , what are the other 4 on your top 5 list?

I'll have to think about that, I just picked 5 off the top of my head. Pride and Prejudice would be up there. I also really enjoyed Pillars of the Earth. Let me think about the others.

"Blacklisted by History", The untold story of Senator Joe McCarthy and his fight against America's enemies, by H. Stanton Evans. I just began reading this 650 page book today; hence, I will not finish same until Monday. In a few days, I will explore both Frommer's and Berlitz's latest works on cruise ships etc.

[quote name='librarylady19']Loving Frank by Nancy Horan (a fictionalized account of Frank Lloyd Wright's long term affair with a neighbor) blew me away. Highly recommended![/quote]

Now this I have to check out, I am a great fan of Mr. Wright.
Oops I just realized it was a fictional book.
Did Mr. Wright have a real affair with a neighbor?
