The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara kingsolver. Story about a missionary family who move to a small isolated village in the Belgian Congo in 1959 just before the Congolese begin their battle for independence from Belgium. Thus far the book is told from the viewpoint of the 4 daughters in the missionary family and its really fascinating.

The Strain Trilogy by Chuck Hogan and Guillermo del Toro .
I was reading the books concurrently with the FX tv series. The books suffers the same flaws as the show; some parts drag on and some parts are unnecessary while others were not fully developed. The authors should have condensed it into two books instead. All in all there were entertaining parts in the books, there are noticeable differences between the tv series and the books.

Hillary Clinton's "What Happened" - you needn't bother. Hillary spends a lot of words saying that nothing she or her team did is responsible for her loss. Note to Hillary, if you make other world leaders hate you enough that they spend time and money making sure you aren't elected - it is your fault. If you are rude enough and "privileged" enough that you make the FBI Director hate you and release information to the media - it is your fault.
Excellent book....
The ending kinda sucks.....but then after research I found out there is a sequel ....:clap2::clap2::clap2:
I am currently taking down the first Harry Hole novel, The Bat by Jo Nesbo. There was that disastrous movie The Snowman that came out so I decided to check out the book series. I am also checking out some entries in DC's Rebirth, nothing so far has wowed me except Bryan Hitch's Justice League of America and Gene Lang Yuen's New Super-Man.

I LOVED Born a Crime! I have just finished a Stephen King trilogy that I really enjoyed: Mr Mercedes, Finders Keepers & End of Watch. The other book I am reading right now is Tad Williams' "The Witchwood Crown", volume one of his NEW series "The Last Kings of Osten Ard". If you love epic fantasy & you haven't read his "Memory Sorrow & Thorn" trilogy, you are really missing out. George Martin cites it as a strong influence for Game of Thrones. Of course, I'm usually waiting impatiently for a new Lee Child novel too.
"The Art of War" is another issue you may enjoy.......Re-reading A Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi
Currently I'm reading a novel titled" How to Take a Crap in the Woods "..... No for real, it's actually a book!
