There are many different truths in history. Depends on whose doing the telling and what point of view they come from. Truth is all in perspective.

After reading a history of WWI, it was time for a little fiction. I'm a mystery fan and a very helpful lady at Borders suggested The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Steig Larson. Not one of my regular authors, never heard of him but what the heck, I was in the mood for something different.

Started it this morning with a pot of coffee and a nice Trini Coloniales. All of the Swedish names and locations was a little unusual. Interesting characters and after 80 pages I'm hooked. I'm eager to see where this thing goes.

One of the best books I read this year. We are reading it for our Mystery Book club in September. His next book comes out this week. What a shame we only have three from this brilliant writer.

Started A Drink Before the War by Dennis Lehane. I am not usually a fan of 1st person narration so we will see if he pulls it off.

Same thing the lady at Borders said.

I'm on a Chuck Klosterman kick lately and started "Killing Yourself to Live" today.

Also got "The Guns of August" by Barbara W. Tuchman but haven't started it yet.

A Drink Before the War was an excellent book for a first book in series. even better was the second Kenzie Gennaro book, Darkness Take My Hand. It was a great book. I can't wait to start the third book Sacred. First I have a library book to read. The State of Jones by Jenkins and Stauffer. A true account of a Mississippi man who was a Union sympathizer in the Civil War and his county that did not secede from the Union but formed its own state. Of course, the Confederacy disagreed with him.
