Lin, ELLA MINNOW PEA might be a neat book and challenge for your accelerated class. I can see them trying to write a new sentence, with as few letters as possible to include the entire alphabet. Give it a look.

I'll do that. My kids all scored 4 and 5 on the exam. I'm over the moon!

Their being very sharp helped more, but Thanks!

I just started Unnatural Exposure which is another Patricia Cornwall/Kay Scarpetta. Serial killing with mutilation--great bedtime reading.

The Miami Mediterranean Diet by Dr. Ozner

Sophie's World, The History of Philosophy, by Jostein Gaarder

MISTRESS OF THE ART OF DEATH, by Ariana Franklin. Fascinating mystery. It is about a female forensic pathologist, practicing during the reign of Henry II of England.

The Flat Belly Diet (based upon the Mediterranean Diet)

p.s. I can't get through a novel right now since I am babysitting my 13 month old grandson everyday and he is in his extremely active stage--getting into everything).

Fine Mind · 07-27-2008, 04:37 AM

I finished UNNATURAL EXPOSURE. Not Cornwall's best as it limped its way to a (predictable) conclusion. I am ready to start the Rendell book.

belleadonna · 07-27-2008, 05:10 AM

World Without End by Ken Follett. It's his sequel to "Pillars of the Earth", an awesome book.

TurnNBurn · 07-27-2008, 08:44 PM

Three Cups of Tea, hard to get into but so worth it in the end and Ann Rice book, "Christ the Lord, the Road to Cana."

Looking for something else to read, since I finished those two on a flight back from Phila. I've read Follett's Pillars and am looking to find World Without End.

Turn and burn, Have you read SHADOW OF THE WIND? One of my favorites all time.

Oceans Apart: Karen Kingsbury
CAD, by Rachael F Heller and Richard Heller
Romancing your husband, by Debra White Smith
