I have recently read Margoux with and X, and that was a very good book, it's actually my favorite. I like interesting books like mysteries, action, and thrillers. That is an interesting book. You might want to read others by that author, Ron Koertge. His book strays about a 16 year old boy who loses both parents in a car accident really makes you think. What mysteries have you read?

Biography on Al Capone, I like it, it could be better. I'm into 1920 gangster books, movie, and other stuff like that I'm impressed. The 1920s were a very interesting period in US History. There is a book called Only Yesterday: An Informal History of the 1920s that you might enjoy. There are many gangsters from that period that also have biographies. Would you like to come in and look through ICEPAC to see what others you could read?

I currently just got done reading Harry Potter 7 for a second time. It's my favorite book of all of them. It's really sad though. I cried when she killed off so many of the main characters. But I won't ruin it. I recomend people read it. I had mixed feelings when I read it. I liked some parts but didn't like others. The ending definitely surprised me. I reread all the books every time a new one came out. There is another fantasy series dealing with magic called the Septimus Heap series. The first book is called Magyk. You might like this series.

The Righteous Men by Sam Bourne, I'm almost done. Are you enjoying it? Did you know Sam Bourne is the pseudonym for British journalist Jonathan Freedland? This is his first novel. I hadn't heard of him before.

I just finished up Stephen King's "Hearts in Atlantis" This is a diffrent type of book by Stephen King. Instead of weird and supernatural, it is a very calm book. I stay far away from Stephen King because I don't enjoy horror books. This one does sound much calmer. Do the five stories flow together or do they seem to be five separate stories in one book?
