Summer Reading

I have been doing a lot of reading these days with ebooks that I have downloaded and bought.

My summer reading picks are eclectic which range from Young Adults genre to dark and deep plots as well as light love and romance readings. I’ve been liking my picks and the series of small town romancws have gotten me hooked. Some of these are Fool’s Gold, Friday Harbor, Lucky Harbor, Animal Magnetism among others.

I also came across the term promise rings for her which, if I am a young woman and unmarried, I would have liked to have one, 😀

My eyebags have eyebags on it but I don’t mind. I even opened an account in Good Reads to keep track of the books I read online.

My current read: Chill Factor by Sandra Brown. I just finished her The Witness book.

Keep Track of Books You Read

I used to have this list of the books I own listed in my PDA. When the PDA became another one of those electronic junk, I stopped listing the books I’ve read. I wanted to rewrite my list but was too lazy to do so especially since I have moved my (hundreds of) books from the home library to the storage room.

Currently hooked on reading ebooks, i list down the books I have finished reading in my tablet’s notes. I also created an account in Goodreads.com to keep track of the list online. I know, too many things to remember to sign up but good thing there is a mobile app so I don’t need to sign in and log out everytime I need to use the site.

Currently reading: The Witness by Sandra Brown.

I hope I would be able to watch these episodes.

Rage by Jonathan Kellerman

Rage by Jonathan KellermanI just finished reading RAGE by  Jonathan Kellerman. This is just one of his many books that I have read.

Brilliantly written book, as always and Alex Delaware and Milo Sturgis did not fail to deliver. They are a great team that child molesters, murderers, sociopaths and criminals would not want to meet, even between pages of a book.

This book Rage had several twists and turns that I had to re-read several pages I have read through sleepy stupor. The plot thickens, so to speak, as more secret lives are revealed one after another while Alex deals with his personal relationship with Allison, another psychologist.  I am guessing they will end up breaking up or maybe they did already and I still have to get a book about it.

Learning disabilities as well as behavior problems were among the characteristics of the young people in this book apart from abandonment, lack of inadequate parenting and bad environment are just some of the contributing factors.

They probably do not even  think about hormonal acne here, like “regular” or typically developing teenagers because of their life situation.

There is this one thing though, I don’t think I understood the ending, it seems to have a “hanging” ending. I may have to re-read that part again later.

I stopped reading Jonathan Kellerman‘s book for a while because weird though it may seem, I feel behavioral changes in ME whenever I read his books. I tend to get less patient. Could it be that his well-written plots with psychological babble and sinister acts affect me so much that the gory details get to me?

I hope not. I feel I have to get those few books he wrote that I still have to read and I hope never to read about the Filipina maid or Filipina nurse again.
