Books I Just Read About And You Didn't?!!!

Fathers Day is a month away. A good one for any Dad type who is a reader! The estate of Ian Flemming invited Sebastian Faulks(author of one of my favorite books,Charlotte Gray)to write a new Bond book. the result is cold war thriller
Devil May Care.
Young and old moms among us might enjoy The Ten year Nap by Meg Wolitzer. the story of woman who get off the work track and stay home with the kids.
The Unit Ninni Holmquist-Sort of science fiction in the Margaret Atwood style. A dystopian society does away with people over 50..Slowly,organ by organ!
A Short History Of Woman- Kate Walbert.... One family's five generations of woman's struggles. Told in vinettes.
The Wordy Shipmates Sarah Vowell- Well researched book about some unknown historical facts. Puritans apparently go wild in the new world?
