Another New Book

I just found a new book when I was on one of my frequent trips to Barnes and Noble. Did I mention that I love book stores and libraries? There is just something about the smell of books, old and new. They feel comfortable, comforting, something; fellow bookies will agree!

Don't get me wrong, I love my kindle, when I'm traveling, it's great. I have an entire library in one book-sized object. But when it's rainy or cold or both, a blanket and a real book are just the thing to create that warm, cozy feeling.

Okay, back to my bookstore trip, I found a book by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason, The Rule of Four I found it because I was actually interested in Ian Caldwell's newest book, The Fifth Gospel; which, as it happened was out of stock.

I started reading it late last night. It's well written, but at 3 am, I had to give in to drooping eyelids. I'm not finished with it and have refrained from reading more today. I like to savor a good book, sort of like a glass of fine wine!

I haven't forgotten the The Book of Jubilees , I was just in the mood for something a little lighter. I will get back to it, I promise!

If you loved, The Da Vinci Code , pick this one up. You will love it too. It's about friends solving the mysteries of the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili . So far it's fun, intriguing with a bit of mystery. I can't wait to finish it, or I can. It's that good, that I want it to last.

I ordered The Fifth Gospel and 12.21 , Dustin Thomason's other book today from Amazon. Thanks to Amazon Prime , they will be here on Friday. Well, back to my book, a glass of wine and a quiet evening. Good Night!


P.S...I didn't know what the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili  was, so I googled it. It woke up a few brain cells in the memory department and I do remember learning something about it somewhere in some classroom, but if you need a refresher as I did, feel free to jump to more info here...Hypnerotomachia Poliphili
