16. About 1/4 way through "Draft Animals" by Phil Gaimon (non fiction)

That was part one titled "Life in the Post-Dopocalypse" the era of pro-cycling post Lance Armstrong et al. Dark times for the sport as sponsors dropped out for fear of being tainted. Anyway it is a good read so far.

I finished Lincoln Child's Full Wolf Moon which was a fast read but did not really grab me like the books he wrote with Douglas Preston. Douglas' The Lost City of the Monkey God was gripping as were the Pendegast novels.

When I finish with this I may be reading another Connelly mystery. I don't have it handy or the title in my memory.
