Reading:
Catch Me, by Lisa Gardner - latest in the D.D. Warren series, a bit of a ho hum start
Taken, by Robert Crais - latest in the Elvis Cole/Joe Pike series, again, ho hum - maybe it's me?
Micro, by Michael Crichton - okay enough
Poison Flower, by Thomas Perry - another series, this one of Jane Whitefield. I really like the character, though the stories get a bit far-fetched.


Listening:
Just finished listening to Zero Day (Baldacci) and Victims (Jonathan Kellerman). Baldacci introduces his version of Jack Reacher. He's damn near a twin to Reacher. Victims was okay, but, as above, the latest in a series, and I think it's maybe a little tired. All the repeat characters are just so damned predictable.
