Well, one more book down and I'm about a third of the way through one of my non-fictions.
I bought and read Obsession in Death by J.D. Robb today. Wow. It was really good. I've liked most of the books in the series, but I can honestly say this one is going to be in the top ten of them. It's very personal to Eve and the family she's built over the series. I like those. Since it just came out yesterday, I shall say no more, but I can chalk up Obsession in Death by J.D. Robb as my "book published this year". Started and finished on 2/11/2015.
The other one I'm reading is The Pox and the Covenant by Tony Williams. It's about the smallpox epidemic that hit Boston in 1721 that seems to be leading to the inoculation trend that I know John and Abigail Adams took advantage of for themselves and their own children. The surprising thing is that the cry for inoculations was started by a person I never expected: Cotton Mather. The book is quite interesting thus far and very readable, which is not always the case for history books.
