More of Big Lake.........

I was kind of bored with the internet last night, so I downloaded Nick Russell's second book in the Big Lake Series....  Big Lake Lynching.........

I can't call it a sequel...  Its more like a continuation....  The story picks up right where book one left off about a year or more later....  Of course by now the town had more new problems..



I did manage to go to bed about 12:30 last night by just turning off the computer...  By then I couldn't see very well to read the screen anyway as I had been looking at it for hours....

Nick does a much better job of not making the book choppy...  It flows from event to event without changing scenes in mid paragraph....   Not that the first book had anything wrong with it, but sometimes you had to stop and think about where you were now...  None of that in this second work...

And if you have read the first one and didn't like how it just abruptly ended, the second work answers all of the questions you were left with at the end of the first book....

Anyway this book was another page turner, without the reader (me) being able to put it away...

In other news around here the sun finally came out this afternoon......  Yay!!!

And right on cue, our yuppie neighbors came out in droves to mow their lawns.....  Seems like if one does it, it shames everyone else into the I can't be left behind attitude.........  I just sat and watched these folks out the window....  Of course I will have to go do it too, but maybe not in the first half hour of the sunshine......

I did ride the motorcycle over to the local Wendy's, but it was still a bit cool for a nice ride....  Tomorrow.....

  1. Thanks for the reminders of those e-books Rod. I'm just about finished reading my current book so I'll give these ones a try.

    Neighbourhoods are funny places sometimes - it's a lot like "monkey-see, monkey-do". Maybe it's better to be the Organ Grinder once in a while.
