these are the books i have read over the past couple of months. i actually listened to "kill the messenger" on cd when i drove to utah a couple of weeks ago, but i think that made it all that much better cause the guy who read was AMAZING! and i am not quite done with "the lost symbol". i saw "the lovely bones" in the theatre a few weeks ago. it was ok, just like the book. not my favorite. "the lost symbol" is mediocre. "kill the messenger"...phenomenal!
