My latest audio book is a repeat. I’m re-listening to the Odd Thomas series by Dean Koontz. Getting ready for the newest in the line, Odd Apocalypse, due out later this year. Listening to books works, worked, for me. When I was busy outside, taking care of a ranch, I carried a tape player and could easily go through three books a week. Then there were the trips to town that took an hour, each way. I’m not doing that anymore, but still find time to listen.

The upside has given me the opportunity to read. To hold a book in my hands and turn the pages. Yes, I have a Nook and a Kindle reader on my laptop. But I’m a diehard. I love the feel, scent, and look of a real book. (Although I do love the convenience of the Nook and Kindle!)
Currently the book I’m reading is Sincerely Louise, By Gloria Boyd. Just started so no comment so far.

I have also been honored to read drafts of fellow writers. I just finished HitMail dot com, by Russell Turney. Pay attention to that name. Russell is an author I predict you’ll be hearing a lot about in the near future.

Another author to keep a watch on is Cynthia Rogan. Her book, Symphony of Dreams, is available as an e-book and will soon be released in hard copy. Great story. Another book I was fortunate enough to read before any one else.

So what’s your summer line up look like? Mystery, Thriller, Paranormal, Science Fiction, Fantasy? Who’s your favorite author? Where’s your most comfy place to cuddle up and read? Or listen?
