Book Three: The Monster of Florence by Douglas Preston

Hi ladies. Ok, after MUCH internal debate I have selected the non-fiction crime story - The Monster of Florence by Douglas Preston. It has gotten rave reviews. I do not normally pick hardbacks because of the cost - but this one is available for only $15.59 on amazon.com (It was also an amazon best pick for June).

Also for those of you that enjoyed the historical aspect of last month's book - I highly recommend "Night" by Elie Wiesel - amazing book about a man's survival of the holocaust. (Winner of Noble Peace Prize and Oprah book club book too)

I think we talked about meeting at Queen of Sheba for some Ethiopian food. I'll confirm that later this month. Thanks and I hope we love it!

I cannot wait to read this book! I love a book that gives you a map of characters. Maybe I'll put off moving this weekend and just curl up and read :)
