Books

Blindness - Jose Saramago
This was a really fascinating story about an epidemic of blindness that affects an entire country, except one woman. It's a pretty dense read, but a very good one. Saramago never uses names for any of the characters, only descriptions, which adds an interesting perspective as well.
A Confederacy of Dunces - John Kennedy Toole
An absolutely hilarious romp through New Orleans with Ignatius J. Reilly as a pompus reader of Boethius who is completely incapable of interacting with modern society. This one had me laughing out loud on numerous occasions.
The Host - Stephenie Meyer
The Host is Stephenie Meyer's first adult novel. It is set in a time in the future where an alien parasite has taken over the human race, leaving a small band of people who have not been affected. The story is a great read as the human host struggles against the "soul" as they both stuggle for the ones they love.
Breaking Dawn - Stephenie Meyer
The fourth book in the Twilight series. This one had me laughing out loud at a number of places. It was a quick and entertaining read, but also the weakest effort of the series.
Ghostwalk - Rebecca Stott
An interesting novel about a historian researching the alchemy of Issac Newton. This one started very slow and had a tendency to be a little confusing in jumping around on the timeline, but once it found its stride, it was a quick race to the finish.
Eclipse - Stephenie Meyer
The third book in the Twilight series. I highly recommend the whole series so far.
New Moon - Stephenie Meyer
The 2nd book in the Twilight series. I read this one on the planes to and from Peru. Another excellent read.
The Undead Kama Sutra - Mario Acevedo
This is yet another hilarious vampire-alien romp by Mario. He's rapidly become one of my favorite authors for light, fun reading.
Twilight - Stephenie Meyer
A truly excellent page turner. I finished this entire book in about a week.
