Reading Log - Foreign Deceit, A David Wolf Mystery Thriller by Jeff Carson

Now that I'm living on the road with Brent for his job, I have a lot of time to fill.  You can only exercise so many hours each day.  I have figured that out.  So, I am rediscovering my love of reading.  I haven't read much in recent years because I was filling my time with other things; working full time, exercise and diet.  My mind was occupied to the point that I had a hard time settling down enough to focus on reading for leisure.

I have been a lifetime lover of reading.  Now I am enjoying it once more.  It may be for a season.  Whatever the case may be, I'm embracing it.

I just finished reading Foreign Deceit by Jeff Carson.  I love crime mysteries and this is a good one.  It's book one in a series.  The main character is a police officer in Colorado.  In this part of the series he travels to Italy to solve a mystery involving the death of his brother.

The story is engaging and I found it hard to put this book aside.  I recommend it for those who, like me enjoy murder mysteries.

The Simple Life - Breakthrough by Michael Grumley

Breakthrough is a sci-fi story where dolphins talk and aliens are hiding out at the bottom of the ocean.  What fun!  The main characters are endearing.  You want them to survive, win and end up together. 

John Clay works for the governmnt and Alison is a scientist.  These two are thrown together as the two story lines converge.  The two dolphins, Dirk and Sally are so cute and amazing that I worried all through the story that something might happen to them.

I enjoyed this story so much that as soon as I finished it I immediately bought the second book in the series, Leap, which I'm reading now.

I can't wait to see what new adventures lay ahead for this group.
