2006: #10 – K is for Killer (Sue Grafton)

February 6, 2006January 15, 2021

Book #10 was K is for Killer, the 11th book in Sue Grafton’s Alphabet/Kinsey Millhone series. I still think she spends too much time describing settings. If I keep this pace up, I’ll hit 100 books in no time! Book count: 10 Pages in book: 307 Page count: 4,479 Words in book: 96,644 Word count:1,098,023 1,000,000 words surpassed — 2/2/06

2006: #9 – Memoirs of a Geisha (Arthur Golden)

February 2, 2006January 15, 2021

Book #9 was Memoirs of a Geisha, by Arthur Golden. I was expecting a lot from this book, and it delivered. I’m now looking forward to seeing the movie, and I hope they didn’t screw it up. Book count: 9 Pages in book: 434 Page count: 4,172 Words in book: 186,399 Word count:1,001,379 1,000,000 words surpassed — 2/2/06

2006: #8 – The Surgeon (Tess Gerritsen)

January 28, 2006January 15, 2021

Book #8 was The Surgeon, the first book in Tess Gerritsen’s Rizzoli & Isles series. I felt pretty “ho-hum” about this book. It was alright, but not so great that I’ll seek out more books by Tess Gerritsen. On to bigger and better things! Book count: 8 Pages in book: 368 Page count: 3,738 Words in book: 95,628 Word count:814,980

2006: #7 – Whiteout (Ken Follett)

January 26, 2006January 15, 2021

Book #7 of 2006 was Whiteout, by Ken Follett. I just can’t say enough about Ken Follett. Unfortunately, this is the last book of his I currently have!

This is the first of his

I really liked the heart of this book. I loved April and her unapologetic geekiness, and I liked what Dade has to say about body positivity, and that she wrote a male protagonist that walks the talk. What I wasn’t expecting was just how detailed into the fanfiction subculture this was going to go. It’s one of the few times I’ve started a book and
