    Everything I have read for Micheal Crichton has been excellent with the possible exception of Rising Sun and the definite exception of Airframe.

    I have never read Chricton either. I've picked up books by him a few times, but was just unable to get into them.

    I've tried! Of course it might just have been timing. Sometimes that's the case with me. I'll try to read a book and years later I find I love it when I try again.

    Hi Becca,

    The last two books made my reading list because I was curious about what others close to me are reading these days.

    I like OUTLANDER but now I'm starting to think, "Really? Has anyone ever had that much sex that many times a day for that extended a period time without ever a day off?" The time travel aspect is quickly becoming the easier, less fantastical suspension of belief.

    Anyway, I'm only about half way done. We'll see what comes.
