LAST 6 BOOKS READ

1) Rum Punch by Elmore Leonard: This is the book the movie Jackie Brown was based on,
thought the character's last name is not Brown. But a still funny/serious story of cross &
double cross; if you liked the movie, read the book...read it even if you didn't like the movie.

2) Symphony For the Devil by Philip Norman: Yet another Rolling Stones bandography. But
no matter how many one reads, there always seems to be something new to learn.

3) Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett: Another Discworld novel. Granny Weatherwax attempts
to get the heroine training as a wizard(only men can be wizards).

4) Echoes Of the Sixties by Marti Childs & Jeff March: Profiles of 43 60s singers/bandmembers
from bands as diverse as the Tokens, the Angels, Beau Brummels, Sam the Sham, Gary Puckett, & Iron Butterfly. An interesting look at where some of these folks ended up.

5) Deadheads by Linda Kelly: Memories of the Grateful Dead as told friends, fans, & followers.

6) Etched In Ice by Michael McKinley: Subtitled 'A Tribute to Hockey's Defining Moments', an
interesting look at photos of events that defined hockey (duh!). Bobby Orr's flying goal is
probably the best known photo, but there's a lot of interesting pix for a hockey fan.
