The Stand, by Stephen King. What happens after a military virus accidentally kills off most of the population. Only my third King book.
The Alexandria Link, by Steve Berry. Second book in the Cotton Malone series. Similar to Dan Brown’s Robert Langdon series. Berry is a resident of Camden, SC, so perhaps I can run into him someday.
Mary and Lou and Rhoda and Ted: and all the Brilliant Minds who made the Mary Tyler Moore Show a Classic, by Jennifer Keishen Armstrong. Inside look at one of the greatest sitcoms ever, with emphasis on the groundbreaking female writers.
The System: the Glory and Scandal of Big Time College Football, by Armen Keteyian and Jeff Benedict. Fascinating look at the college football machine from several viewpoints, including coaches, AD’s, players, broadcasters, and boosters.
Bruce, by Peter Ames Carlin. Lots of info about The Boss, including how he got his nickname and what he thinks about it.
My Planet: Finding Humor in the Oddest Places, by Mary Roach. OK funny but not Billy Crystal funny.
Fairy Tale Interrupted: a Memoir of Love, Life, and Loss by RoseMarie Terenzio. Revealing inside look at JFK Jr and his wife Carolyn by John John’s personal assistant.
The MayFlower: a Story of Courage, Community, and War, by Nathan Philbrick. Details about the “pilgrims” – like how no passengers or crew from the Mayflower made mention of a rock when they landed at Plymouth Harbor.
