Found It! June Books

Not much time this morning, so here goes:

1.  Me, the Mob & the Music by Tommy James.  Eh.

2.  Coraline by Neil Gaiman.  The movie was very good, the book was better.  This is just a good story, Otter recommended it.

3.  Abandoned Tulsa by Zllison Zarrow.  Photographs of abandoned buildings, etc., in Tulsa.  Interesting.

4.  The Best Kind of Different, One Family's Jouney with Asperger's Syndrome by Shonda & Curt Shilling.  Curt Shilling is a pro baseball player, this is the family's story of years trying to figure out what was wrong with their son and then discovering that he had asperger's which is a form of autism.

5.  Inside the Hurricane, Face to Face with Nature's Deadliest Storms by Pete Davies.  Interesting, this is a factual story of a British reporter covering storm season one year.  Only problem - he needs to look at the map before he starts declaring what part of Texas is East and what part is West!

6.  Think no Evil by Jonas Beiller with Shawn Smucker.  This is about the shooting in the Amish schoolhouse a few years ago.  It was pretty well-written.

7.  Casting Off by Nicole R. Dickson.  Complete & Utter waste of time.  A sure sign of yarn addiction is getting books because they have yarn on the cover.  However, that doesn't make it a good book!

8.  Hello Georgeous! Beauty Products in American 40's - 60's by Rachel C. Weingarten.  This was funny, it's basically a collection of ads for beauty products and some of them are hilarious now.

9.  As If We Were Prey by Michael Delp.  Short stories, not impressed.

10.  Crack of Noon by Jerry Scott & Jim Borgman.  Zits comic book.  Funny.

11, 12, 13:  Batman

14.  Orlando Bloom has Ruined Everything - a Foxtrot Collection by Bill Amend.  Funny.

15.  Big Beastly Book of Bart Simpson.  Not a Simpsons fan but it was ok.

16.  Fugitive From the Cubicle Police, a Dilbert book by Scott Adams.  OK.

17.  Creepy Cute Crochet - Zombies, Ninjas, Robots & More!  by Christen Haden.  I'll buy this one.

18.  Trail of Blood, a Father, a Son & a Tell-Tale Crime Scene Investigations by Wanda Evans.  My notes say it's a true crime book and that I enjoyed it, but I don't remember it.

19.  Punk Rock Domestics, 54 projects by Heidi Minx.  Not impressed.

20.  61 Projects to Make with a Dead Computer by Randa Safan.  Not impressed.

21.  33 Questions about American History You're Not Supposed to Ask by Thomas E. Woods, Jr.  I already knew a lot of things that were in this book, it's interesting.

22.  Terror by Night, by Terry Caffey w/ James H. Pence.  True crime and a sad story.

23.  Teaching the Pig to Dance by Fred Thompson.  Autobiographical and good.

24, 25, 26, 27:  Batman

28.  Sweater Surgery, how to Make New Things with Old Sweaters by Stephanie Girard.  A few ideas.

Quite a few of the books on my list this month were either recommended by Otter or were in her stack of books.
