Book 19: Bad Luck and Trouble by Lee Child

Jack Reacher. Gotta read all of these.

Book 18: Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

I think this was my 3rd try at reading this book. It is good, but it's a little bit of a chore for me to read books that are this old. I'm not classy enough to dig the old flowery(?), elaborate type of writing. But the story is pretty awesome. And it's nothing like any of the Frankenstein movies I've seen, so that was a good surprise.

Book 16: Brother Odd by Dean Koontz

Another entry in the Odd Thomas series. Just as good and entertaining as the others. Odd is a great character.

Book 15: Hunted Past Reason by Richard Matheson

Not a great one. A man goes on a hiking trip with a "friend" who goes crazy and starts hunting the first guy. Hell House is the greatest Richard Matheson book I have read and it's far far superior to this.

Book 14: Godzilla On My Mind by William Tsutsui

This is a look at Godzilla and his impact on world culture. Some interesting stuff, but most of it is just highbrow philosophical junk. I would have been more interested in some actual facts about the films and Godzilla's history, but that's not what this was.
