A Catskill Eagle, by Robert Parker

 
It just so happened I was in the middle of this book when the author passed away.  I still don't have any special fondness for these Spenser novels the way I do other mystery series, but they're entertaining enough.

Vanity Dies Hard, by Ruth Rendell

 
Although I started this short novel early in the week, I really didn't spend much time reading it until a rainy Sunday afternoon in Ocean City.  This was a fun read, but I had guessed at the major plot point very early on so none of it came as much of a surprise.  Still an enjoyable enough quick read.

From Doon With Death, by Ruth Rendell

First book of 2010 is a short one from Ruth Rendell. I'm down tot he last few book from the lot I won at a local auction house. I have at least two more Ruth Rendell books left, I'll probably hammer through these over the next few weeks before moving on to something else. Too much of my time has been taken up with the video game FallOut 3 on my PS3. I should be spending more time practicing guitar & reading.
