10. "Five Days at Memorial" by Sheri Fink *Sorry, guess this should go under Nonfiction*

About the horrific events there during Hurricane Katrina. Tough slow going, but very well written.

Just finished "The Harlot's Tale" by Sam Thomas. A light-reading mystery centered on the life of a 1600s-era midwife. Apparently part two in a series, but for some reason my library (where I found it) does not have the first installment, but it was OK as a stand alone. Not exeptional, to be honest, but an enjoyable read.

Next up is "The Secret History" by Donna Tartt, since I just finished "The Goldfinch" and was very impressed by her writing.
