I'm late in talking about my reading this summer, but definitely want to pass along some recommendations.
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
Yes, this book lives up to its hype. I strongly recommend this book as it is such a well-written mystery thriller! I couldn't put it down! The story resolves around a forty year old disappearance case and an unlikely journalist and socially inept woman working together to solve the mystery. I will warn you that some parts of this book are quite disturbing, but at the end of the day it is a great thriller novel and you must get out and read it yourself!!
Loving Frank by Nancy Horan
I first heard about this book from my college friends during one of their book club meetings. I was quite intrigued to read more about Frank Lloyd Wright and this book did not disappoint. While the story resolves more around Mamah Borthwick Cheney's viewpoint of their scandulous affair, there were some great insights into Frank. However the real joy of this book are the insights of a woman going after a freedom that was not accepted by society. I strongly recommend this book as well.
Happy Reading!
