I loved "Under the Dome!" I got it for my birthday last December. Even though it was really long, I read it in only a couple of weeks. I'm hoping a movie will be created!

I finished it and it really turned out differently than I thought it would--it was good right to the end.

Bought Stieg Larsson's Girl With the Dragon Tattoo for my trip to DE/PA last week, and I loved it so much that immediately after finishing it I went out and bought Girl Who Played With Fire. I'm halfway through with it and so far it is as good as the first! Now I'm afraid I won't be able to resist buying the newest one in hardback...Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. And to be honest, I think I might even read Larsson's biography, The Man Who Left Too Soon. I must say Larsson's short life was very intriguing and sounds like it could be part of one of his novels.

I've been reading "The Bike Path Rapist" - about a serial killer who raped and murdered women here in Buffalo for about 25 years.

My parents knew him, years ago lived in an apartment right upstairs from his sister. Dad used to play basketball with the guy and never thought there was anything strange about him, but mom always had bad vibes.

It's kind of creepy knowing my parents knew a serial killer.
