snurri1. Young Adult Novel by Daniel Pinkwater
2. Avilion by Robert Holdstock.
3. Passing by Nella Larsen.
4. A Little Yellow Dog by Walter Mosley.
5. Gone Fishin' by Walter Mosley.
6. Lavondyss by Robert Holdstock.
7. Bad Boy Brawly Brown by Walter Mosley.
8. The Devil's Alphabet by Daryl Gregory.
9. Eisenhower: A Soldier's Life by Carlo D'Este.
10. Six Easy Pieces: Easy Rawlins Stories by Walter Mosley. More Easy; I just can't stop with these. A book of short stories--and really there are seven, so the title is odd--written as bonus material for trade paperback editions of the early Rawlins mysteries; really, though, the stories add up to a novel. Easy's supporting cast shifts, grows, shrinks, changes, and continues to lead him into trouble. As more than one of them points out, though, Easy is a trouble magnet, and despite his oft-stated reluctance, a part of him only seems to come alive when danger is about. Just a few books are left in Easy's story; I'll be sorry for it to end.
