Reading Patricia Cornwell Postmortem, it's awkward when you already know a more mature version of something before you meet it in its less sure version. I mean I have read From Potter's Field and even a farther Trace, and now I can see where she came from. Indeed a best first novel.

Isn't she a Christian story writer? Read one of her books but was not impressed, I mean it was a lovely love story but after all the hype, I mean New York Times best selling author, I just felt disappointed.
If it were not hardback copy I would have suspected Onitcha and Aba did a number on the book.

Finished The Brief Wondrous Life Of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz a coupla days ago. Now reading Love and Obstacles by Aleksandar Hemon.

P.S: Aleksandar Hemon only learned English in his 20s and he's such a terrific writer that you won't believe it.

P.P.S: The first time time I read anything written by him was in this month a year ago. I read this memoir of his on Granta titled, 'If God Existed, He'd Be A Solid Midfielder'. It's a frigging brilliant piece.

Spillover: Animal Infections and the New Human Pandemic pg. 26

Exemplary science writer Quammen schools us in the fascinating if alarming facts about zoonotic diseases, animal infections that sicken humans, such as rabies, Ebola, influenza, and West Nile. Zoonoses can escalate rapidly into global pandemics when human-to-human transmission occurs, and Quammen wants us to understand disease dynamics and exactly what’s at stake. Drawing on the truly dramatic history of virology, he profiles brave and stubborn viral sleuths and recounts his own hair-raising field adventures, including helping capture large fruit bats in Bangladesh. Along the way, Quammen explains how devilishly difficult it is to trace the origins of a zoonosis and explicates the hidden process by which pathogens spill over from their respective reservoir hosts (water fowl, mosquitoes, pigs, bats, monkeys) and infect humans. We contract Lyme disease after it’s spread by black-legged ticks and white-footed mice, not white-tailed deer as commonly believed. The SARS epidemic involves China’s wild flavor trend and the eating of civets. Quammen’s revelatory, far-reaching investigation into AIDS begins in 1908 with a bloody encounter between a hunter and a chimpanzee in Cameroon. Zoonotic diseases are now on the rise due to our increasing population, deforestation, fragmented ecosystems, and factory farming. Quammen spent six years on this vital, in-depth tour de force in the hope that knowledge will engender preparedness. An essential work. --Donna Seaman

I rarely ever read non-fiction but I had to see what this religion is all about.
GOING CLEAR : Sciencetology,hollywood and the prison of belief by lawerence Wright.

Religion can be a dangerous tool in the hands of charismatic people.

There is also a documentary on youtube by HBO.
