what I'm reading

I've had my fill of chick lit these days, and am currently reading all of Carl Hiaasen's books. What I love about Hiaasen is that even though all his novels have similarities, e.g. loner man who has been burned on love, woman who thought she was happy in the relationship that she was in before she met said loner man, environmental extremism ... they're all just so dissimilar beyond that.

Carl Hiassen has been with the Miami Herald since 1976 and doing investigative journalism since 1979. His novels are considered "environmental thrillers". What are environmental thrillers? Quite simply, very unique.

I started with Skinny Dip, Striptease (which I didn't realize the 1996 movie with Demi Moore was based on and will now have to see, boobs and all), Sick Puppy, Stormy Weather, and now I'm reading Native Tongue. I also read Hoot, his first children's book, years ago and didn't even realize it was a kid's book until I was done. It was that good.
