The Pluto Files was such a breath of fresh air for me. I had been reading James Patterson books (the first and second of the Alex Cross series and the first of the women's murder club) and I disliked them all. I know that they're best sellers and all, but I just found it trite and slow-paced.
So when I finally sat down and read that one, it was so nice. In interviews Neil deGrasse Tyson is so funny, so I was thankful his books continued to express his good-natured humour. I'm going to start his other book as soon as I finish Obama's Dreams From My Father. Tyson's other book is Death by Black Hole. Can't wait!
(Uh oh. I just totally showed my secret dorkiness into loving space and stuff. I have to learn to keep that hidden!
)
I've never thought about reading any of the Pulitzer Prize winners ... I don't know why. I'll definitely have to give those books a go!
... and the book list continues to grow.
