Current "Reds"

Harry Potter - Order of the Phoenix: JK Rowling [***1/2]
700+ pages, weighty, fun, full of Hogwarts Elaboration... but it left me disappointed... I wanted more than a trivial 700 page filler between books 4 and 6 & 7. Set up nicely though.

Ghost Rider: Neil Peart [****]
How does a man survive the deaths of his daughter and wife within 11 months? He gets on a motorcycle and rides. Outstanding account of one man's struggle to exist.

Chasing Down the Dawn - Jewel [*****]
OK I'm a bit biased here. Big Jewel fan. Incredible insight into the dreams and motives of the singer/songwriter.
