The Usual Authors and Four DVDs

DVD

Body of Lies starring Angry Australian and Leonardo DiCaprio. Spy thriller with on the ground CIA agent being guided by his handler back in the U.S.

Choke starring Sam Rockwell and Anjelica Huston. Another bizarre tale by Chuck Palahniuk. Sex addict Victor cons restaurants by choking during dinner an deals with his "dying, delusional mother."

The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice starring Noah Wyle, Bob Newhart, Jane Curtin. The Librarian, Flynn, is sent to recover the Judas Chalice, is saved by good-looking French woman, gets ambushed by someone else, Flynn's life is in danger, the world is threatened, blah, blah, blah.

The Changeling starring Angelina Jolie, John Malkovich. Single mom in 1928 Los Angeles has son go missing. Police show up with different kid, say mom is crazy and stick her in an asylum. I think. That's what I remember hearing anyway.
Fortunately Jolie does not look like usual in this picture. Meaning she is not all skanky looking.

Fiction

Cream Puff Murder by Joanne Fluke. The typical mystery with recipes.

Dead Silence by Randy Wayne White. Doc Ford is in New York when his girlfriend, a Senator, drives up and is almost abducted. Instead a fourteen year old in town on a prize vacation is snatched. Ford looks for him.

Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult. Latest from Picoult. Judging from the cover I am guessing that some kid falls through ice and drowns.

Large Print

Promises in Death by J.D. Robb.

Night and Day by Robert B. Parker.
