RE: What Are You Reading Now
I think that's exactly what I did Laurie, though I may have read Brutus before Blood, can't remember. I know I read Manhunt first, and I agree completely with what you said about it. I had seen it and seen it in bookstores and finally thought I'd give it a shot. I figured the Lincoln Assassination had to be an interesting story, and all I knew about it was that he had been killed at Ford's Theater by the actor John Wilkes Booth, and that it took them a couple of weeks to catch Booth. I remember my 5th grade teacher telling us those things, and that was literally everything I knew about it. Manhunt was very easy to read, interesting enough, and it hit the highlights and then some. In my opinion, it's a very good gateway drug. Smile
