True Crime …238/365
Posted by Christa Watson in My 365 on August 26, 2010
I LOVE BOOKSTORES! In fact, forget shoes or clothing stores, when I walk into a bookstore I have to physically hand over my wallet to someone I trust or else I will always walk out with a bag. My favorite section has to be True Crime. I’ve had a morbid curiosity to serial killers and the stories surrounding them.
Actually, it’s not only murder, but death in general I am interested in learning more about. I’ve always been intrigued by death, but one of the first books that got me really interested was written by the father of forensic anthropology and who helped found the “body farm” where they learned about all those signs of body decomposition you’ve ever seen on CSI. It’s a great book and was the start of my collection. I would highly recommend checking out Death’s Acre by William Bass (and trust me, it takes a lot for me to recommend a book.)

Eat Pray Love …221/365

Ever since my mom brought this book home I’ve been wanting to read it, just haven’t found time to give it my full attention. So I’m slowly getting through a book that should probably only take a weekend.
I can’t wait to see the movie once it’s out – although as it always goes, I’m sure the book is better than the movie…
