KB Book of the Day
The Moon in Deep Winter
by Lee Polevoi

$0.99
Kindle Edition published 2008-01-10
Bestseller ranking: 460964

Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

I was always a wee bit intimidated to post on these monthly book threads since I don't read a ton of books each month (I'm amazed at the quantity some of you read - congrats!), but then decided it wasn't a contest and who cares, right?

1. Shutter Island~Dennis Lehane
2. The Postmistress~Sarah Blake (started then put aside for a March book club read -got back to it)
3. Going Gray~Anne Kreamer
4. Moloka'i~Alan Brennert

I've never done this but I'd like to participate.  Do I just come back here and edit every time I want to add another book I've read?

That's pretty much it.  You can include as much or as little detail as you want.  One of our wonderful numbers people comes along at the end of the month and does stats for us.  Just make to sure to edit your original post so you only have one message listing your books.  Some of us have had problems with long edits, so it's easier to add as you go along...

And no, it's not a contest.  Some of us have no kids and read light fiction for pleasure instead of TV.  So it's much easier to go through a lot of books.

I understand what you're saying, that is why I didn't see the movie, but finish the book. There are a lot of subtle things that are well written and worth reading.
I decided to finish the book - I just love all of the local references in Lehane's books.  They make me long for a Massachusetts holiday (maybe in Sept.)!

I LOVED that book.... one of the first I read on my Kindle.  Such a nice one to read when you have short waiting periods when running errands since it's broken up into "email chapters."  Cheesy

This is a great idea not to mention a good way of keeping up with what I've read for the month.

1.  Lady of Milkweed Manor - Julie Klassen (or was that in February?)
2.  Kindred in Death - J.D. Robb
3.  DEAD(ish) - Naomi Kramer - a super shortie from feedbooks
4.  The Snake, The Crocodile and the Dog - Elizabeth Peters - I ♥ this series but it isn't fast reading for me who has limited reading time anyway since the powers that be expect me to show up to work.    Roll Eyes
5.  Bloody Mary - J.A. Konrath

Would love to join you all for my first month and keep track.

Finished in March (Can't remember the dates, but I'll pay attention now with this!)
Circus of the Damned (Anita Blake Series book #3) - Laurell K Hamilton
The Lunatic Cafe (Anita Blake Series book #4) - Laurell K Hamilton
Bloody Bones (Anita Blake Series book #5) - Laurell K Hamilton

Currently reading
The Killing Dance (Anita Blake Series book #6) - Laurell K Hamilton - 19% complete (didn't do as much reading on my last business trip as I should have)

Dark Lover (Black Dagger brotherhood series) - J.R. ward - via DTB for bath time. Can't risk the Kindle in the water.

Anyone else see a trend here? I love this series and can't put it down. Here's hoping for a sale on Laurell K Hamilton books.
