The tone (or maybe it's the ADA-ish feeling) makes it seem a bit like _Presumed Innocent_.

Listening: _The Rolling Stones_ by Robert Heinlein. Been zipping through Heinlein's juveniles again lately.

2013: 89 and counting.

I need the Cliffs Notes version, because I tried twice to read it---and could not get to page 100.

Long book, just over 750 pages long.

Near future thriller involving secret government lab. So far (193 pages in) so good.

I'm also reading "Mary and Lou and Rhoda and Ted" by Jennifer Keishin Armstrong. About the Mary Tyler Moore show. Also good.
