Tina's Reading Material

I read tons. Not tons, tons, but every night. I am finishing a book called "The Devil in the White City". It is about the Chicago Worlds Fair in the late 1800's and a serisal killer. It is non-fiction. I love to read. This book could have been very interesting, the facts regarding the construction of the fair, the horrible condition of Chicago and it's environs...and the existance of a serious serial killer could, should have made for never put it down reading....but i have been a bit dissapointed. It drags too much describing the problems facing the landscape and regular architects. The chapters about the serial killer and seperate, and far more interesting. This is just a general complaint of mine. I love the idea of settling into a new book. This one dissapointed. (so far)
