Finished all the Robert Crais books and loved 'em - especially
the Elvis Cole / Joe Pike series. Now I'm on to Michael Connelly
starting with this book, his first, from 1992. Looking forward to
meet Harry Bosch. Thanks @Oregonian for the ideas

Love those, read them all. You may also like the Memory Man series by David Baldacci.

Or Joe Picket.

Or Mike Bowditch.

And of course, Walt Longmire.

Leephorn and Chee is also excellent.

And since you're reading Connelly, the Lincoln Lawyer series will come into play.

Yeah we read all the Baldacci's. My favorites were the Camel Club and Amos Decker (Memory Man) series.
Thanks for the tip about new (for me) authors - I appreciate that.
So far, Harry Bosch is proving a better investigator than Elvis Cole (no small feat) but he's also a very troubled man. Hope he gets some breaks going forward
Oh, and Annette (wife) just started on Brad Thor's Scott Harvath series.

Hey Redcarmoose, this evening I learned about a book entitled “Les Dîners de Gala” by Salvador Dali. I figured you‘d know about it for sure and you also most likely own a copy. I’m just curious to learn if you tried out one of the recipes in the book if you “do” own a copy.

Actually I did come across a couple Dali books when I was 16. That was in 1978, and I haven’t looked since. Mainly due to his style of writing uses a vocabulary separate from the common man. Where Huang’s book uses regular words to enlighten us with his genius?

I probably have to revisit Dali’s writing again, on second thought.

Ok, I thought for sure you’d have that book since you appear to be a Dali aficionado. I won’t pretend to know anything about Huang. I don’t. About Dali’s writing and using a vocabulary separate from the common man, is it in the same way James Joyce did with Ulysses and Finnegan’s wake ? [same idea ?]

I will check it out. But at the time of reading Dali I found the words he used different and difficult.......where I needed a dictionary to read a couple lines? Though I should try it out. I just found his visuals language much more accessible? But it is never to late to open a book! Thank-you.

Huang is basically describing the electronic world we live in, as well as taking the freedom to suggest a further path, maybe true maybe speculative? It’s not for everyone, also it is kind of a reference book, lending use for chapters and maybe not a front to back read?

After reading your reply it dawned on me that the author of the book you’re presently reading is most likely Huang ... and, sure enough. This subject/ field is beyond my comprehension as was math in school. I’ve learned my limitations a few years ago and learned to accept them. I’m sure though that it’s a fascinating read. Cool. Thanks for interaction on various interesting reading subjects.

Here is the book, don’t know if it’s your thing?

Thanks Redcarmoose, I really appreciate this. Just downloaded the link to my reading list on my iPad. I‘m certainly going to look at this. I may even get back to you on the subject if I get into it somewhat.

 

[Redcarmoose]

Well, I don’t know of anyone who is actually writing about his subject. If you want to know about fake memory cards he talks about them. He also talks about the whole quality reinforcement in China. He deals with many subjects too, which probably are not of interest to you. It’s really a reference book.

Oh? I see it really is a cook book. It may leave an indelible impression? Meaning I may not look at food the same way again?
