Started this a while back and now I'm finishing it up. I have a lot of books sitting around with bookmarks at the halfway point that I abandoned when life got in the way, and I have a desire to finish them.

Same here. I don't abandon books, I just put them on hold.

Some intelligence agency spoof by Dan Brown. THE WHOLE TRUTH. It seems to be going around the pot a bit, so here's hoping I can finish it soon, like when I'm commuting because arms dealers and special agents aren't my thing.

"The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide" for probably the 10th time. I'm at the beginning of Alice's pages, which I've always found to be so scary. Page 120.

Publisher's description:

The Light of Day was the basis for Jules Dassin's classic film, Topkapi. When Arthur Abdel Simpson first spots Harper in the Athens airport, he recognizes him as a tourist unfamiliar with city and in need of a private driver. In other words, the perfect mark for Simpson's brand of entrepreneurship. But Harper proves to be more the spider than the fly when he catches Simpson riffling his wallet for traveler's checks. Soon Simpson finds himself blackmailed into driving a suspicious car across the Turkish border. Then, when he is caught again, this time by the police, he faces a choice: cooperate with the Turks and spy on his erstwhile colleagues or end up in one of Turkey's notorious prisons. The authorities suspect an attempted coup, but Harper and his gang of international jewel thieves have planned something both less sinister and much, much more audacious.

Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake. My third time reading it and it's still as good as I remember it.
