Over the last week or so I ha e started several post. One was the start of a post about genealogy while another was about goals and my January reading. In the second post I was bemoaning the day fact that I had not read very much.

At the time I had only read one book The Search for Splurt the second book in the Space Team series from Barry J Hutchinson. So I was one book behind the pace I need to maintain to reach my 2020 goal of 60 books read.

An Update on My 2020 Reads

I noted that even though I was behind I was in fact reading several other books at the same time. Since then I have finished two of those books. The books I finished were:

 The Birth of Loud: Leo Fender, Les Paul and the Guitar-Pioneering Rivalry that Shaped Rock ‘N Roll by Ian S Port and….

 Game of Snipers from Stephen Hunter.

Both  of the books were really good. I will try to write about both of the above books in more detail shortly. Currently, I am reading The Invited by Jennifer McMahon.

Book 4 -3:00 AM – Nick Pirog

However, being true to my ADD nature while perusing the books on sale from Bookbub I saw Nick Pirog’s name. I knew I had downloaded one of his book to my Kindle. When I went to check it I discover it was titled 3:00 AM and was the first book in Pirog’s Henry Bins series. I put it on my phone and started reading.  The story hooked me very quickly and because the book is only  100 pages I finished it pretty rapidly.

Henry Bins is an interesting character, who was pretty well developed in such a short  book. He suffers fron a disorder called Henry Bins (yes it’s named after him). Every night Henry wakes up every night at 3 am and he is awake for 1 hour. He then falls back to sleep at 4 am Sleeps for the next 23 hours. Kinda far-fetched but Pirog’s makes it work.

One night Henry hears a scream looking out his windows towards the house where the scream came from he sees a man leaving the house. The man is the President of the United States!

Soon Henry is pulled into a murder mystery, where at one point he is the main suspect. The question is, Can Henry solve the crime before he, the sole witness is eliminated?

Thoughts About 3:00 A.M. – Nick Pirog

Overall, 3:00 AM was a good read. Although, I did have a problem with the author’ handling of the behavior of a cat in the book. Having had many cars through the years and four currently, I have never seen one behave like the cat in this book! I wish they would though! But with that said I still give the books four stars out of five. And I’m looking forward to the next book 3:10 AM.

A Brief Summation

So as of today, I have finished four books and I think I am one book ahead of the pace I need to maintain to reach 60 books.  So check out! Any of the books I’ve read while I return to The Invited
