4. The Happiest Baby on the Block, Dr Harvey Karp. 260pp

Oooohkay. This guy had a lot of good things to say. However, he bordered on being egotistical, as well as using all kinds of ridiculous scenarios involving our "cave ancestors" that just made me unable to take him completely seriously. This I will say, however: I went ahead and swaddled Molly the other night for bed, she went down at 7.30ish, and there wasn't a peep from her until 6 this morning. I'm going to try it again tonight. Time will tell if this method is, indeed, as failproof as Dr Karp insists that it is.

(Since I wrote this, it was failproof until last night - she managed to wiggle her arms out.)

5. Patriarchs and Prophets, Ellen White. 764pp

This is the second time I've read all the way through. Lots of things to provoke me to deeper thought. Thoroughly enjoyed, again.

6. Eye of the Red Tsar, Sam Eastland. 265pp

I chose this as a Vine selection (Amazon Vine) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Even though this is fictional, anything to do with the Romanovs grabs my attention, and I found this a great combination of fact and fancy. It is not often that a contemporary author makes me want more, but I definitely do. Looking forward to the next book in the series!
