	11	L. A. Breakdown	Lou Mathews
	12	Sharp Objects	Gillian Flynn
	13	The Night Ranger	Alex Berenson
	14	The Movement of Stars	Amy Brill
	15	Hit Me	Lawrence Block

In February, I read a lot of actions books.  Hit Me by Block features Keller, one of my favorite fictional assassins.  This is the fifth book in the Hit series, and I can't wait for the next.  Lawrence Block is a master of suspense.  Gun Machine is a police procedural.  It's Ellis's second novel, he puts his background in graphic novels to great use in this gripping  story.  L.A. Breakdown has a lot of action, of a different kind.  It covers the L.A. street racing culture of the '60's.  An authentic read.

Don't miss The Night Ranger.  It's Berenson's seventh installment in the John Wells series.  Wells is a CIA deep cover operative, and he's a wonderful character.  I'd marry him!

I liked The Vanishing Act and Sharp Objects..  I loved The Movement of Stars by Amy Brill, an outstanding debut novel with a unique, strong woman at the main character.

February was a great month for reading.
