T . G. I. F. Weekly
We're back!
So, I
changed over to the' It's Monday, What are you reading' for awhile, thinking it
would be more beneficial than this. Not by much and not for the amount of
work it took going to 60+ blogs and leaving at least semi-meaningful
comments. I would get maybe 2-8 visits in return. Not worth the
level of work right now. So this is back but with a twist.
For those
of you who don't know, TGIF Weekly is a Friday post where I share 3 books I
have sitting next to me that I want to read soon. My goal was to always
work on at least 1 of these books before the next Friday.
Well,
that still holds, but now YOU decide what book I read first. Leave a
comment saying which book you think I should focus on and next TGIF post I will
share a short blurb about what I think of the book. The blurb will only
be for the book most voted for in comments. *Please note that if a book is not read one week in may be on the list the following week*
And now....the books!

"An epic thriller of secrets, history and murder that will challenge how we think about who we are, and who we were.
THE REINCARNATIONIST is equal parts modern-day thriller, historical fiction and love story. With one foot in present-day Rome and New York and another in Rome some 1,600 years ago, my story is about two worlds consumed by the fires of intrigue and passion.
Photojournalist Josh Ryder survives a terrorist's bomb, only to be haunted by near hallucinatory memories of a past life in Rome as a pagan priest whose dangerous congress with Sabina, one of the Vestal Virgins, poses a transgression so serious the lovers will face a certain death if exposed. Scents of jasmine and sandalwood and images of furtive liaisons and violence descend on Josh at will, pulling him to an ancient yet strangely familiar Roman burial chamber harboring the remains of a woman clutching a wooden box.
