Hello insomnia my old friend...
At least I finished a few books in the last 36 hours:
In the Pelecanos books, I chuckled a bit to see the Quarry House make the occasional cameo appearance. I also smirked a bit at the offhand reference to the Royal Palace -- unnamed in the book, but unmistakable to anyone who knows the area -- although that's amusing for a totally different reason. (I'll take "literary references to dives I've been to and enjoyed" for $200 please, Alex.)
Okay, time to try (again) to get some sleep before the sun comes up enough that I have no hope of it at all.

- Dispatches from the Edge: A Memoir of War, Disasters, and Survival, Anderson Cooper. Navel-gazing from my favorite reporter.
- Right as Rain, George Pelecanos.
- Hell to Pay, George Pelecanos.

I've spent many an afternoon there. Alas, I don't think it's what it once was.
