The Witch Elm by Tana French. It's here seventh novel and every single one is good.

I have Lethal White by Robert Galbraith (J K Rowlings) on hold at my library. Each one of that series so far has been noticeably better than the one before.

Oh, and this afternoon I'm going to see Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher books speak. Lucky me! I'm in Santa Fe, and it's at the Jean Cocteau theater here, which is owned by George RR Martin, a name that I'm sure is familiar to all. I'm pretty sure the format will be a conversation between George and Child. I've seen a bunch of authors there, mostly s-f ones, but George apparently knows everyone.

Incredibly enough, in a theater that seats 132, the event isn't sold out.
