3. On a few this week :-(

Just finished listening to Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett. I think it took about as long as it took to build the cathedral in the story. Great story.

Also, just finished listening to The Test by Sylvain Neuvel. More of a short story. What a story, though. Describing it will create spoilers. It's something of a rollercoaster of a short story about a novel approach to becoming a citizen in the UK. It's short, but it will leave you reeling.

Will now finish up reading Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone. You know, sometimes you just need, and can enjoy, a good sociopath.

And, finally, just started listening to The Lost Man by Australian writer Jane Harper. I loved her first two books, the beginnings of what I hope will be a cop series. This one is standalone. She brings the Australian outback to life. If she hasn't actually lived it, she certainly has done her homework (or at least it seems that way - I have never been to Australia). She is wonderful at creating characters, dialog is smooth, relationships intense, and more. Add her to your must-read lists.
