What Fiction are you reading this week, April 10, 2022? [View all]



Reading Cat Shout for Joy by Shirley Rousseau Murphy. A cat-centric cozy from 2016. So sweet, but also chilling as there is some real evil afoot in the tiny town of Molena Point.

Listening to Death of a Prankster by M.C. Beaton. "WHEN IT COMES TO MURDER, CONSTABLE HAMISH MACBETH CAN'T SEE THE JOKE." I sure do, though. This one is keeping me chuckling. As well as wondering whodunnit.

I really enjoyed seeing Ruth Ware in a Zoom interview. Delightful lady. She talked about her upcoming book, The It Girl. Sounds like it will be quite good. She says it is a love letter to librarians and booksellers who have influenced her life so profoundly and have always made it better. It's also "an unputdownable mystery."

Got anything unputdownable on your reading list this week?
