What Fiction are you reading this week, November 13, 2022? [View all]

Thank you, Democrats. Well done!!


Temps here running way below normal. This looks nice.

Reading The Bone Garden by Kate Ellis. the 5th Wesley Peterson Crime Novel. Just started it but I can tell this will be another of Ellis's well written and interesting plots. A few pages in and we already have a mysterious phone call and 3 dead bodies.

Listening to Where'd You Go, Bernadette? by Maria Semple. This has been hailed as hysterically funny and I have been on the waiting list for it for quite some time. I can see how in 2012, when it came out, it would have really been a riot. Now, though, while it's still good for a chuckle, making fun of Microsoft and IT just doesn't seem quite so laughable.

What interesting books are you reading this week?
