Have a happy President's Day
Reading A World of Curiosities by Louise Penny, published last November. I was on a long waiting list for this and was quite pleasantly surprised to get an email saying it was at the library waiting for me. I started reading it Friday night and it is so excellent that I did not want to put it down and I'm already halfway through the 400 pages. Now I understand why I got it so quickly. Readers are devouring it in just a few days time. Over 3,000 reviews can already be found on Good Reads. I was a little confused at the beginning but then the pieces all started falling into place and I was totally astounded by the brilliance of the story and the writing and how the events were affecting me. And I can't really tell you anything about it because I don't want to spoil any of the surprises.
Listening to The Old Man by Thomas Perry, a suspense thriller from 2017. Dan Chase, a sixty-year-old widower, must reawaken his survival instincts to contend with the history he has spent his adult life trying to escape. Armed mercenaries, spectacularly crashed cars, a precarious love interest, and an unforgettable chase scene are keeping readers glued to their seats. A very popular novel.
