Late start to this week's thread - but here it is!

I finished the Ann Cleeves book, Thin Air, yesterday. Another solid entry in her Shetland Island series, although nothing particularly outstanding about it. It took me all week to get through it - I guess I didn't find it very unput-downable. Still, I'm sure I'll keep reading this series as long as the author keeps adding to it.

I'm now reading Sweetland by Michael Crummey and I am thoroughly caught up in it. I'm very glad I took the chance. It's one of those books that drops you into a place so completely - in this case, a small island off the coast of Newfoundland - that when you look up from the page, you half expect to see the beaches and weathered buildings outside your own window. I'm a little over 100 pages in out of 318, enough to know that this is a very special read.

So, what are you reading this week?
