I think that will be my favorite of 2019, even after another 363 days.

In real books, I just started "The Tattooist of Auschwitz".

Picked it up on holiday. We shop when it rains so we had ample time to browse, plus we tend to frequent book stores both used and new. Never get out of one without spending $100 or more for the 4 of us.
