What Fiction are you reading this week, June 6, 2021? [View all]
Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are.
Still reading Greenwood. This book is about everything. Relationships and romance: family, gay, straight. Crime, Drug abuse. Ecology. History. Pandemics. Travel. Which is all pretty awesome. A great tale.
Still listening to The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman. This is a long one. But I absolutely love it. It should make for a really enjoyable TV series.
Hope you all are getting back into the swing of things. I'm still lying low. Home has always been my favorite place to be anyway. With my books. Although a beach would be nice, too.

I love Pendergast. Cabinet of Curiousities was won of the best books I have ever read.
