What Fiction are you reading this week, October 28, 2018? [View all]

Some of us will always be readers.
I am pleased to now be reading Mycroft Holmes by Kareem Abdul Jabbar and Anna Waterhouse. I feel that they have captured the essence of Sherlock Holmes mysteries and delivered an intriguing cozy which is liberally sprinkled with social justice messages. I doubt this book is popular in Repug circles.
I did finish Ready Player One and just loved the big "surprise" in it. Tried twice now to watch the movie but keep getting distracted and don't finish. I get the feeling Spielberg read the book once and thought it would make a fun film so he wrote a slightly different story about the same people. Just my initial take on it.
Next up on my audible list is Barracoon: the story of the last "blackcargo" by Zora Neale Hurston; sadly non-fiction.
What treats are in your book bag this week?
