What Fiction are you reading this week, June 30, 2019? [View all]


Small Frank?

Today I plan to start reading A Question of Blood, an Ian Rankin Inspector Rebus mystery. I discovered there is/was a Rebus TV series and my “new” library has the first season. oboyohboyohboy

I just listened to French Exit by Patrick deWitt who also wrote The Sisters Brothers. I really enjoy deWitt’s stories so I got a copy of The Sisters Brothers movie which sounds like it will be quite good. Today I read that French Exit is being made into a movie as well. I will definitely want to see that. =^. , .^=

Now I am listening to Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris and literally howling with laughter. It’s even funnier as he is the one reading it. Made me cry a little bit, too. He is such a fantastic writer.

What is your planned reading for the week?
