What Fiction are you reading this week, January 5, 2020? [View all]


Words to the wise.

I’m reading Kingdom of the Blind by Louise Penny. Lots of suspense. Parts of this story involve characters not understanding other people’s manner of speech/accents. It's good but somewhat diminished by my having already read the next book, A Better Man.

Listening to Tooth and Nail, the 3rd Inspector Rebus novel from ’92. Rebus goes to London and doesn’t care much for it. His comments are quite amusing and often involve, coincidentally, misunderstood patois. Also, a mysterious serial killer.

What good things are you reading this week?

A sad
