What Fiction are you reading this week, Oct. 25, 2020? [View all]


Bon jour.

Bibliothèque nationale de France, Paris

Hell is empty. All the devils are here. Opening lines from Louise Penny's latest, All the Devils Are Here. That sounds like it could be about the U.S. right now, but no. Instead, Chief Inspector Gamache of the Sûreté du Quebec is back and investigating a sinister plot while visiting Paris. Coincidentally, I just finished reading The Bones of Paris. Seems I can't get away from the sinister side of the City of Light.

Listening to Gods of Guilt by Michael Connelly. Lawyers and drug cartels in L A.

Hope you can have a safe and fun Halloween.
