What Fiction are you reading this week, February 13, 2022? [View all]

Just finishing up the enjoyable Silent Voices by Ann Cleeves. It's fun to see Vera develop. Next up will be The Third Policeman, Flann O'Brien's brilliantly dark comic novel about the nature of time, death, and existence. Looking forward to this one.
I'm listening to The Paris Library by Janet Skeslien Charles. Based on the true World War II actions of the heroic librarians at the American Library in Paris, this is an unforgettable story. It has so many things that I love: libraries, Paris, the French language, standing up against nazis. This is one of those books that jumps back and forth between 3 different periods of time but it is very well done and I don't find it at all annoying as I have some other books that do that.
Have a happy Valentine's Day; share your love of books.
