What Fiction are you reading this week, May 20, 2018? [View all]

So many books.....

I am reading House of Blues by Julie Smith. It's fun, in a gruesome murdery sort of way. After a prominent New Orleans restaurateur is murdered in his beautiful Garden District home, three family members suspiciously vanish. Homicide Detective Skip Langdon finds herself in places where the city's dirty business is transacted, and where life is mostly madness, sadness, and badness.

Today I will start listening to Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders. Wish me luck.

What do you plan to be reading this week?
