What Fiction are you reading this week, December 2, 2018? [View all]

Whatta week! I've been to parades and parties and all sorts of festivities.

Consequently, not much time for reading so I'm still enjoying The Beautiful Mystery by Louise Penny

I did finish listening to A Man Called Ove and must say that was one sweet, funny story. I'm always skeptical about books that become so popular so quickly but this one did not disappoint. Now I'm listening to I'll Be Gone In The Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer by Michelle McNamara, which is not fiction, unfortunately. This is one very chilling tale.

I need to get some cheerful holiday stories. I'm thinking Connie Willis.

What are you thinking about reading this week?
