What Fiction are you reading this week, January 5, 2025? [View all]
Howdy, new year.
Reading We Solve Murders by Richard Osman. A new detective duo, father and daughter-in-law, race around the world to outsmart a killer. Solving murders, it's a family business. Modern villains: influencers and ChatGPT. I'm quite enjoying it.
I'm listening to Take Your Breath Away by Linwood Barclay. Great mystery, thriller. A woman disappears and then shows up six years later, but is it really her? Then she's gone again. "Mega entertaining and clever, with a smart sense of humor."
What are you starting your year off with?
