I finished Avenue of Mysteries by John Irving. There are many things to appreciate in Avenue of Mysteries if you are a John Irving fan. I understand Irving's books are not for everyone and Avenue of Mysteries is way out there.

I have started In Bitter Chill by Sarah Ward.

Mrs. Enthusiast finished The Ritual Bath by Faye Kellerman. She really liked this one so we ordered the next two in the series. Now she is reading The Tin Roof Blowdown by James Lee Burke. She is enjoying this one very much. The Tin Roof Blowdown takes place in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. It is a rather more ambitious undertaking by James Lee Burke than usual.
