What Fiction are you reading this week, August 4, 2019? [View all]



(That sort of looks like a metaphor for our country right now.)

I’ve just started Carter and Lovecraft by Jonathan Howard and I really like it so far. Very intriguing beginning: a rather curious case of suicide. Or was it?

Listening to The Cat Who Sang for the Birds by Lillian Jackson Braun. Meet prizewinning reporter, Jim Qwilleran, and his extraordinary Siamese cats, Koko and Yum Yum--the most unlikely, most unusual, most delightful team in detective fiction!

I also just listened to The Private Life of the Cat Who-- tales of Koko and Yum Yum, a short recording lending a glimpse into the personal lives of the two Siamese. They are so funny. My thanks, again, to Number9Dream for recommending this series.

Any fiction you’d like to recommend this week? Or not?
