What Fiction are you reading this week, September 29, 2019? [View all]


A view of the Salt Lake City Public Library immediately after walking in the front door.


I finally finished Atwood’s The Heart Goes Last. I tell ya, all the while I was reading I kept thinking, “This really isn’t my favorite of hers.” Then there was the ending. O. M. G. Yep, totally made that whole ordeal worthwhile.

Now I am reading Ian Rankin’s Resurrection Men. Excellent, as expected.

Listening to She Walks These Hills by Sharyn McCrumb. Really enjoying it and plan to get more of her books. In this one, some are concerned that the ghost of a young lady from long ago is roaming the hills. Even more frightening, a convicted murderer has escaped prison and is heading their way, seeking revenge. Two local women find themselves tasked with resolving these issues.

What’s excellent in your reading this week? (You know, besides the fact MF45 is going down! )
