What Fiction are you reading this week, January 7, 2024? [View all]

Still reading With No One As Witness by Elizabeth George, as I suspected I would be. It's a BIG book. Great story.

Listening to Midnight at the Christmas Bookshop by Jenny Colgan. A bookstore in Edinburgh at Christmas, what could be more delightful.

Yesterday I got my order from B&N: The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride, The Once and Future Witches by Alix Harrow and In a House of Lies by Ian Rankin. These are for reading when it gets too snowy here to drive to the library, which looks like it will be happening soon.

How's your reading starting off this year?
