What are you reading the week of Sunday, February 8, 2015? [View all]

Good morning, all!

Well, Friday night I finished the third and final book of the Lewis Trilogy by Peter May, which happily turned up at my library on Wednesday - considerably earlier than I had expected it. So it turned out I was able to read #1, 2, and 3 pretty much one right after another. It was a fascinating experience, being wholly absorbed in the geography and culture - and weather - of the Outer Hebrides. I'm very glad I came across this trilogy.

I've moved onto the southwest corner of mainland Scotland with the book I'm currently reading, The Darkness and the Deep, by Aline Templeton. It's the second book of a series featuring Galloway DI Marjory Fleming. There are 8 books in the series, with a 9th coming out this April. Unfortunately, the first book of the series, which was published in 2005, was not available anywhere in the library system so I had to start with #2. It's been a cracking good read, so far! I have #s 3, 6, & 7 on hand, with the others winding their way through the interlibrary loan system.
