What Fiction are you reading this week, August 8, 2021? [View all]
I am halfway through The Winter King. This book has A LOT of words and you don't want to miss a single one. The pages are so very dense with text; a paragraph can last for an entire page, thick with details and descriptions. Cornwell does a very well- researched job in telling a story which just might have happened. I doubt we'll ever really know. He sure makes it feel real, though.
Listening to First Among Sequels, Book 5 of the Thursday Next Series by Jasper Fforde. The title is a parody of First Among Equals, which is the title of a Jeffrey Archer novel. The story is a parody of pretty much everything else in the modern world, and England in particular. So funny.
What fiction/alternative facts will you be enjoying this week?
