What Fiction are you reading this week, October 20, 2024? [View all]

I'm reading The Cabinet of Dr. Leng by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child. There's a whole lot going on in this 21st Pendergast novel. I'm finding it hard to put down.

Listening to The Dark Wind by Tony Hillerman. Great story from 1982 and I hear it's become a quite popular TV show.

These great books are helping me cope with this very messed up world right now.

What books are helping make the world right for you?
