What are you reading this week of December 11, 2016? [View all]
Finished The Ploughmen and at the end my jaw literally dropped. Then I thought, "WTF happened? Did I nod off and miss a page?" Guess I'll just have to read it again some day.
I was wanting some lighter fare then so I read the first story in Kelly Link's Get in Trouble. What a delight! The Summer People is one very strange tale. I've decided to read one of the short stories in between each novel I peruse. Which is now The Skull Mantra by Eliot Pattison.
At last, the tales from Tibet that our Scarletwoman was so enamored of. This first one is a doozy. Scary, horrible acts offset by the calming practices of Buddhism and the vast wilderness of Tibet. I'm liking it and plan to be reading more if not all of them.
Still listening to The Trespasser by Tana French. It's a long one. Lots of twists and turns and dark secrets from the past revealed.
Hoping this hectic time of year isn't interfering with your opportunity to get in a little calming reading.
