Cute cartoon, hermetic!

Lot's of "Best" picks. "An electrifying work of literary suspense.." Will have to check that one out, as well.

Pretty scary Bigfoot/monster story from the author of World War Z.

Also very popular. There sure a lot of books with that title.

Kind of hard to suspend disbelief for that one.

"In this beautiful and unforgettable novel, Steven Galloway has taken an extraordinary, imaginative leap to create a story that speaks powerfully to the dignity and generosity of the human spirit under extraordinary duress."

TY for the suggestion.

"Pride and Prejudice."

I read it when I was fourteen. It is quite a different read at seventy-one.

I am going to switch to non-fiction for awhile. See you when I switch back to fiction!

See ya.

Looking forward to selecting a new book.

Choose wisely. Heck, get 3. It'll probably have to close down again after a few weeks. How IS your state doing anyway? I should look it up. My state was into phase 4, where bars, libraries, etc. could open but the numbers started spiking so the governor had to backpedal and close all the bars again. Obviously nobody has a clue about how to deal with this mess.
Glad to see you are doing okay.

I read the first two Hamish MacBeth books and loved them. I was desperate and through my own stupidity had to cancel my one and only credit card, a new one will come this week. Anyway I went to Amazon Kindle because I knew there was free stuff. I downloaded a set of 6 books by Dianne Harman called the Cottonwood Cozy Mysteries. I started the 1st titled Murder in Cottonwood Springs. I admit they are not quite what I like, but I will read most anything. There are 3 novels that I gave up on after multiple attempts; Don Quixote, Moby Dick and Dune.

My son and his wife bought me a nice copy of it for Christmas a few years ago. I read Dune twice, and a couple of its sequels. I did not care for the sequels.

Everyone has different tastes.

I could not read Don Quixote. My youngest daughter read it in the original seventeenth century Spanish. I had to find a copy of THAT for her Christmas gift a few years ago. I have a smart kid. Of course, she grew up in the library where I worked.

I am grateful for this group. I learn a lot here, and I like seeing what other people are reading.

I attempted 3 times each and wouldn’t quit about 1/2 way.

A thriller set in Amsterdam, written by a German and a South Africa. Enjoying it.

I love Hamish Macbeth. I read about a dozen when I was in hospital last year. For some reason that I can't pin down, I don't much care for Agatha Raisin.

The virus hasn't quite gone away, although the number of new cases continues to dwindle. There have been no deaths at our local hospital for 3 weeks now. The biggest relaxation of lockdown rules happens in a weeks' time. I'm a bit apprehensive about that.
