What Fiction are you reading this week, April 7, 2024? [View all]
Biltmore Estate library
I'm enjoying two of my most favorite authors this week.
I am reading In A House of Lies by Ian Rankin, a gripping story of corruption and consequences. In this 25th Rebus mystery, a new investigation threatens to unearth skeletons from Rebus' past and one from a car boot.
Listening to Kingdom of the Blind by Louise Penny. I probably already read this but not much else was available in audio right now so here I am. When a peculiar letter arrives inviting Armand Gamache to an abandoned farmhouse, he discovers that a complete stranger has named him one of the executors of her will. The will is so odd and includes bequests that are so wildly unlikely that Gamache suspects the woman must have been delusional. But what if, he begins to ask himself, she was perfectly sane?

I just reread it. Most memorable character was the snow. Deep freezing blizzard cold. And the hat.

Trump rally speeches are poor in grammar and sentence structure, but the fictional lies just keep on coming.
