What Fiction are you reading this week, May 17, 2026? [View all]

This discussion thread is pinned.

The State Library of So Australia was named the second most beautiful library in the world.


Reading Anarchy and Old Dogs by Colin Cotterill. A Dr. Siri Paiboun historical mystery. Dr. Siri solves a mystery and discovers a plot to overthrow the government of Laos. This one is really funny. Lots of LOLs.

Listening to Mrs. Plansky's Revenge by Spencer Quinn. A blend of Cozy Mystery and Adventure Fiction.
"A recent widow, in her seventies, is startled awake one night by a phone call from a voice claiming to be her grandson Will, who desperately needs ten thousand dollars to get out of a jam. Of course, she obliges -- after all, what are grandmothers for." I'm liking it.
