What are you reading?
Midweek blahs. What are you reading? Anything good?
I just finished Sapiens and really enjoyed it...thinking about getting back to my Agatha Christie kick, since it's rainy and I have a lot of work and need some distraction :)

I'm currently reading Burntown by Jennifer McMahon. I loved The Winter People and The Night Sister by her.
Just started "The House of Spies" by Daniel Silva.
Just started Tana French's The Likeness. After that, not nessecariy in this order; Requiem in Vienna by J. Sydney Jones, A Dance to the Music of time by Anthony Powell and The Shadow of the Wind by C. R. Zafon. As you can probably tell, I just visited the library. With many 100 degree days in sight, I shall be happily curled up with the above.
Jane Austen At Home by Lucy Worsley. Just finished Margaret Powell's Below Stairs and will read her follow up soon. I have a few shelves of "service memoirs", endlessly interesting to me.
Charles Todd's series with Inspector Rutledge. Really enjoying it and love the WW I era.

Just finished Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan. Loved it. Interesting how the other 1% live. And I'll be reading Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows by Balli Kaur Jaswal next.
I'm in the middle of my first Graham Joyce novel - Some Kind of Fairy Tale - and am angry with myself for not reading Joyce sooner. He has been on my reading list for over a decade and to think I have been depriving myself of this amazing writer all this time. He unfortunately passed away a few years ago, but the good news (for me anyway) is that I have his entire catalog to go through yet.
The Heart's Invisible Furies by John Boyne which was fabulous. Also, Sour Heart by Jenny Zhang -- edgy, challenging short stories chosen by Lena Dunham for the inaugural of her imprint at Random House. If this is any indication of the quality of what she'll be publishing, it's going to attract a whole new world of readers.
I'm just finishing up The Inheritance. I love reading books from this period up to WWII UK.
Just finished Lady Audley's Secret by Mary Braddon. Loved it! I love Victorian novels.
