What are you reading?

I am reading my way through a library book: "The Winter's Child" by Cassandra Parkin.

I hope you find the book informative.

I am in the middle of the book I am reading on Parisian women around WWII. It seems really all over the place and seems somewhat surreal. Both really good things about some of the Germans and the French and also many of the really evil things about them both too. A real view of how people resort to the depths that they would never think or admit to, except for the very (very) few.

Obviously it never went that low but it really brings it home to me just how close we were getting to similar evils during the covid lockdown. You may not agree but the evidence was there to see. Both fear and propaganda pushing this way and that with ever increasing consequences, death or the law, dragging sanity toward the gutter.

This week, I read Sea Rose Lane by Irene Hannon, and requested the next in the series (Hope Harbor) from the library.

Awake by Natasha Preston

so far. not sure what it's about but it's good so far. i pick up free books off a shelf at work. sometimes i bring back the good ones cuz it's sposed to be take a book leave a book.

i think i still have like 4 or 5 boxes of books in the basement along with a couple piles upstairs somewhere.

I'm getting toward the end of my current 'Inspector Morse'. I get confused with the TV version so I am not sure who the main villain will be

Maybe "Awake" is a mixture of themes: vampires/humour AND a murder mystery. Different themes can fit in one book.

I grabbed another book tonight on the way out of work called The Hiding Place by Karen Harper.

I should finish the book I am reading on the parisian women around WWII sometime this week. I am still finding it an unusual book.

I finished reading this book yesterday evening.

It was a good book but the swearing in it: it was atrocious. It did take skill to write but I wouldn't read it again. The language was rude and coarse.

It goes to show: never judge a book by its cover.
