What Fiction are you reading this week, August 12, 2018? [View all]

Let books take you away to different worlds

Goodness knows many of us are longing to get away from this one.

I'm still visiting Scotland in When the Music's Over by Peter Robinson. A real police procedural wherein the police are good people who enjoy good music and food and the occasional bit of humour. All while dealing with horrendous crimes.

Still listening to Dan Brown's Origin. I can see that reading this one could be tedious but having it read to you is enjoyable enough.

What's your book world this week?
