What Fiction are you reading this week, November 18, 2018? [View all]

I am always thankful that I can read books.
Right now it's The Beautiful Mystery by Louise Penny. Not sure how I overlooked this one while I was reading all the Inspector Gamache books but evidently I did. Now I am delighted to be reading another one although it does not take place in Three Pines. Instead. there is a murder in a monastery in a remote area of Quebec.
Still listening to The Book of the Dead. That's a long one and is my favorite Preston/Child story so far. I love the part about the 'truck driver.' I'm almost done so next up is A Man Called Ove.
Hoping you all have wonderful feasting and leftovers, much to be thankful for, and great books to read. Tell us about them.

What a nice idea! I read a lot of "chapter" books aloud to my kids as they were growing.

No fiction this week. On Thanksgiving week I always revisit Nathaniel Philbrick's "Mayflower."
