What Fiction are you reading this week, Oct. 4, 2020? [View all]


So much good news these days!!
After a long wait I finally got Westwind by Ian Rankin. This was originally published in 1990 and was mostly overlooked. His fans convinced him to give it a slight rewrite and put it out again. I'm so glad because it's an exciting space and spy thriller. Not a Rebus story but a standalone. I'm loving it. As Lee Child says on the cover, "Ian Rankin is a genius."
And look at this! I just found it. https://goldenaudiobooks.com/ FREE online audiobooks. Best sellers. You don't even have to sign up. Just pick a book, hit play, and away you go. What a concept! Right now I'm listening to The Innocent by David Baldacci, another fast-paced thriller. I'm really enjoying that there are a male and female narrator, and there are sound effects. I find this makes listening to books more interesting.
What good things are you reading this week? You know, besides doctor reports...
