Honestly, I often think i should do LESS blogging and then I;d have more time for paid writing...but I so enjoy my book blog and interacting with other bloggers! It's a balancing act, for sure.<br /><br />Your raves about Louise Penny on the podcast made me want to read her!

I adore her but it did take a few tries for me to get into Still Life.<br /><br />I'm reading Solemn Graves by James R. Benn. It's his latest Billy Boyle mystery (#13 I think). This is a series I've been meaning to read for years so I'm happy to finally get to it. WWII buffs would love it.<br /><br />I admire how consistent you are with your posts. Hoping you'll rub off on me...

It is the BEST SciFi in 2018 IMHO but is only available at present on Amazon. The cover art alone is to die for. It’s a bit “Handmaiden’s Tale;a bit Han Solo; and a bit Data from ST: Next Generation; all with ethics and identity formation.I THINK the classification is YA. I read almost all of it in one day! <br /><br />Working on Spinning Silver tooAndrea Stoeckelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05168013270163398015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-76676278399468627012018-09-17T23:39:27.402-04:002018-09-17T23:39:27.402-04:00Ahh!

I save them up and when I need to read something delightfully engaging but not overly brain taxing, I go to that.
