Because of this book, I am also simultaneously reading Spoon River Anthology, which I apparently never read in school. I‘m enjoying it too and am reminded of Lincoln in the Bardo. #audiowalk

It was 43° when I left the house this morning; it eventually got up to 74°. Still liking this book. #audiowalk
I think I‘m going to like this book; I feel invested in the characters. I picked up my granddaughter from school, and we went for a walk by the bay and out to dinner for sushi (her) and ramen (me). What a lovely day! #audiowalk
so-soThis collection of short stories from Fannie Flagg is a mixed bag — some are touching, some are surprising, some are just pedantic, and others are pointless. The ones featuring Cathy and Velma contrast life in the city to life in the country. How to Read a Book is my new #audiowalk listen.
pickI really enjoyed being back with Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim again. The story was interesting, although the murderer seemed kind of lame. The side plot with Ron‘s family was resolved in a satisfactory way. #audiowalk
I am clearly going to have to find a jacket — my walk was a bit chilly this evening. To my mind, Stephen was the person who kept Elizabeth connected to humanity; it looks like Joyce is now doing double duty in that regard. #audiowalk
The latest Thursday Murder Club book is my new #audiowalk book. As it opens, Joyce is planning a wedding. Elizabeth, still grieving, decides to go and gets a new case. So far I like it, but I‘m only a few chapters in.
pickTwo of my favorite characters in this book are the children, Vinny and Alf. They are some troublesome kids, but likeable. The story, near the end, took an interesting and unexpected turn involving them. I liked both Blackout and this book, but I still think they are both too long. #audiowalk
The track in the rec center is above the basketball and volleyball courts, so I can‘t hear much when games are going on. I had to walk there because of rain and got little listening done. I did, however, do some other reading because it rained all day. Ebook: When We Flew Away. Print book: One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This. #audiowalk
