As the days get longer, the stacks seem to get shorter. I wonder why?
Even though I don’t have a lot this week, I do have one book that I’ve been looking forward to since last year: The Nature of the Beast by Louise Penny. Her Inspector Gamache series is one of my all-time favorites. When I read last year’s book, The Long Way Home, I could see where she might be ending the series at that point. Gamache was retired, he wouldn’t necessarily have more cases to solve. But I am so, so grateful that he does.
If you love a good, deep, character driven mystery, this series is a treat from beginning to end, starting with Still Life and hopefully not ending for a long time to come.

Solar Express? A new L.E. Modesitt Jr. title? I need to check that out.
Yes. And its Hard SF too. Whether that means you’re more interested or less? I love his Imager Portfolio but have yet to get into anything else of his. Maybe this time…
