What Fiction are you reading this week, January 19, 2025? [View all]

The Library Tram in Brno, Czech Republic.

The "Library in the Tram" travels every day on a 70 km route, teaching about library services, and about benefits of digital reading. Visitors can scan QR codes with their mobile phones to access library’s website, search the catalog, and download free samples of selected ebooks.

I'm Reading A Darkness More Than Night by Michael Connelly. This is an older Bosch novel, 2001, and he's joined by FBI profiler Terry McCaleb to help solve a dark murder. Award winner.

Listening to The Old Man by Thomas Perry, a contemporary thriller. I'm looking forward to armed mercenaries, spectacularly crashed cars, a precarious love interest, and an unforgettable chase scene through the snow (from the description).

Hope you all have something pleasant to do tomorrow. Goodness knows, I'm going to be REALLY busy.
