What Fiction are you reading this week, March 16, 2025? [View all]

Top o' the morning to you!


I'm reading Creation Lake by Rachel Kushner, a novel about a secret agent who is sent to infiltrate a radical commune in France. "Taut and dazzling. Creation Lake is a work of high art, high comedy, and unforgettable pleasure."

I listened to The Faculty Lounge by Jennifer Mathieu, a "funny, bighearted novel that is at once an ode to educators, a timely glimpse at today's pressing school issues, and a tender character study, following a sprawling cast of teachers, administrators, and staff at a Texas high school." Very enjoyable.

Now I'm listening to The Change by Kirsten Miller, a story of modern day witches and VERY evil men. "Gloriously entertaining and knife-sharp feminist revenge fantasy about three women whose midlife crises brings unexpected new powers -- putting them on a collision course with the evil that lurks in their wealthy beach town." This is a long one and takes readers on all sorts of wild rides.

Hope you and yours made it through that horrible storm unscathed.
