What Fiction are you reading this week, March 30, 2025? [View all]



Reading The Lost Coast by the father and son team, Jonathan and Jesse Kellerman. A most intriguing tale involving land fraud in northern California. An actual place, I don't recall ever hearing about the Lost Coast in all my years of living in and visiting California. Here's a Wiki article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_Coast" The book is "a heart-stopping tale of deception and redemption -- bursting with action, suspense, and unforgettable characters." A real page-turner.

Last week a few of us here were chatting about Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series. On Monday I finished my audio book and, looking for something new, I discovered my library had several Wheel of Time audio books. I checked out the first two, for 3 weeks. Then I loaded up The Eye of the World and looked at the little notation in the corner that tells how long it is...29+ hours!!! Just for the first book! I'm not sure I have the patience for this.
