The Man Made of Smoke … Scary! Serial killer

I’m reading The Missing Half by Ashley Flowers and am finding it slow going. Part of my problem is I don’t really like the main character.

I just finished The Queen’s Musician by Martha Jean Johnson. It’s. a Tudor-era historical novel about Mark Smeaton, who was the lutenist executed as part of Anne Boleyn’s circle. Loved it.

Started a book I received to review, Darker Than the Sky by Matt Tracy, a couple of days ago and having real difficulty with it. I’ll force myself to finish it though.

A little over halfway through listening to The 1619 Project. It’s 19+ hours, but I am learning something from each essay and hopefully, am gaining greater insight into what it is to be Black in America.

I am reading Fagin the Thief

I am just starting Aftertaste by Daria Lavelle. Also I have heard great things about Project Hail Mary and in particular the audiobook. So I am listening to it and the first 4 hours have been great!

I’m reading ‘The Women’ by Kristin Hannah, about the nurses in Vietnam. Harrowing and hoping there’s some positive outcomes for the main character soon!

Loved that one!! Was so excited to see it win..
