Wordy Wednesday
Finished:
After the Funeral by Agatha Christie. Okay. Not her best but not bad.
The Wager by David Grann. [audiobook] Narrated by Dion Graham. Excellent narrator. Non-fiction account of a sea voyage, storms, mutinity, shipwreck, cannibalism, and Byron's grandfather as a very young man.
Still Reading:
Bullet Train by Kotaro Isaka. Japanese assassins on a train. Violent and with dark humor. It has some things in common with a locked room mystery in that it's a closed setting.
The Mill House Murders by Yukito Ayatsuji. 'The Classic Japanese Locked Room Mystery' I only read this to and from soccer games, so I haven't made much progress.
Started: A World of Curiosities by Louise Penny. [audiobook] narrated by Robert Bathurst. Excellent narrator. This is #18 in the Inspector Gamache - Three Pines series in Canada. I can't say I love it, but I'm very familiar with the series and I like having an audiobook when I'm doing a jigsaw puzzle and this one was instantly available. It's sort of Very Earnest and gruesome in the way Law & Order SVU is gruesome.
Still on the TBR:
Coq du Vin by Charlotte Carter, book #2 of the Nanette Haynes mysteries. Protagonist is a black female street musician in New York City.
