October 2025 Reading

This month's reading mostly focused on books published 100 years ago for the 1925 Club.  However, it was fun to see Lisa Scottoline and Maureen Corrigan in conversation, sponsored by a local library, and caused me to check out her second book.  I also spent a weekend in Deep Valley, MN for the Betsy-Tacy Convention, always a good time.

Mystery and Suspense

Grime and Punishment by Jill Churchill (1989). Jane Jeffry, recently widowed and raising three children, is busy with car pools and community commitments (and gossip).

September 2025 Reading

September was a varied month beginning with a long but absorbing read of The Spring of the Ram, second in Dorothy Dunnett’s Niccolò series. I loved Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day and enjoyed the movie a few weeks later (not as good as the book – surprise!). I also really enjoyed Mrs. Endicott’s Splendid Adventure, which was full of great characters.

Six Degrees of Separation – from Born to Run to Many Years From Now

It’s time for #6degrees, inspired by Kate at Books Are My Favourite and Best. We all start at the same place, add six books, and see where we end up. This month’s starting point is Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen (2016).
