[hermetic]

Been kind of a sleepy cat myself lately so still reading The Sentence, which is still excellent. I keep a pen and pad nearby to jot down the titles of books that get mentioned in this tale of bookstore employees. And recipes that sounds great.

Just started listening to A Slow Fire Burning by Paula Hawkins, pub. 2021. When a young man is found gruesomely murdered in a London houseboat, it triggers questions about three women who knew him, who are – for different reasons – simmering with resentment. When it comes to revenge, even good people might be capable of terrible deeds. How far might any one of them go to find peace? How long can secrets smolder before they explode into flame? "Look what you started."
