Finished Something in the Water, which was a surprise.

Now reading The CIA Book Club by Charlie English. Non-fiction about use, printing, smuggling of books during war and cold war. Here we go again, mirroring what's happening to us today. I'm soaking up tips just in case, and makes me want to rebuild my library (decimated by H.Katrina) of important works like: 1984, Animal Farm, etc. Speaking of Animal Farm, I've been enjoying Instagram posts by: cultivatinglegacy, reporting sheep farm shenanigans and political subterfuge by evil doers, funny and on point.
