What Fiction are you reading this week, September 11, 2022? [View all]
Reading The Broken Spine by Dorothy St. James, a story about an assistant librarian in a small town who will stop at nothing to save her beloved books. This just came out last year and is pretty popular. One of my favorite things about it is the constant referrals to Nancy Drew. I collected all of the 25 earliest books and loved how, for a teen-aged girl back in the 50s-60s, she was confident, competent, and totally independent as well as outspoken and authoritative. Definitely influenced my literary choices to this day as well as my personality.
Listening to The Woman in the Library by Sulari Gentill, also quite new and popular. Just started it but can sure see a recurring theme in my reading choices this week. Thank you, librarians.
What are your reading choices this week?
