6. It's a Rebus week for me

I listened to Ian Rankin's Fleshmarket Alley on CD and that was great. Read by a gentleman with a rich, Scottish brogue.

Now I'm reading The Naming of the Dead. I love how it's about the G8 Summit back in 2005. I watched several YouTubes back then and Rankin's descriptions are spot on. I also love how there's so many musical references, stuff I'm so familiar with. I do hope my library can get more of this series from the big library not too far away. I keep forgetting to ask about that.

I had forgotten about Michael Chabon. I enjoyed his earlier work and now I see that there are 3 newer books to seek out.

I hadn't thought about this before but it seems a shame that these threads disappear after a week. I understand the necessity, otherwise this would become unwieldy. Just have to remember to take notes. I'm so glad TexasPro did a separate post for Sweet Tooth, otherwise I'd have missed it.
