On vacation this week, unfortunately couldn't go away but just enjoying some alone time. Trying to read books.

I read The People We Keep by Allison Larkin which is sure to be a classic it's so good, and I'm alternating between Wounding by Heidi James and some Japanese detective novel about a BDSM murderer called The Rope Artist. I'm not sure that one's any good but usually anything someone bothers to publish in a translated to English format is worth reading; something like less than 10% of books published in non-English languages are translated and we're apparently missing a great world of literature not reading them so I always try to. I found a great independent publishing house this week who only publish about a dozen books a year and they're all really good, so I have a stack of stuff to go through next.
