Right now I am reading two things. First off, Peregrine which I don't think is published (yet) and might not be available to anyone who hasn't friended Troyswann, but I have no doubt it will find a wider audience. I never got to be a fan of Inspector Lewis, the BBC produced show, but I did catch a few episodes and liked it, but now the detective is solving another sort of crime in another sort of universe with a very similar side kick, if you add the fact that he sings and amazing things happen to visual scanners and Zeppelins. They do drink beer in this place, have assignations, and histories that follow them like mysterious Jinn... Her writing is so beautiful and her affection for her two protagonists make reading this mini novel my favourite warm bath to slip into before I go to sleep... I had a go at illustrating some of it. or you can just hit the tag peregrine. The story is here.

Damn I just erased the last thing I wrote, I have a raised keyboard for my arthritis and sometimes I accidentally lean on it and get weirdness............ I went on about my attempts to get into a book, any book and how I brought a bunch home from the library. (there should be a "Bla Bla Bla" key on this keyboard) anyway, I am reading "The best American Mystery Stories" which bugs me because, as you know, I get bugged by the abuse of the name "American" by people of the United States....................bla bla bla. I think it is on par with the incorrect use of "English" when we mean "British" which bugs my English friend to no end. ) The only story so far that got me was Until Gwen, by DEnnis Lehane. So I will google his name and see what else he has written. I got into an anthology once. :P

So what are you reading?
