Greetings from the Geriatric Ward in eastern Arkansas! I am so thrilled to finally be at home with my parents to enjoy a little down time after an incredibly exhausting fall semester. Somehow, I managed to get all of my finals given before leaving for the holiday and recorded multiple voice juries. To say it was a busy week would be a bit of an understatement. I’m finding myself quite tired.
This hectic schedule did impact my reading more than I had hoped. However, I have managed to make my way through about two-thirds of my current read: Michael Connelly’s The Black Ice. I decided to return to another mystery featuring Detective Harry Bosch. This novel centers around a police officer’s supposed suicide and a drug scheme involving criminals in Mexicali and sterile fruit flies. (I’m not kidding….sterile fruit flies!)
If all goes well, I should finish reading this novel early in the week and have time to finish another before planning for my return to Texas. Here’s hoping that you see a couple of book reviews in the coming days.
From our house to yours, despite the differences this year will bring, I hope that you have a very Happy Thanksgiving as you reflect on the blessings the last year has brought.
