Angel by LJ Ross — Latest Read
Just finished Angel by LJ Ross. This is Book 4 in Ross's DCI Ryan Series. Like the previous books in the series, murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humor set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape. Not for everyone, but an enjoyable read.
What We’re Watching — New Tricks
Just added another BritBox British crime drama called New Tricks to our watch list. We just finished the first episode. The dynamics between the characters is really enjoyable. So far, recommended...
Walking in Memphis — This Friday’s Song
This Friday's song is Walking in Memphis by Marc Cohen. This song was released in 1991. In 1991, I was traveling a lot in Asia and this song always brought me "home" for a few minutes.
Thanksgiving 2020 Perspective

The Silence — Latest Read
Just finished The Silence by Don DeLillo. I had read a number of articles that recommended DeLillo as a contemporary author worth reading. So when I saw this recently released novel by DeLillo, I added it to my "Want to Read" list.
What We Are Watching — Death in Paradise Season 9
Ok, so Britbox has been a little weird at how they are making episodes available under the subscription, but we just finished the first "part" of Death in Paradise Season 9.
Thunder Road — This Friday’s Song
This performance of Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band in Barcelona has always been a favorite.
The Diary of a Man of Fifty — Latest Read
Just hit my reading goal of 26 books for 2020 with The Diary of a Man of Fifty by Henry James. This was a bit of a cheat since it really is only a short story, so I will be doing at least a couple more "real" books before the end of the year.
