What Fiction are you reading this week, October 2, 2022? [View all]



Reading Rebus: Long Shadows: The New Play, the stage debut for legendary detective John Rebus in a brand new, original story by Ian Rankin. "This haunting story takes Rebus to places he has never been before, sets him and his long-time foe on a collision course and takes us deeper into one of the most satisfying conflicts in modern fiction...this book is one Rebus fans will not want to miss out on." This is the actual rehearsal script for the stage play Rankin wrote a few years ago. Having worked in theatre for many years, I really enjoy reading plays. I would love to see it.

Listening to The Witches' Tree by M.C. Beaton. So far it is quite amusing. Except for the dead body, of course.
With Halloween coming up, this seemed like a good choice.

What are your book choices this week?
