Wonderful Wordy Wednesday

Nearly mid-November and we are still having nice weather. I almost have the fall yard work done. Still have leaves to do, but those don't take me long to do. Plus I don't have to haul them off, just push them out into the street. 

Hard at work on the blanket for my friend. Making excellent progress which means I am not reading as much for this week. I did get one book done but it was a book that has other holds on it. Those I read and return as soon as I can.  

Stocked up on sunflower seed so I have lots for the winter to feed the birds. They were mentioning on TV here that some of the birds that normally would have migrated by now are sticking around since it is so nice. I got a picture of sandhill cranes in a field last week, they usually are gone by now. A few days later I drove by a house and they had three cranes in their front yard!

On to this week's book stack!

The first two books here are new to me authors. Neither one caught my interest enough to want to read more of the author's books. 

Trust Me When I Lie, based in Australia Jack Quick is a producer of true crime stories. He gets a conviction reversed based on minimal evidence, but then another victim is found. Did he help release the actual perpetrator?

Death Overdue Carrie starts a new job in a library as the events planner. The library comes complete with its own ghost. Carrie's first program involves the retired detective who investigated the murder of a former library staff member. Can Carrie, the ghost and her other friends figure out who done it?

Surely You Can't Be Serious is a funny recounting by the three guys who brought you the film Airplane! Done in interview style the book relates the story of the team from their early years in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to LA. ZAZ, David Zucker, Jim Abrahams and Jerry Zucker are funny in print too.
