I made it through the spring election in Wisconsin yesterday. Results are looking promising in that Elon wasn't able to buy an seat on the state Supreme Court. Very thankful all of the ads are no longer on the TV, they were getting very irritating.
Local school board is looking good too. At least two of the people I wanted to get elected look like they will win.
Weather is all over the place, had a really nice day last week in the 70s, been icky since. I keep wanting to grill out but don't want to freeze my buns off while grilling.
Homicide in Hardcover a new author and series to me and I like it, will read more. Brooklyn restores rare books and when her mentor is murdered she is determined to find out who did it.
Remarkably Bright Creatures a touching story of a Giant Pacific Octopus, Tova a cleaner at the aquarium, family and friends. Love, loss, family, friendship and the interconnections of life.
One Wrong Word a twisty tale! Arden is being let go from her PR firm but the boss is giving her one last job, and her severance and reference letter depend on it. The job, help Ned rehabilitate his reputation after being found not guilty of vehicular homicide. The more Arden digs, the more she thinks Ned was framed. But by who?
Original Sins Riley Fisher is a new FBI agent assigned to the Des Moines, Iowa office. As she arrives there are attacks on women, likely to be done by a serial attacker who has attacked before. Threats, including to the newly elected female governor, are making things tense. Page turner thriller.
Happy Reading.
Weather's up and down here, too. 75 one day, 56 the next, winds pushing the trees sideways, crazy. Dad says he swears he's seen that "Read books, be kind, stay weird" one in Asheville when we lived down there.
ReplyDeleteActually finished 2 books yesterday; one audiobook, one book. Well, guess it was today, 'cause I was up past midnight, but the story was so good.

ReplyDeleteThe Wisconsin Supreme Court elections made our news over here! It always seems odd to us that so many judicial/official roles are elected rather than appointed, which is what we're used to. Terrific that Elon couldn't buy what he wanted but my understanding is that the other candidate had a very large amount of money thrown at the election also - which is concerning.
