Reading Wednesday 12/1
What I've just finished
The Lindbergh Case by Jim Fisher, a long and detailed account of the kidnapping that I read because I was writing something where it made sense for the characters to reference it.
Holes by Louis Sachar, which I think holds up very well.
What I'm reading now
After being aware of its existence since 2005, possibly 2004, what gets me to read Horatio Hornblower? A brief reference on M*A*S*H. Yeah, funny how things work out. I started with Beat to Quarters and I am enjoying it.
(And reading it confirms that the show was referencing Forester, not the real Hornblower family of Massachusetts or the phrase blowing one's horn, because Charles calls BJ Captain Hornblower during a bridge game and Horatio plays whist.)
