I purchased this book from audible this morning. (I am not sure if I will like it, but they have a return option, so if I don’t, then I will just return it. That option has allowed me to try different things.)

And yes, I have returned – Mrs. Sherlock Holmes: The True Story of New York City’s Greatest Female Detective and the 1917 Missing Girl Case That Captivated a Nation
Book by Brad Ricca. I tried three times and just could not get in to it. But every time I read a synopsis, I swear it is something I would/should love.

I realized almost everything I have listened to this year (books and podcasts) has been nonfiction.

I went thru all of Gretchen Rubin’s again. I did Marie C and also the Swedish Death cleaning one. Then I did Gretchen and Elizabeth’s book club selections (Inheritance and Small Fry) which were excellent. I love their take on book club – assign book, everybody reads, they interview the author.

I think I might like to find a podcast that does some type of similar book review thing. (I sort of outgrew the book group’s in town that I used to love.)

I normally a classics person, but I am sort of running out of classics.

My recent reads are Gretchen Rubin and Elizabeth (her sister) podcast book club selections Inheritance and Small Fry. Both great nonfiction books (and not normally something I would pick). I loved them.

So I got #1 and #6 from your list, from audible, to try (they have a return option, so if I don’t like, can exchange within a year). Maybe nonfiction appeals to me right now.

Thank you for mentioning them.
