We’ve had gorgeous weather here this week, low 60s to low 80s. I wish it would continue, but it is August. And, I’m having a great week at work. For three days, I’ve been spending my afternoons at a virtual conference. It’s a good one, one that I really enjoyed in person. For those of you who use OverDrive or Libby to read or listen to books or magazines, this conference is put on by OverDrive. So, that’s what I’ve been doing. What about reading?

I’m actually reading a crime novel for a journal and a novel in NetGalley. But, I have this book checked out from the library, and I’m slowly reading the stories. It’s Golden Age Detective Stories edited by Otto Penzler. There are fourteen stories by authors such as Ellery Queen, Mignon G. Eberhart, and Mary Roberts Rinehart. There is a very short introduction to each author before meeting their detective in the story. I’ve read two, one by Anthony Boucher, and Charlotte Armstrong’s fascinating story, “The Enemy”. If you’re a fan of Golden Age detective stories, you’ll want to pick it up. If you want to discover authors of that period, along with their detectives, this book is an excellent place to start.

What about you? How is your week going? And, for all of us, what are you reading?
