Raise your hand if you thought you’d get blown away Tuesday night, Wednesday moring.

It was a rough night out there. There’s a great deal of empty land between my place and the next apartment, and the wind just howled through there. I finally got up and slept on the couch. It wasn’t as noisy in the living room as in my bedroom. Lots of thumps as garbage cans were blown around, but I slept most of the night. Then, Wednesday I ran some errands, with a couple more today before the temperatures drop into single digits next week. Brrrr. You do know I hate winter, don’t you?

So, tell me what you’re surviving weather-wise this week. Then, tell us what you’re reading.

I’m reading Clea Simon’s To Conjure a Killer. It’s her fourth Witch Cats of Cambridge Mystery. It reminds me of Sofie Kelly’s Magical Cats mysteries. However, in Simon’s books, Becca Colwin believes she’s a witch who is developing her magical powers. It’s really her three cats who have magical powers, not Becca. Becca is always ending up in trouble, and her cats have to join forces to get her out of it. In To Conjure a Killer, Becca ran after a stray kitten, chasing it down an alley. Although she found a body, she didn’t realize until she was told that the body was that of her ex-boyfriend. Because of her connection, she’s dragged into a cyberware scandal. Now, all kinds of people are watching her, including the cats.

What about you? What are you reading this week?
