I think books are getting longer. Or, I haven’t had a lot of time in the last week. Last night, I spent time on the phone with Southwest Airlines (all good), so that took a little reading time, but I still don’t think I would have finished my book.

I’m reading a charming debut mystery, Plantation Shudders by Ellen Byron. It’s set in Louisiana, and deals with the surprising death of two guests on a plantation turned bed-and-breakfast. Surprising, because a couple died with minutes of each other. It’s “A Cajun Country Mystery”, and the characters are wonderful. Love the amateur sleuth’s Gran’, “Someone who was comfortable occasionally making a dodgy moral choice.” We all know I read for character.

So, I’m in Cajun Country with new acquaintances. What are you reading today? Where did your book take you today?
