"Bob, Honey Who Does Stuff" by Pappy Pariah *****

•  Audiobook
•  US author (Sean Penn or not?)
•  Debut
•  Originally published in 2016
•  Review:  A rollicking,  absurd, dark, disturbing, tale of a guy who does stuff.  That stuff ranges from espionage to annoying the neighbors.  Is Bob a regular genius?  Is he brilliant observer of American culture and politics?   is he nuts?  You be the judge.  This is the kind of novella that will likely be seen as weird or brilliant. I am leaning toward brilliant.

"The Redbreast" by Jo Nesbo. ***


  • Audiobook
  • # 3 in Harry Hole series
  • Norwegian author
  • Originally published in 2000
  • Mystery/Suspense
  • Review:  Definitely not my favorite in the series.  It seemed to drag for me

"The Forgotten Seamstress"by Liz Trenow ***

  •  Audiobook 
  •  English  author 
  •  Originally published in 2014
  • Review:  A nice story with some interesting themes, including women's institutions used to solve men's problems, love and friendship, healing, and the power of family. Frankly, the writing was adequate rather than enhancing to the story line.  Nice light read.
