Way to go, Amber. What kind of book is Mermaid Chair? And where does Sex Lives take you, i.e. o what countries or places? I'm now reading Faceless Killers, the first of the Kurt Wallender detective stories by Henning Mankell. The book is set in Sweded -- in fact, this is an English translation. Kurt is a homicide detective who's recently divorced from his wife; whose daughter, probably in late teens or early 20's, is somewhat estranged from him; and who listens to opera and drinks alone at night to assuage his pain at the divorce. In this book he and his team have to find the killer or killers or an elderly farm couple, the male of whom has a secret past. It's easy reading -- not tense or scary, which I like, i.e., I don't like mysteries that are tense or scary. Cindy -- Amber Wallenstein <amber.wallens@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > What is everyone reading?
