I'm reading The Raven, which I'm not really wild about.  Kind of slogging my way through it because I want to see how it turns out, however, I'm finding it kind of difficult to read. It jumps around a lot and I just feel like in a lot of places, I'm going, 'Huh?"  Nearing the end fortunately.

I haven't started a new audio book lately.  Thinking I'll do a classic.  Either Anna Karenina or Wuthering Heights.

I've begun a good old warhorse of a book set in Edwardian England, Theirs was the Kingdom by R. F. Delderfield.  It follows his first book about the Swann family, God is an Englishman.  I'll be at this one a while lol!

I am reading The Spies of Shilling Lane by Jennifer Ryan. Set in 1941 London. Very good deals with searching and spying in London at that time. I am enjoying it.
