I have mixed feelings about this book. It was good to a point but felt like something was missing, although I can't quite say what. A little disappointed in the ending.

Now reading Youthjuice by EK Sathue.

I just finished this audiobook. Harvey Fierstein's autobiography is a ride through his life, primarily his life as a playwright and stage actor. It's a good listen. He's very committed to his beliefs and I have to admire that.

5 young friends go camping, find a staircase. One of them climbs it and vanishes. Years later the 4 get together, climb a staircase in the woods and end up in the house from hell.

The least likeable characters but a tightly written story about friendship and facing yourself and how trauma lingers

Kinsey is leader of a desert research team that discovers a strange specimen. The team brings it back to base only to discover something in search of a new host.

Only reason I read it in 2 sittings is I had stuff to do. A little bit The Thing, which I enjoyed.

One British man's contemporaneous account of being a rum runner during Prohibition in America. Reads almost like a novel at times.

Knitting a sleeve. I've gotten determined to finish this sweater sooner than later and have even given up reading to work on it.
