Another week where I didn't get to read anything.

I'm currently reading Portrait in Sepia by Isabel Allende. I read some books by her years ago, which I loved, so when I saw this one in a tiny library, I had to take it. I'm not far in yet, but it's a great read so far.

I finished both Murder on the Orient Express and Murder on the River Nile by Agatha Christie. They were both fun and well-written, but I don't think detectives are my cup of tea. I may read some more of her work if it's snowing and I'm in front of a fireplace or something. They're cozy to read, even with all the murders taking place.
