Second reading of this Discworld novel. Fun read but as with most Rincewind titles feels more skimming wavetops than enjoying the details of the journey.
Mark started reading New Orleans, mon amour by Andrei Codrescu
Short essays on New Orleans. Remember hearing the author on NPR as a contributor to All Things Considered.
Mark finished reading Bridge of Souls (City of Ghosts #3) by V. E. Schwab
Searched the library for books related to New Orleans. This was the first I’ve finished reading. Charming novel in a series. Good for YA through AA. Learned about some of the key haunted sites of NOLA as well as the importance of not wearing black to Cafe du Monde.
