Books

I am enjoying Finding Nouf by Zoe Ferraris, a literary mystery set in Saudi Arabia. Palestinian Nayir al-Sharqi investigates the death of Nouf with the help of Katya who works in the women's section of the state medical examiner's office. Interesting to read about women who are so restricted and controlled by a male religious state.

Also really like Through Black Spruce by Joseph Boyden. I have put off reading this because I liked Three Day Road so much, but this book is also very good.

Gave up on a couple of audio books. One was boring - a mystery - and the other (Kyra) I could not stand the reader.
