I think I read all but the last two, although I may have read Whirlwind... Maybe I will try the last two....
5. A book you bought because of the author. Alabaster: The Good, the Bad, and the Bird by Caitlín R. Kiernan 3.5 stars (I bought because I wanted to explore Caitlin Kiernan's work more)
My review of Alabaster: The Good, the Bad, and the Bird
by Caitlín R. Kiernan, a horror / fantasy graphic. I have to find more of this series. Not sure how big it is. 3.5 starshttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

No, David! ..."I enjoyed Beagle's The Last Unicorn and I have A Fine and Private Place on my bookshelf. I should explore his work more.
It's a very rich story. So far the mystery is a minor part of it. I am enjoying the writing and the story.
