World Without End by Ken Follett

I just read the case of the beautiful beggar.

The last book I read was Wayward Son. I was expecting a lot but it just screamed second-book syndrome.

I just finished The War of the Worlds and The War in the Air. It was slow at times but I really liked it, and I did prefer Air over Worlds. But I'm very curious to read more from H.G. Wells in the future.

I finished reading the wartime memoir -
When Broken Glass Floats: Growing Up Under the Khmer Rouge. It was a difficult read but probably one of the less harsh introductions to the Khmer Rouge's crimes against humanity. Here's my review:

Life Undercover: Coming of Age in the CIA by Amaryllis Fox. An October NPR article mentioned 3 titles recently written by women in the CIA. I have another title lined up to be read soon.

Also just finished - Tracking Game by Margaret Mizushima. This is a mystery with a K-9 investigative unit set in rural Colorado. Fans of police procedurals would appreciate it. Here's my review - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Finished Christina Lauren's newest book - Twice in a Blue Moon.

They had also published The Unhoneymooners earlier this year.

I'm re-thinking my habit of adding my name to my library's waitlist for their new titles.

Finished S.A. Lelchuk's debut mystery Save Me from Dangerous Men. The main character Nikki is a bookseller / private investigator - this is not a "cozy" mystery.

I finally got around to Le Fanu's Carmilla - the original vampire story and antidote to Bram Stoker. Victorian gothic horror is not my genre, but it was good.

That's one of my favorite books and I also read it this year. As much as I love you really have to stick with, but it's worth it. (Yes, it took me months too).

I finished my last book for 2019 which was The Song of the Jade Lily by Kirsty Manning. I was interested in this book since it took place in Shanghai and Australia which we were lucky enough to visit. Unfortunately there was too much romance for me and I rated this book with 3 stars.

I just finished which is a wonderful hard sci-fi novel about first contact with the Rukh (pronounced Rook) that live on Saturn. The mission goes horribly wrong and the humans must rely on the intelligent Rukh for survival.
