Reader Round Up: November


Ennui infiltrated my November solace. Usually I decompress after work by grabbing a book and sitting and reading in my comfy chair. This year, though, that plan has been scuttled due to being so tired after teaching all day that I find myself nodding off mid-chapter. It doesn’t help that it’s dark when I get home. I better understand why bears are prone to hibernate when winter arrives. I did manage to find a few books that kept my attention during November–no five stars this month, unfortunately.

The film is far different than this memoir of man remembering his childhood pet
The Patrick Malahide BBC series is definitely a recommended viewing for those who like personality-based mysteries such as Poirot.

Both books were read after watching the film version. So, the adage of “book first” can be adjusted to “book afterwards.”
