Books I Have Read This Year
I'm finding that I am not really wolfing down a series all at once, even if I can.
A Broken Vessel - Kate Ross - Regency mystery. A good read. Unfortunately, there are only 4 of them, and since the author is deceased, there will not be more. :(
Unnatural Death - Dorothy Sayers - decent Peter Wimsey. I was surprised at some of the passing racism, (and sexism?) though that could be an artifact of the time it was written in.
Passing - Nella Larsen - a short book, very, very good. About passing for white, and the effects it has on 2 women's lives in 1920s Harlem. I will probably be buying a copy from Dover.
