James Comey's debut thriller, 'Central Park West,' is short on thrills - The Washington Post “As this stale dialogue grinds on, I realize that helping to deliver four years of Donald Trump is not the worst thing Comey has ever done.” https://t.co/6so8yXDKp4

‘Urrea writes heart-pounding action scenes that are also lyrical. A bombed hotel “wept dust.” Roofs “come apart like leaves in an upward wind.” A wounded soldier cups his hands to try to catch blood gushing from his forehead, “as if he were in prayer.”’ https://t.co/xWGx1ZNuZd

Current read is THE GALTON CASE by Ross Macdonald (from @LibraryAmerica edition Four Novels of the 1950s). Rich characterizations. Secrets below the surface: America in 1959. Macdonald was a hell of a storyteller. #FridayReads

I like how, on my bookshelf, Stephen Graham Jones’s novels rest alongside Shirley Jackson’s THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE. Well, maybe not rest.
