THIS WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: Do you have a “kindred” reading buddy — someone who very closely shares your taste in books? If not, do you wish you did?
We had a lot of rain over the last week and I used the time to do some serious reading.  I had 3 library books that I wanted to read and I got them all read.  I listened to Midnight Texas by Charlaine Harris and wanted to see how the series would progress.  Day Shift started off interesting but kind of tapered off a the story progressed.  It did give a lot more history about the main characters and there was a mystery to be solved.  I have not read her other series.  There is a little tie in between the two but that part just left me in the dark.
J.A. Jance has a new Ali Reynolds book and that was one of my other reads.  Cold Betrayal featured Ali and Sister Anselm.  There were two mysteries and both were interesting.  I like the series and love Ali and B her much younger husband.
Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson was my other read.  This is book two in the series and both books were very long.  This is a series I share with one of my sons and he brought me up to date on the next book.  Sanderson has just started it so I have quite a wait to see what will happen next.
Two of my sons are my reading buddies.  I do belong to a Sci Fi Books club where some of the members share my taste.
