The Sundial (Farrar, 1958) by Shirley Jackson

The Sundial (Farrar, 1958) by Shirley Jackson

I’m reading The Sundial by Shirley Jackson in the original hardcover edition from the library. I started it too late to join in the “Read in Peril” group conversation, but I’m hooked now, so I need to finish it.

Completed for RIP (Read in Peril) Challenge

Currently Listening To

Timing downloadable audiobook loans from the library can be problematic, and mine have gotten jumbled this past week, with expirations and then becoming available again sooner than I think they will, so I’ve currently got three audiobooks going for this week. Luckily, they are all different enough from each other that I won’t get them mixed up.

The Other Black Girl (Simon & Schuster, 2021) by Zakiya Dalila Harris

The Other Black Girl (Simon & Schuster, 2021) by Zakiya Dalila Harris, read by multiple narrators

The Other Black Girl by Zakiya Dalila Harris is making me tense, as something bad’s about to happen, has already happened, or is in the process of happening, for the main characters (on a dual timeline), but there is no way I’m going to stop listening now, so I’m breaking my own rule about avoiding psychological suspense.

The Last Graduate (Random House Audio, 2021) by Naomi Novik
