“The Girl Who Stopped Swimming” – by Joshilyn Jackson – creepy ghost story/dysfunctional family story (what can I say? It’s winter in New England)
“The Life and Times of Benjamin Franklin” – by H W Brands – got interested after a visit to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia
“Pirate Latitudes” – by Michael Crichton – story found on his computer after his death
“The Queen’s Mistake” – by Diane Haeger- historical fiction for my online bookclub

And yes – I’m reading them all at once! 😉
