I enjoy reading mysteries for relaxation, and it is always pure pleasure to find a literary mystery. Irish writer Tana French, whom I just discovered this year, is a brilliant author. Her books are not formula mysteries but beautifully crafted novels with complex plots and characters. In the The Witch Elm, a tree is rendered with the strength of a character. From beginning to end, French's writing flows with a command of psychological drama, nuance, poetic phrases, and surprising metaphors that create her story's environment, mood, and suspense. I couldn't put it down!

Coming Up Short is a memoir by Robert Reich, who was Secretary of Labor under President Clinton. He advised other presidents on labor matters and writes from his vast experience fighting for American workers over many decades. He writes from his personal and professional experience fighting against bullies and advocating for workers and their families. He foresaw the the rise of oligarchs that we have today and the widening income gap between the one percent of wealthy Americans and everyone else in the U.S. This is an inside view, spiced with many anecdotes, of our current political situation and how we got to this point in our history.
