Happy weekend, everyone! This roundup was actually ready to go earlier in the week – I just needed to write the intro – and then an ice storm hit and took power and internet with it. But it's back now, which means you get a rare weekend roundup. Because these books were just too good … Continue reading Reading Roundup #91: Let the Devil Take Tomorrow
