Seven days in the book world with Barbara Hoagland

Barbara was co-owner of TKE for many years, now retired she can be found in Utah or California depending on the season. A Westminster alum Barbara is a voracious reader and her reviews regularly grace the pages of The Inkslinger. Here is Barbara's week in her own words.

"I'm reading all over the map - finished a very long slog of the Romanovs  1613-1918 (by Simon Sebag Montifiore) which was actually fascinating and put our current American politics in perspective.

Nothing cleanses the palate like Bill Bryson and he does it again in The Road to Little Dribbling. It's just a wonderful read.

My not so guilty pleasures are mysteries and there are so many to like. The new Donna Leon is as good as any of her past mysteries. I also recently read Peter Robinson's latest, No Cure For Love. And, yes, I did read all of these last week. Retirement has its advantages!"
