As it turns out none of the books I want to read are in the Kindle Owners' Lending Library. In fact, Kindle Unlimited doesn't have those books either. Good bye to the "Lending Library" as well as Kindle Unlimited.

Didn't like this book, so I quit reading it.

I skipped through this one, then sent it to my brother. Fascinating, but not riveting reading.

I quit reading this one. Didn't like it at all.

I have long been a fan of anything Japanese. Now, at this late date, this book is opening my eyes to what a closed country Japan is, even now. So much for a romantic view. Still, I'm appreciating (if not enjoying) learning about Japanese prejudices against Koreans, pre- and post wars.

I dip into this book when I get breaks from others. It doesn't drive me to continue, although it is very good.

I'm loving The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie. Flavia, 11 years old, precocious and fearless is so much fun. Obnoxious to her sisters, invisible while she investigates a murder, she leaves her bicycle, Gladys, to graze while waiting for Flavia to return. The voice makes me chuckle. Thanks to Corinne for the recommendation. I look forward to more Flavia books.
