  3. I want to find a restaurant gem, especially if our kitchen is being renovated and we are getting takeout all the time. I enjoy Anne Cleeves and would like to read more of her books.

  8. How fun to find horses at Golden Gate Park!

    The Sleeping Nymph sounds like my sort of story.

    I'm always on the lookout for virtual author events. That's one good thing about the pandemic, I think.
