Finished Book 3 of Poldark: JEREMY POLDARK

5912439

In the third book of the series, Ross is tried for rioting and looting two ships and causing injury to tax men interfering.  The feud with George Warleggan deepens.  The everyday difficulties of life in post American Revolutionary England is enhanced by characters I find myself liking and therefore deeply invested in.  Excellent.

I have now just barely started The Girl in the Spider's Web, a continuation of the Lisbeth Salander saga, this one by David Lagercrantz.  Prior to this, this Swedish author has been concerned with mostly journalism and non-fiction.  But reviews for this seem pretty good.  Having mourned Stieg Larsson's death after having read his three Lisbeth Salander books, I hope this one stands up.  What a shame for the series to die.  I've already encountered an autisic child who hasn't had much of a chance in his world and am now catching up on what Mikael Blomkvist has been up to.
