Wow another one I really really enjoyed. I was going to pick up the next book in the
Joe Leaphorn & Jim Chee Mystery Novels but I didn't, instead I put it off. And here's why.
My wife kept tuning in all kinds of really irritating (to me) content on the TV. I'd been noticing the TV ads for the release of a new movie version of
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo staring Daniel Craig. It looked interesting and I had picked up the book a while back, but had not yet read it.
So I poked around on my Amazon Prime free movie streaming account and found that the original Swedish movie version dubbed in English was available, so I asked my wife if it was ok if I played a streaming movie. She was OK with the idea. By then she was watching a movie on Spike and a Trojan condom commercial was playing at every one of the numerous commercial breaks, man-oh-man I was really ready for a commercial-less movie. So I switched the TV input to my Roku and played the movie.
Well it was really intriguing and now I'm beginning to read the book.
