The Evening Spider was OK, but the resolution of one of the dual storylines was a bit unsatisfying. I followed that up with Arcadia Falls, by Carol Goodman. I mostly enjoyed this one--another book with a somewhat similar setup, where the protagonist uncovers information about the past, mostly through a previously hidden journal. Every time I read this kind of story, I find the past events so much more compelling than the present-day events. Arcadia Falls seemed to drag on a bit too long, the twists weren't all that twisty, and it had too many characters to keep track of. Still, I enjoyed it and will add this author's other works to my wish list.
I'm not sure what to listen to next . . .
