I loved reading Hunter's essay- it gave me a couple lightbulb moments with regard to my reading life this past year (and currently). I was thrilled to put together my list of some of my favorite winter mysteries too, there's something so nostalgic about revisiting past favorites. I'm listening to the Ezra Klein interview asap, and I loved reading the NYT article about the author of Martyr!. Also, you may have convinced me to pull My Husband out of my DNF pile - I dnfed it back in June for one particular reason but weird books overall have been and are working for me and I love unreliable narrators and surprises so I think I'll give it another try

The Frozen River was a DNF for me because of all the anachronisms, and I’m normally not that picky! I think it was the zipper on the doctor bag that did it for me...

I just finished My Husband and loved it! You described it so well. I adore R. Eric Thomas, so I’m glad to see you loved his latest release.

That Ezra Klein episode about taste was so interesting! And I LOVED The Frozen River so much that I ordered the book about Martha Ballard (A Midwife’s Tale).

Listening to The Husband, 1/21. I had to stop moving around, sit down, and let the excellantently voiced narration melt into my ears. Some phrasing of foreshadowing?? Intrigued and captivated.
