Just finished listening to Bad Blood by John Carreyrou. Searching for my next audiobook now.

I'm working my way through the Aubrey Maturin novels again. Up to The Far Side of the World so far, which is one of the two books the Russell Crowe flick was based on.
I re-read them during the lock-down. That series is one of my favorites.
They're brilliantly written. Not just the action and sailing parts but the dialogue is wonderful.
Talking of sailing have you watched The North Water? Lots of Stephen Graham stuff lately which is always good.

Mo Hayder died?! She was so young.
Loved her.
If I'm not mistaken that's Lou Gherig's disease. There's an excellent 1942 film called The Pride of the Yankees with Gary Cooper that is definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it. Sigh. And no more Jack Caffery. Apparently she has one more novel coming out posthumously in 2022, set in an alternate reality. I think it was written under a different pen name. It'll be interesting to see how much, and how well, she deviates from her usual genre.

I saw that, I really wish it was a Jack Caffrey one. Might be brill though, Nanking is my favourite of hers.
Did you know she used to be a topless model!
I'm re-reading the Hornblower books
