Well, it’s
my damned blog, and I can do anything I want with it. Right?
Well, I have grown a little tired of watching old movies in the
evenings, then writing snarky little reviews.
Instead, I have set myself to reading ALL of Tony Hillerman’s Leaphorn-Chee novels, in the order they were
written. So far I have consumed the
first two, and am half way through the third.
There are about a dozen more to go – so, no Golden Oldies for a while. But, of course, I may change my mind. Like I said already, it’s my damned blog.
In case you
never have encountered the Hillerman books, they are mysteries set in the Navajo
reservation of Arizona/New Mexico and contiguous scraps of territory. Leaphorn and Chee are Navajo cops. The adventures Hillerman weaves about them
are, to my tastes, highly entertaining, and quite absorbing. Additionally, we Belligani can learn a lot
about Navajo culture and 4-Corners geography by reading these books. The first one is called Blessing Way. Read it, and
you’ll be hooked.
Love the way you pursue your interests and share them with us. Keep blogging.
ReplyDeleteAlready hooked! A wonderful part of the world. I bought a couple of them at a thrift store not that long ago. I wonder where they went?
ReplyDeleteI loved those books! It's been a long time - maybe time to read them again.
