October pleasure reading, part 3

This month I also read The Existential Detective by Alice Thompson.  Honestly, I only picked this book up from the New and Noteworthy section of the Duke library because I saw my name on it, but it turned out to be really interesting and a quick read.  It was a story about a private detective who was hired to find a man’s wife.  Throughout the course of the story,  he keeps flashing back to earlier points in his life where we find out he had a daughter who was abducted and never found.  Anyway, the book has a nice, if weird, ending and that’s really all I need from my books.
