I just started the ePub version of Scott Mariani's latest Ben Hope thriller, House of War, from the library; I am trying to preserve my stack of paper books so that I don't run out.

If I remember correctly, that was the one with Burgess Meredith.  A true classic.

When I was a kid, my parents would drop me off on Saturday mornings at a bookshop in southern California called Acres of Books.  And that's what it was, literally, acres of semi-arranged, overflowing bookshelves full of used books, with winding pathways among them.  I was free to wander in there for a couple hours, with a few precious dollars in my pocket to spend on books I wanted, while my parents ran errands.  I wouldn't mind being quarantined there...
But meanwhile, I have an order in at our local library system for an eBook copy of Mozart: A Life in Letters by Stewart Spencer, with Mozart's full correspondence, which I'll be able to read with Adobe Digital Editions on my desktop.

As Western Civilization collapses, decided to reread some of the classics upon which it founded as a send off: Utopia - More

Well, I'm looking at it from a different perspective. Selco Begovic survived the Balkan War as a civilian and he tells of his experiences during that SHTF. He has written 2 books and I'm almost done with the 2nd one. Most war books are written from the perspective of a soldier, these books are not that.

Sort of on a Patricia Cornwell kick of late. That and studying the Middle Fork Salmon river map because my raft hits the water there on the 30th.
