What I've Just Finished Reading

I have completed the first challenge in my 2018 Reading Challenge with The Black Arrow! I'm posting this so late because I decided I wanted to steamroll through the last few chapters to get it done for this week's Wednesday Reading. Stevenson is a real hit-or-miss author for me and this one was mostly a miss, although I did enjoy John Matcham, the girl in boy's clothes (apparently this plotline never gets old for me), and her saucy best friend Alicia.

What I'm Reading Now

A Skinful of Shadows got set aside in favor of The Black Arrow, so I remain exactly where I was last week, lackaday.

What I Plan to Read Next

I went to a library for a job interview today (which went well! I think! It will be at least two weeks before I know) and it seemed like it would be good luck to check out a book while I was there... So I got Nancy Atherton's Aunt Dimity and the Buried Treasure, on the grounds that I have long meant vaguely to check out these books, which are about... um, I think Aunt Dimity is a ghost, and she helps her niece solve mysteries?
