Book buzz

This week’s buzz report may be mislabeled. The only book that caught my eye is already a bestseller. The Thirteenth Tale, by Diane Setterfield. I’ve been in a vaguely impatient literary kind of mood lately. I find myself irritated by repetition faster than usual, disgruntled by plot holes and disillusioned with type cast characters straight from central casting. Perhaps my new obsession with writing craft and the Deep Editing class I’m taking have temporarily ruined me for trashy books.
