Continuing with the vintage SF trend from last week I read A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess. I'd seen the movie, so I knew the book held sexual assault and violence. DO NOT READ this book if that is going to be unsettling or triggering for you. But the book is extremely well written, the youth nadsat culture and language are really well developed and the exploration of free will vs. mind control never seemed more relevant than it does today.
I had no idea that someone was writing new Hercule Poirot novels until I picked up The Mystery of Three Quarters by Sophie Hannah at the library. I enjoyed it a lot.
