Hi Ti, hard to believe that people are saying it’s a hoax, very scary! Not social distancing is just going to make things much worse. I’m glad you are able to work from home now. And unfortunately I think this crisis is going to last many months. It’s going to be a much different world.

Hi Laurel: good idea to avoid apocalyptic stories now. I think we’re getting enough of that in our daily lives. You’d probably like Forty Autumns though. Stay well!

Thanks Carmen. We watched Knives Out and Jojo Rabbit this past weekend … and thought they were worthwhile. Perhaps I liked Jojo a bit more but see what you think.

It seems it’s to stay for a while since asymptomatic people are sources of contagion besides social contact. I haven’t seen JjR nor KO but I already rented them out. They are waiting in the queue, maybe this weekend…Stay safe.

I might take a look at Forty Autumns, though.

Thanks for sharing and for visiting my blog.

Hey Carmen: good to hear from you. My trip next week was canceled so I’m homebound now and will see what happens here this week. I think it will likely continue to spread for awhile but will it slow? I thought you had read Harris … and I think I’d like to read a few others he’s done sometime maybe Fatherland and Pompeii. He got me right into the story. Also I think this weekend we might rent at home Knives Out and Jojo Rabbit …. since still need to see those. Did you like them? Hope you stay well!

Yeah Dorothy — I think I listened to the Harris book before the virus really became major news and I wasn’t really seeking an apocalyptic kind of book. This one is told a bit differently too which helped. The Forty Autumns book I think you might like. Luckily my library had it. Thanks you stay safe too.

Stay safe. Keep reading.
