S Nabokov was one of our great writers, especially for a man who's native language was Russian. My favorites of his are the funny/sad ones like Lolita, Pale Fire, and Pnin. Enjoy. I've been reading the set of Ed McBain 87th precinct stories/ novels, in chronological order -- about 60 books in 50 years of writing these gems. They're all included in the Kindle Unlimited subscription for $10/ month. What a bargain! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 29, 2020 I watched The Kitchen on HBO last night. It has Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish in it. I don’t care for either lady. But you know what, I’ll watch The Kitchen again. It was good and I liked both Melissa and Tiffany in it. 4 stars out of 5. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
