Did She Mean Humor Too?

Today at CostCo, at the book counter, of course, a young woman picked up a book, showed it to someone with her, and said, “I’ve read this. So-and-so gave it to me.”

I barged in with “Is it good? Is it a mystery?” (Strangers do converse around these books.)

She said, “It is mystery, and a little romance, and . . . a bit of gore.”

I said, “Al?”

She and he laughed. She said, “Oh, you’ll like it,” based on what I'd said.

I bought it. But I won’t advertise it here till I’ve read it. And I bought three others. Give me time.
