Shooting Columbo, by David Koenig

  • Title: Shooting Columbo
  • Author: David Koenig
  • Purchased Hardback
  • Started: 8/23/2021
  • Finished: 9/7/2021
Big Columbo fan so was curious to see what I'd learn from this one.  Interesting to fans, but probably not to a wider audience.  Relatively deep knowledge of the episodes will be necessary for most readers to enjoy this -- unless you plan to watch each episode before reading the chapters.

Overall enjoyed it -- not as much as I wanted to... but I'm a fan and Koenig clearly is too.

Claudius the God: and his wife Messalina, by Robert Graves

Title: Claudius the God: and his wife Messalina
Author: Robert Graves
Borrowed from Fairfax county public library audiobook
Started: 8/22/2021
Finished: 9/5/2021

As I said when I finished the first book in this series, I, Claudius, this is probably my third reading.  I love these books.  Probably close to an annual read for me.
