The Wine-Dark Sea by Patrick O'Brian. In which there are volcanoes, pirates, and Peruvian llamas that spit in Stephen's face. Still an insanely peaceful-feeling book. Immediately started the next one. I do have other books I want to read but I can't put these down.

Homicide: Life of the Street (seasons 1 - 3): This feels like The West Wing of cop shows. Great dialogue and ensemble cast. They do this editing thing where it flickers on the same angle a few times and I honestly thought it was bad editing cuts the first time but they do it a lot so it's obviously purposeful and kind of interesting. I'm sure I could find film commentary on it somewhere if I Google a bit. May finish the series eventually when I have Peacock again but right now I need to find something lighter and less depressing than all the detective stuff I've been watching.
