Choices

I have two new books on my kindle.  The first one starts, "We live with ghosts.  We live with thugs, dodgers, punkers, needle ladies, pork knuckle.  We live where there's no place else to go."

Book two, "There are too many bodies," I said under my breath.  "Of course there are," Laney called from the other side of the wall.

Which to choose, which to choose.
