I recently tore through the Lincoln Lawyer series on audiobook. Total escapism and not necessarily something that is challenging me intellectually, but so much fun! Michael Connelly is truly a master of crime fiction. I’m sad now that I finished the series, so I’m starting to check out some of his other books. I really like how his characters come alive and feel like real, flawed people. I think there is a lot to be learned by the way he writes, and I hope one day I can write something as entertaining.

For today’s prompt, write something in honor of or inspired by someone you’re reading or have read recently. If you’re stuck, try stealing one of the book’s lines to start off your piece.
