Sharks' Couture starts book club

As self-isolation and social distancing continue, San Jose Sharks forward Logan Couture is looking for a new way to engage with fans.

The Sharks captain is starting a book club.

"I know everyone wishes we were playing hockey, but right now we need to take the necessary precautions to stay safe and healthy," Couture wrote. "With this added free time on my hands, I often find myself getting lost in a good book. I'm really into psychological and legal thrillers, as well as murder-mysteries."

The first book Couture will be reading is "The Rule of Law" by John Lescroart. The 18th book of Lescroart's Dismas Hardy series, it follows an attorney who has to defend his assistant, who is being charged as an accessory to murder.

"If this sounds interesting to you, I encourage you to read along. Once I finish the book, I'll be back to give you my official book review," Couture wrote. He'll also share a list of some of his favorite books.
