Hi you two! Happy reading! :)Just a question - Is this a one time BR for this particular read OR are you going to fill this later with other BRs as well? If it is a general BR thread, I will move it to the other folder. If it is only for this crime book, let it be here! :D
Smitha - When have I read this series? Much less me a connoisseur of it? :O Are you mistaking me with someone else? Or is there another Sri here? :P
EDIT: Not sure if you meant the Peter Grant series though, of which I am a huge fan! :D

Sri.. We are planning to do more buddy reads..
We are planning to do a buddy read for a fantasy after this.
Akshay wrote: "I've read this. Okaish book, don't go expecting Agatha Christie."Is it? I saw this book in overdrive. And thought it looks interesting and started reading the book. And I pulled Vijay also..

This is the first time I am hearing about Peter Grant movies. It looks interesting.. i love such stories where the Ghost doesn't scare us. :)

Sri.. You can move the thread.. As this was the first time, we both were not sure where to create.
or we will finish the buddy read here. And will create a new topic for the new buddy read in the correct section.
I will do as you suggest.
I have finished only 22% of the book. No single clue about the killer.. This week I might be able to make a good progress in the book..
I am at 86% of the book.... really not enjoying the book... bad narration.. unwanted details in between...
From somewhere suddenly some characters are sprouting out.
I wasted so much time in the audio book. And i couldn't understand whets happening. Then I had to stop and start reading the book.
But still the narration was pretty bad..
I am just continuing with the book just for the sake of buddy read and to know what happened to Levy.
i now really don't care who is the killer and why he committed the murder.
I really feel bad that I made Vijay also read this book..
Hopefully, I will finish it today.
Awww.. I came looking to see if the book was good! Too bad Manju! Let's hope your next read will be good! :)
I have read somewhere that Strong Poison in this same series is good. This is one I too had abandoned some time back.
Vijay wrote: "reading this book is more tiresome than going untrained on marathon race...."ha ha ha.. That was a good statement to show how much u r irritated by that book...
Rebecca wrote: "I have read somewhere that Strong Poison in this same series is good. This is one I too had abandoned some time back."I will read that book for sure..
Finally... i have finished the book. Giving 1 star only.
There was nothing good in that book. I didnt even think that the author will kill levy. Atleast the reason for the murder could have been made better.
I used to skip so much conversations as i felt it as unwanted and boring. It waa big relief when i finished the book.
I feel like i have had something bitter and badly wants to have something sweet to remove the taste.. hopefully the next will compensate for this one.
Vijay wrote: "yeah em :-P.... it's 'the name of the wind' by Patrick Rothfuss...is it good??"Didnt like it much. 3 star perhaps... no, make it 2.5
started reading the name of the wind. in between i read couple of other books.
after a long time, i am going to read a fantasy.
from the bit i have read its going to be a completely different.
Last buddy read was not good. I
hope we will enjoy this book.
