I finished The Aosawa Murders yesterday but I'm reading it again. This book seems to invite a second read.

My Review

[Atlanta]

Started on the first jack reacher book, killing floor.

[Matthew]

Am almost 3/4 of the way through Gone Girl. Yeah, I know, way to live in the past, man. Heh. I haven't seen the movie but know the twist--no surprise since reviews of other books and movies in the past few years have referenced it by saying "such and such a character Gone Girled himself or herself"--but that has in no way diminished my enjoyment of the story. If anything, knowing the twist has enhanced my appreciation for how clever a writer Gillian Flynn is. She plays completely fair with her readers.

The Sun Down Motel

[Barbara]

Before the Fall by Noah Hawley

When a private plane crashes, the only man who survives saves the life of a young boy. Hailed as a hero at first, the man is soon harassed by naysayers and social media. (You can picture it, right? 🤨)

Interesting story. 3 stars

You may find yourself looking over your shoulder more than usual! I loved it!

One of my favourite authors is Aussie Sulari Gentill who writes the delightful Rowland Sinclair historical mystery series. I loved Paving the New Road. He and his friends are in Munich in 1933, watching the frightening rise of Hitler and Fascism.

A Book of Bones by John Connolly

Intrepid private investigator Charlie Parker - who has supernatural abilities - is chasing a long-time enemy and trying to prevent Armageddon. The book can be read as a standalone but does refer back to earlier books in the series.

Good book but there are too many extraneous story lines. 3 stars

[Christine]

Sandy how are both of your books going?

[Gretchen]

Listening to Woman in the Woods by John Connolly.

[Araych]

Then We Take Berlin by John Lawton

Officially labeled a spy story, this is actually a wonderful, vivid, detailed historical novel mostly about two people -- John Holderness, an English crook put into the spy service during WW II, and his adventures in Germany just after the war, and Nell Burkhardt, a German girl who sees far too much.
Even though the ending is poorly done (possibly setting up a sequel) I still gave this book 5 stars -- highly recommended.

[Barbara]

I just finished with Shatter by Michael Robotham
I didn't finish it, just finished with it because it was so unpleasant, unbelievable, too long, I liked maybe one of the characters - not the main one - and I just didn't see any point in sticking with it. Saw a great review of one of his books, and this one was the only one my library had so I gave it a shot.

If you can locate the original film, it's awesome. The remake not so hot.

[Nancy, Co-Moderator]

a lot of heavy reading lately so I'm back with Agatha Christie and Five Little Pigs.

I also finished my second read of The Aosawa Murders; chills up and down my spine.

[Bill]

I gave up on a book today, probably the 2nd time in the past many years. The Meaning of Night by Michael Cox. I'm probably setting aside an excellent book, but after 100+ pages, I just got tired of it.. :0(

[Nancy, Co-Moderator]

Well, I finished Five Little Pigs before noon and quite enjoyed it. Then since the spouse is away, I read and fnished The Sun Down Motel, three hours I will never get back. Good grief.
