📓TRUE CRIME Group Read: Midnight in Peking: How the Murder of a Young Englishwoman Haunted the Last Days of Old China
November marks a new feature for the group. Our Collection feature. You can find the folder regarding this Collection here.
Here is a note from Lisa regarding this feature:
This list of books comes from a book that was read during a Crime, Mysteries & Thrillers Buddy Read this summer. The author published a list entitled "Mysteries For A Cold Winter's Night, and a few of us thought it would be fun to read them all as part of an ongoing discussion over the winter months. The read will run from Nov 2020 - Mar 2021, at a pace of roughly two books per month. Participants can read as many or as few as desired, joining in discussions along the way.
📚COLLECTION Group Reads:
beginning Nov 1: The Sittaford Mystery
beginning Nov 15: The Nine Tailors
November's Group Reads discussions will be open on Wednesday, October 28.
December Nominations are now open and will close on Sunday, November 1 at approximately 7:30pm PDT (UTC/GMT -7).
