Yesterday I finished Hercule Poirot: The Complete Short Stories and today read More William not often I read a book in a day, but not often I read books less than 200 pages! Still a week left of classics month and not sure what to read next.

I loved Akwaeke Emezi's debut novel, Freshwater, but I think other readers will enjoy The Death of Vivek Oji more than I did. Love, sex, acceptance.

I finished The Unwelcome Guest by Amanda Robson


Entertaining read! Here's my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Just finished Count to Three by T.R. Ragan

3 stars, entertaining, but not what would normally please me when it comes to reading a thriller/detective with a psycho as a bad guy!
I missed the details... and the ending, where multiple cases were solved, felt unnatural to me.

I'll be reading Freshwater sometime in the near future; I liked The Death of Vivek Oji but I have heard Freshwater is much better so I'm really looking forward to it.

Not crime (again), but I'm reading Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro.

[Lance]

Vanishing Act gives us an intriguing character in an unusual and well-realized setting, then fails to stick the landing with a plot that didn't spend enough time in the cookpot over the campfire. This is the first of nine books in the series, so there's hope that the author works out his plotting problems in subsequent episodes. Three lake trout.

Finished Djinn Patrol on the Purple Line by Deepa Anappara. Won the top Edgar award recently but works better as a coming of age tale than crime fiction. Rating - 3.5/5

The Heron's Cry by Ann Cleeves

Detective Inspector Matthew Venn investigates murders in an artsy community in North Devon.

The detectives are as interesting as the mystery. 3.5 stars

[Araych]

Ten Big Ones by Janet Evanovich

Stephanie Plum #10 or maybe 11, OK to read as a stand-alone. I've been reading the series in order and this is possibly the best one yet. Hilarious, reads like one of those 30's screwball comedies. Highly recommended.

[Elizabeth A.G.]

I read Red Bones by Ann Cleeves
I rate it 4 stars. It is book 3 in the Shetland series, and I recommend that you read them in order. The central character admits that he has trouble explaining what a "Procurator Fiscal" is. I have included a relevant quote in my review.

Could one of you lovely people do me a favor? Please go to the GR homepage and look to see if you can update your reading status. I don't see anywhere to do so but maybe it's just me. Thank you.

[Nancy, Co-Moderator]

Actually, thanks ahead of time, but don't worry. For some reason goodreads opened in the app version (which I do not have on this tablet) instead of the desktop version. All fixed now.

The earlier Alistair MacLean books were his best. I read them so many when I was a kid.

If you change your mind, consider giving The Tiger in the Smoke a chance. Bit of a slow burn, but I found it a very interesting novel.

You have to at least try one Campion novel. The casebook had some interesting stories, but they are not really representative of her nicely-done Campion books.
