My review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[PattyMacDotComma]

The Short Story Club recently read Separating written in 1974 by John Updike. An American couple is deciding how to tell their four teens that they are splitting up. American suburban angst.
4★ My review of Separating with a link to the story online.

Pond is a curious meandering through the narrator's mind by Claire-Louise Bennett. Some stories are pointedly funny and self-deprecating, some are dreamy and philosophical.
4.5~5★ My review of Pond

Everybody Knows is my kind of thriller. Almost believable with a strong female lead. My four star review:

Christine wrote: "I can highly recommend "Travels with Charley" by John Steinbeck."

I read that one a few months ago. I really enjoyed the first two thirds of the book but I felt like it fell off in the final leg of the trip, somewhere around Texas specifically. I was also disillusioned to learn that Steinbeck made up most of the experiences he had on the trip.

I've finished reading The Nine Tailors for the group read this month. I have a question. Why would so many people vote for this book and then not bother to read it? It's a bit on the boggy side but the mystery at its core is solid.

[Nancy, Co-Moderator]

Forgot to mention that I'm starting Green for Danger by Christianna Brand.

I didn't vote for it and I did comment, but I'd already read the book

I thought I was going to re-read it (or get back to re-reading it) but discovered I had never finished re-reading The Five Red Herrings so I went back to that instead.

...not really a "thriller" but there is a murder.

[Barbara]

An Evil Heart by Linda Castillo

In this addition to the series, Police Chief Kate Burkholder investigates the brutal murder of a young Amish man on Rumspringa.

Good mystery set in Painters Mill, Ohio. 3.5 stars

Going a bit retro this week with THE FOURTH PROTOCOL by Frederick Forsyth. I haven't read a Forsyth book in several years and this one, published back in 1984, was adapted into a movie in 1987 starring Michael Caine and Pierce Brosnan. My wife really liked the movie, so I relented and picked up a paperback copy to sample.

[Thomas]

I read Death at Whitewater Church by. Andrea Carter. It is book 1 in the series and I recommend it to cozy mystery fans. My 4 star review. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I love that book!

I'm caught between reading what I really want to read and finishing up reading possible selections for my IRL book group's list for when we come back together in September. The good news is that I have to have it finished by the end of May so I can get back to normal shortly.

Still reading Green for Danger and so far, although I haven't made much progress, I think it's going to be a good one.

Wildfire

[Barbara]

Six Ostriches by Philipp Schott

This Dr. Bannerman Vet Mystery is set in a Canadian town in early spring. It features animal desecration, Nordic cults, murder, tattoos, and a good sniffer dog.

Engaging cozy-ish mystery in an interesting setting. 3.5 stars

My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[CBRetriever]

cozy = animal desecration?

[Barbara]

CBRetriever wrote: "cozy = animal desecration?"

Yeah I know, it doesn't fit perfectly. But the book has that small town cozyish vibe. We need a new sub-genre for these kinds of books.

My review of Witch Upon a Star by Angela M. Sanders

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[PattyMacDotComma]

Dawoud/Dawit/David's attempt to get from Eritrea to Israel meant he had to keep changing his identity and left him feeling like black foam, tossed around but never allowed to settle. In Black Foam: A Novel by Eritrean author Haji Jabir, you can see what he's up against. Moving and eye-opening.
4★ My review of Black Foam
