Caroline Kepnes woke up The Bad Friend with a satisfying (to me) surprise in her short story from the #NeverTell collection.

A cute new children's picture book, A Wild Windy Night by Yui Abe is wilder and windier than little Ricky expected!

The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon

Highly recommended. 4 stars

[CBRetriever]

reading Dead Find by T.F. Muir which concerns a body found on St Andrews golf course that was placed there years ago. An interesting murder mystery (police) set in Scotland.

[Christine]

Sandy how’s your book going called One Long Weekend by Shari Low?

[Andrew✌️]

In these days I'm reading Murder by the Minster, a funny type of cozy mystery. Sometimes it's good to read some like this, without too much gore or excessive violence

Reading It

Finished Don't Fear the Reaper, which was excellent (though, if you're squeamish, it is gory in spots). Have started the third in the trilogy, The Angel of Indian Lake.

Nonna Maria and the Case of the Lost Treasure by Lorenzo Carcaterra

In this addition to the Nonna Maria series, the shrewd Italian grandmother has two goals: to foil an assassination and to help a young woman find the treasure left by her grandfather. The book works fine as a standalone.

Pleasurable cozy mystery. 3.5 stars

Kicking off this week with the excellent historical mystery The Paris Mistress by Mally Becker https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Araych]

The Last Word by Elly Griffiths

Falsely advertised as a Ruth Galloway mystery -- it isn't, she doesn't appear. Reminded me of Richard Osman's retiree detectives. I liked the cast, I liked the plot other than the solution to the murders. I liked it but I didn't love it. 3 stars.

[Barbara]

Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky

In this seriocomic sci-fi novel, a valet robot kills his master, and then tries everything he can to get a new valet job.

Tchaikovsky is a good sci-fi writer. 4 starts

CR Explosive Eighteen by Janet Evanovich

[Araych]

The Limehouse Text by Will Thomas

Barker and Llewelyn #3. London, 1885. The Victorian era. The search for a mysterious Chinese book is causing no end of trouble including several murders. Another very interesting and well done historical mystery featuring precursors to our era private eyes. I liked it, 3 stars.

[Barbara]

I read this cozy mystery series out of order (but all the books work as standalones). I got this debut book in a Goodreads giveaway, so I finally got to read the debut novel (this book).



Nonna Maria and the Case of the Missing Bride by Lorenzo Carcaterra

A grandmother called Nonna Maria helps helps a young woman who was bamboozled into a marriage engagement; and she investigates a murder.
