Rosh ~catching up slowly~ (roshreviews) | 741 comments Poor Girls by Clare Whitfield
Poor Girls by Clare Whitfield
A great historical crime fiction based on an actual gang of female thieves. Had the final quarter been better, this would have rated even higher for me.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 10006 comments End of Story by A.J. Finn is mystery, maybe murder, two unreliable narrators, and a very slow start. 4★s
