A murder-mystery within a murder-mystery and both of them compelling in themselves. I loved this one! It is unique and clever!

This was fabulous!! I love the book within a book and LOVE the Clue-esque way Atticus explains the machinations behind the murder. @RaeLovesToRead thanks for the glowing rec, I loved it!! This was my #doublespin for January, @TheAromaofBooks 😊

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! I have had this one on my shelf forever!!! 3mo
CBee @TheAromaofBooks it‘s really good! 3mo

- My festive stack 🎄🎁💕

- Locked room - especially a country house, or a secluded island. Also a decent cast of zany characters!

The META!!!! Even as a relative newbie to the murder mystery genre, this was engrossing on a number of levels, in how it plays with the tropes of, existing canon of, and popular perceptions of, the murder mystery genre. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality I'm realizing that the divide between a cozy murder mystery and this type of more classic murder mystery is you don't have the same assurance that there's a pleasant detective-type and a warm support group who are automatically above suspicion. 2/? 10mo
Robotswithpersonality You have to read this type of murder mystery for the puzzle, not the people, because as basically everybody is a suspect, you don't get much time with or good feelings about any one character - even if they're not the murderer, their secrets are being laid bare in the course of the investigation and they're understandably disgruntled and defensive about being investigated; even the detective, paraphrasing the book, is an outsider, and the detective's support group are little more than flunkies. 3/? 10mo
Robotswithpersonality It's not as clear cut a case of 'everyone's unlikeable' as seems to be the formula in the thrillers I encountered prior to realizing that's not a genre for me, but it does mean that I'll probably always lean towards cozy mysteries, and only be lured back to classic murder mysteries by the promise of a good puzzle, because that's what made this book. 4/? 10mo
See All 7 Comments
Robotswithpersonality I am the first to label myself extremely gullible so I suppose my proclamations of masterful mystery should be considered subjective, but I truly had a great time with the last fifty pages.
To that end, patience is required for this read. The book within the book aspect is laid out in a way I haven't encountered before, such that in this case you read a few pages of one, most of the other, and then switch back, and are left after 200 pages of buildup, with a cliffhanger for another 200 pages.
And yet, yes, I definitely will be reading the next book in this series.
5/6

Robotswithpersonality 6/6 ⚠️ Loved one with dementia, classism, ableism, xenophobia, fatphobia, homophobia, child abuse 10mo
Billypar I never thought about the actual dividing line between cozy and classic mysteries being about the existence of a detective's support group that is above suspicion. Great insight! 10mo

Did they end up creating the phrase 'war crimes', because they wanted to differentiate what they would actually arrest people for, from all the awful things that normally happen in war? 😞

2) I'm looking forward to reading my current reads:- The Priory of the Orange Tree & Magpie Murders.

3) Stuart Turton (mystery with a difference), and even more recently, I've been impressed by Tom Hindle, David Olusoga, Kiley Reid, Masako Togawa, Dave Eggers, and Emily St John Mandel.

Very suspenseful; I couldn't put it down--though I found it difficult to remember what happened a few days later. Is that because there are too many details, or is my brain slowing down in retirement? Regardless, a fun read!

Favorite quote: “Alan invented all sorts of ways of expressing things so that only he and I understood. He used language as a place for us to hide.“

A soft pick. I have a feeling this will be a case of me enjoying the series more than the book. It was entertaining enough but went on a bit too long. Also was too similar to The Appeal in terms of it being a “cosy mystery.” Need to get back to my gritty serial killers. 😈

Do you ever pick up a book only to realize that it is not at all what you expected? I didn‘t realize that this was essentially an entire small English village murder mystery a la Agatha Christie embedded in another mystery novel. That would be fine, except it‘s not what I want to be reading right now, so I am putting it to the side. I‘ll probably come back to it at a later date.

A mystery book within a mystery book, both containing mysteries that allude to one another. A nested murder mystery, by Horowitz who I was more familiar with from his TV work. Plenty of call backs to his TV roots and little cozy mystery tie-ins that are made throughout. It was a really fun read, even if I was able to pick out the killer fairly early on.

I‘d never heard of this book, nor the author. But my husband knows I love crows and picked it up for me on a whim one day based solely on the cover.

Holy cow, it turned out to be such a great read!! Two books in one. A handful of characters which you have to try and keep straight. A quaint setting including a mansion. Death. It brought to mind the game Clue and how, if it was a book, this would probably be it.

A clever dual mystery, with lots of clues that don‘t seem to fit and an equal amount of likeable, unlikeable, and just plain suspicious characters. I found it a little slow paced, and there were some digs at the publishing industry that felt a little pointed, but overall a fun read. Susan was an engagingly unwilling detective, and I think I‘ll read the next one…

A lot of easy reading in August as it was a lovely week in Northumberland so I am going purely on that memory of reading with fish and chips, beer, views, the North Sea and of course already excellent whodunnit with opportunity for a good litsy photo.

When I picked my reading for this week I found this unread & a perfect start as the author takes the classic murder mystery and mirrors it with a modern investigation as an editor has to solve both a missing last chapter of the whodunnit as well as the apparent suicide of the famously unlikeable writer. Anthony Horowitz brilliantly nods and winks at classic bks with joyous skill.
