#WanderingJune

(Day 17 - #LostInFrance)

*Best loved PI Aimee Leduc is back in Cara Black‘s popular series. The tagged book is the 14th of the series, where we find a five-months pregnant Leduc trying to solve a series of rapes in Pigalle; meanwhile, in the hot, sticky summer of 1998, French football fans are on the march, eagerly awaiting the World Cup. The book involves a missing teenager, hence my comparison of it with the song prompt.

Cinfhen I love your collages. They tell such a full story 😍‼️ not familiar with this series?! Are you @TrishB @EadieB @Andrew65 # MySeriesSquad 5y

EadieB @Cinfhen @trishb @Andrew65 I have 7 of her books but haven‘t read them yet! @gradcat (edited) 5y
gradcat @EadieB @Andrew65 @TrishB Black has about 19 or 20 books in the series, and I thought it was a fairly popular series, but if you three don‘t know it/haven‘t read it...I think I‘m wrong about that. They‘re all set in France & feature a female PI. I have a friend who loves them—I just never got around to trying them...oops! 5y
gradcat @Cinfhen Thank you very much...I love your nice comments so much! 5y
EadieB @gradcat We can do a buddy Read of this series if you would like. 5y
gradcat @eadieb I‘m game—how do those work? 5y
EadieB @gradcat Looks like book 1 and 2 of the series are not that good but book 3 and 4 have better ratings. I guess we need to read book 1 and 2 for background info so just wanted to let you know. We need to pick a date and then we can post that we are doing a Buddy Read for this series and tag people who we think would interested. 5y
gradcat @EadieB Yeah, I noticed the same thing as you...had the same feelings. It does look like you need to read them, though...Could we possibly wait until next month? Things are just a bit hectic at the moment...♥️ 5y
EadieB @gradcat ok let me know when you are ready. 5y
gradcat @EadieB Any time after July 1st is perfect...you choose what‘s best for you! 5y
Andrew65 @TrishB 😂 Quite an achievement for neither of us to be aware of a series. 5y
Andrew65 @gradcat I echo those comments about things being hectic at the moment! I resemble that remark. 😱 Providing I can get hold of them happy to join in towards the end of next month. Next 5 weeks are the busiest of the school year. Finish on 19th July. Will research them. @EadieB (edited) 5y
Andrew65 Can see why not heard of them @TrishB Library has one of the series only (book 8). Have suggested they buy the first one.🤞And far from cheap with Amazon. @EadieB @gradcat (edited) 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 @gradcat ok well we can wait and see who can get a copy of book 1 and can start Buddy Read at the end of July. Just let us know when everyone is ready. @Trishb @Tove_Reads 5y
TrishB I‘ll join in if I can, like @Andrew65 I‘m pretty hectic until after graduation mid July now! @EadieB 5y
gradcat @Andrew65 @TrishB @EadieB I‘m going along with whatever you guys want...it‘ll be fun, though...I can‘t wait! I did see that the books weren‘t any cheaper for being older releases.... 5y
Tove_Reads @gradcat @eadieb @trishb @andrew65 My library has it and I‘ll get it soon! - Nope, checked the wrong one. I asked them to get the first one. (edited) 5y
gradcat @Tove_Reads Yeah, sorry...I think the book I used is her 14th or so...kind of misleading. Sorry for the trouble! 😐 5y
Tove_Reads @gradcat No worries, I thought I got the first book in the series, but it was the first book in the series that the library had. 5y
gradcat @Tove_Reads Oh, good! 5y
