The Hangman
The Hangman | Louise Penny
19 posts | 40 read | 20 to read
On a cold November morning, a jogger runs through the woods in the peaceful Quebec village of Three Pines. On his run, he finds a dead man hanging from a tree. The dead man had been a guest at the local Inn and Spa. He might have been looking for peace and quiet, but something else found him. Something horrible. Did the man take his own life? Or was he murdered? Chief Inspector Armand Gamache is called to the crime scene. As Gamache follows the trail of clues, he opens a door into the past. And he learns the true reason why the man came to Three Pines. This novella is a quick and easy read for people on the go.

Super fast novella set in Three Pines. Penny really takes her storytelling down to cover the basic facts of the case, with just enough of a twist to add some depth to the story. Some of the series regulars appear in the story, which technically falls between book six and seven in the series (though you can read this one wherever in the sequence, as it does not bring up any prior cases).

🎧 I‘m not familiar with this author. This is a novella. Perfect length! (Hoopla)

A jogger comes across a suicide/hanging while jogging in a remote area.

Chief Inspector Gamache investigates and finds several interesting twists!

I need to add some more of her books to my TBR.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

kspenmoll She is wonderful! Love her Three Pines series. 2y
Twainy @kspenmoll I just found this series on Audible!! The Hangman is book 6.5 in that series! I can‘t wait to try a full length novel! Thank you! 2y

Soscha I can‘t tag it yet since it doesn‘t release until tomorrow but I just finished Renee Rose‘s “Alpha Bully: Wolf Ridge High Book 1” if I can use that to guess A. 5y
Brithomas17 Nooo!!! 😰lol! Hmmmm... 🤔🤔🤔🤔 need to find a new book to read that I think would be in this 🤞🏻 5y
AsYouWish Since there are two hangman puzzles, do I submit my books on both or just pick one or the other to guess on? 5y
BeansPage @AsYouWish oh I'm sorry, you can submit the books that you've read to both hangman games until the puzzles are solved. 😊 5y
AsYouWish Awesome!!! Thanks!!! I just wanted to make sure I did it correctly, didn‘t want to ruin the fun for others. 5y

The game begins on September 1st!

How the game is played:
Every member of the group can suggest a letter. In order to suggest a letter you must have read a book within the month of September that begins with the letter you are guessing. For example: In order to guess the letter H you must have read The Hobbit.

This game will announce our buddy read for the month of October. 🎃

Repost for @TheReadingMermaid :
We start September 1st! Guess our #BuddyRead for October! The game is played like this: in order to guess a letter you have to first read a book that begins with the letter that you are guessing. so in order to guess the letter T you would have had to have read a book beginning with the letter T and so on.

I just cannot wait you guys I am so excited!!! 😃

I was thrilled to find out that Louise Penny wrote a novella for the Three Pines series. Novellas are my “go to” length for readathons and it was available from my library so it feels like kismet! 👌🏻 About to start Book #4 for #readathon!

A print book would've tipped me off to the fact that this is a novella. I had no idea when it downloaded that is was less than 100 pages. That aside, this would serve well as a sample or an introduction to Louise Penny's writing for someone unsure about making a commitment to the series.

I'm a couple days late with my #aprilreads but it's all good. I'd say my favorite read from #april was The Hangman. I love me some #gamache. I'm noticing that with summer approaching I'm starting to read more #mystery. I seem to do that every year. I don't know why but I LOVE it :)
