This is the 7th Pendergast book and the conclusion of the Diogenes trilogy. It is very good and very fast paced. Also Constance is a bad ass 🧡

Visit to the San Antonio Museum of Art today and felt compelled to take a photo of one of the earliest “books.”

I'm loving this series, but I don't understand why anyone is still choosing to work at the museum (especially at night). 😒

Skyrimir I love these books and will forever be disappointed by the movie that was made that completely got rid of Pendergast. 3y
Traci1 @Skyrimir it has been a long time since I'd seen it, and I couldn't remember who played Pendergast, so I looked it up. Then I realized why I couldn't remember, cause they left him out, which was nuts. 3y

Book #7 in the agent Pendergast series. This finished a trilogy and the reader gets to learn a lot about the private Pendergast in this one. I enjoyed this and a lot of loose ends were tied up quite nicely (although not all...).

This was a pretty good book that filled a slot of #SpooktoberBingo this month for containing Dead in the title. I really enjoyed this book and would have enjoyed it more if I had read more Pendergast novels first. But it was excellent! Except the end. I cant handle these cliche endings. If one more book ends with some variation of I love you, I'm pregnant, or it was all a dream, I might lose it

Spatter. Blood spatter. This is why, as a Criminal Justice major and hardcore true crime enthusiast, I cant just enjoy thrillers. Its the little things that bother me lol

ReviewsMayVary WHAT!? I swear i thought it was splatter! #LifelongLearning 6y

I wish I had known this was part of a series before diving in, but still, its decent. Just enough backstory to let you dive in. Reading it for #SpooktoberBingo and I dont have many others that could take its place

Mollyanna It is part of a wonderful series. Relic, the first book, is very spooky/creepy and would be a great October read. 6y
jessinikkip Thanks, @Mollyanna ! Ill see if the library has a copy. Thanks to an illness I dont have any extra book money this month to buy them, but Ill check them out if the livrary has them 6y
Mollyanna I would definitely recommend the series. I‘m sure the library will have them. Hope you feel better! 6y

jessinikkip Awesome, thank you! Already starting to, plus I get to use the time to catch up on reading :) 6y
MaleficentBookDragon Relic is one of my favorite books! It is an almost perfect creature feature. Let me know if the library does not have a copy and I'll send you one. 6y
jessinikkip Thanks, @MaleficentBookDragon !! I will be going to the library on my next day off to see :) 6y

Have been off for a while because I finally moved to Egypt. I found a flat and now I'm trying to set up a cozy reading area in my huge living room. After two stressful weeks I can now enjoy reading again.
By the way I'm living around the corner of Cairo's most famous book store for used books, Al-Maadi Used Books. The owner already says "Hi" every time I'm passing by. I will post some photos of it later on.

Why is it, whenever I happen to pick up a book, it's the middle book of a series?

Bookzombie I started this series with book 5 and then went back. The only thing I will say about book 7 is that it's the second book in that what is basically a trilogy within the series. I love this series! 7y
Donna_sBookMinute I've done that too with a different author. Just read them out of sequence. Still have one more to go. Oh well . . . 😔 7y
