IndoorDame Some jobs (like this one) are clearly sketchy, but whether people walk into them anyway because they‘re too naive to notice or too desperate to pass I think they still deserve justice when they get burned. 11m

The things I do for littens! Seriously the minute I read about the missing thumb I felt nauseous. This is when I would normally DNF (I know the clue was in the title) But I‘m glad I pushed on. It‘s definitely one I will remember.

IndoorDame I liked how out there it looked at first, and then how reasonable it all was when it was explained. Covering up a major counterfeiting operation is one of the soundest motives for murder we‘ve seen yet, and it definitely explains the police jumping in with no evidence and all the rest. 3m

The Word Is Murder | Anthony Horowitz

Pickpick

A writer, Horowitz, is asked by an ex-detective,Hawthorne, to write about him and his case. Horowitz agrees. The case, a woman who just planned her funeral is murdered. Her son is a famous actor, she has a crime from her past where some feel justice wasn't served. And Horowitz can't get a handle on Hawthorne. Overall, good read. Will continue the #SeriesLove2024 . #AwesomeApril first book finished.
Make a great day everyone 😊

I liked this book. You can see the glimmers of the man Cork will become and the forces that shaped him into that man. I couldn‘t understand though why it took so long for Cork‘s father, Liam, to question a particular suspect who seemed obvious to me from pretty early on. #audiowalk

Suet624 I‘ve asked you this before but how long did it take to do that walk? 1h

This was written in 1975! 😱 How can you not love a late-Victorian-self-sufficient-no-nonsense-badass female archaeologist protagonist who travels to Egypt in search of antiquarian objects and the freedom to do as she pleases? Throw in some worthy sidekicks and adversaries as well as a mummy-run-amok, and you have one heckuva fun historical detective read. I see more Amelia Peabody in my future.

CatLass007 I‘m so glad you enjoyed it! I see more of Amelia Peabody in my future as well. 14h

CatLass007 I don‘t know if you listen to audiobooks but the first dozen books of the series are free on Audible. I think free things are wonderful.😀 14h

Sace @CatLass007 who is the narrator? Hoopla had two different narrators and I went with the one read by Barbara Rosenblat and she is incredible! I read the book almost 20 years ago and can‘t remember a thing about it but I am sure to remember this audio! 14h
dabbe @CatLass007 I tried audio a while back and had a hard time with it. Maybe I should give it another go. Thanks for the info! 🤗 14h
CatLass007 @Sace Barbara Rosenblatt is the narrator of the book a houseguest and I are listening to. We‘re almost finished. 14h
CatLass007 Audiobooks are not for everyone. I‘ve been reading for most of my life but I only started listening to audiobooks in December 2011. I was crocheting more than I ever had in my life but I wanted something to occupy my mind the way crochet occupied my hands. 14h
Sace @CatLass007 I love to audio craft as well. I have to be doing something when I listen to audiobooks. Usually I‘m cleaning, going for a walk or crocheting. In fact, I have a cardigan I need to work on. 14h
Sace @dabbe I would highly recommend the Rosenblatt. I also listen on 1.30 speed. Normal speed audiobooks feel way too slow to me. 14h
CatLass007 @Sace I have to experiment with the speed every time I start a new book. I‘ve even slowed down some books, which I think is not because the narrator is talking too fast but because of some engineering issue. 13h
kspenmoll Thanks! @CatLass007 for the info about free audible books in this series. I plan to start listening to the first in series this weekend. I usually listen while making a meal, doing dishes, walking. 13h
CatLass007 @kspenmoll Audiocrafting, audiocleaning, audiowalking, whatever works.😀 13h
