Murder 101 | Maggie Barbieri

bailed

Of course, the framed college teacher has to solve the murder, because the NYPD detectives can't find their own arses with a map. ???

I'm still wondering, though, what kind of course a biochemistry lecturer and a "Joyce scholar"/English Literature lecturer teach together. Just doesn't make sense.

Hooked_on_books The old “the police are incompetent so this random person with no investigative knowledge has to solve the murder” usually doesn‘t work for me at all. Police can of course be incompetent, but the hubris of a person to appoint themselves detective is usually dumb. 11mo

julesG @Hooked_on_books It worked for Miss Marple, and that's practically the only one that I enjoyed. 11mo

#12BooksOf2022 @Andrew65 - March
I remember listening to this audio straight through in a day. It‘s the story of Pru & Spence - their courtship & marriage and then the rhythms and beats of life. A quiet heartfelt novel that left me in tears. This probably should have made my #Top22Of22

Andrew65 Sounds brilliant. Stacked. 1y

A beautiful story about a quotidian experience that is painful but happening every day.

I won‘t pretend this book is anything original or earth shattering BUT I LOVED it 🥰 #AllTheFeels for the NYC setting and the courtship & marriage of Pru & Spence. This story felt personal and believable and I found myself tearing up by the end.

Like manna from heaven this book dropped into my life bringing me joy & contentment. Im LOVING this story of a family facing life changes. I don‘t know the author personally but he went to HS with a few of my friends. Audio narration is fantastic. #AudioPacking 🎧 🧳 😃♥️

BkClubCare Whoa! When I first saw this post, I thought I had met this author. But no, only virtually. I had reviewed his book Matrimony on my blog in 2008 (😳?!) and he had left a nice reply. Stacked. 2y

BarbaraBB Have a safe flight Cindy! We‘ll keep I‘m touch ❤️ 2y

Cinfhen Oh wow @BkClubCare 2008! Do you still keep a blog?? Apparently this author is a genuinely nice guy. He was a grade ahead of a few of my friends who went to a small Jewish HS in NYC. Have fun @squirrelbrain can‘t wait to hear how Henry manages!! I‘m sure he‘ll love it. Thanks @BarbaraBB 💕💕💕 2y

BkClubCare @Cinfhen - yes, I have reviewed my books since ~2007 🥴 Caresbooksandpie.com 📚HAVE a GREAT TRIP 2y

Cinfhen Thanks for sharing your link @BkClubCare I read your delicious (😜) pie ratings for the #TOB list 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 2y

Originally got this as an #ARC from #netgalley. It sounded like a book that was right up my alley. Family drama over decades with evolving parent child relationships. I was pretty disappointed. There were some great opportunities here to explore the dynamics of this family but too many side plots and characters and it just didn‘t work for me. nothing really happened, nor did the characters change significantly from start to finish. dull. ⭐️⭐️

I flew through this book in record time. I honestly don‘t know why I found it so good, but I did. It was really just about an ordinary family living a semi-ordinary life. Throw in a little Alzheimer‘s (which really sucks), a bit of family disfunction, and you end up with a wonderful story. It was heartfelt. Thank you, Goodreads, for the ARC!
