Passivity. Readers do not like inactive heroes. They want action, proactive, choices. A book where they dither is a slow read. The polyjuice potion seemed to take sooo long to prepare... And don't even start me on Dumbledore's inexplicable silence. Yes yes, the books would be way shorter if he solved all Harry's problems. But still...

#bookisholympics #bookten I decided to go with Vera for my tenth book. Dark Matter was so deep & twisted I thought I good old fashioned murder would be the best palate cleanser!😋 Detective Joe Ashworth & his daughter are on the train when he realizes the woman in the corner isn't breathing. No one saw the murder happen, though the train was full. DI Vera Stanhope goes to quiet Mardle to investigate, but locals are clamming up. #goingforplatinum🏅
