Reading this for HRCYED subgenres prompt and I'm not sure I can weather the sexist writing to enjoy the story.

"She was a blonde woman of a few more years than thirty. Her facial prettiness was perhaps five years past its best moment."

Feminist rage piqued.

BekaReid I just recently read this and could barely push through it. 6m
RaeLovesToRead @BekaReid Does the story at least get better??! 5m

Tried to post this last night but I couldn‘t get on Litsy for some reason. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thanks @dabbe for the tag! I‘m not much of a horror reader so I‘m not surprised at my score. 😂
3 faves: Frankenstein (always!), Gone Girl, Rebecca

Tombland | C. J. Sansom

The last book in the crime series with Shardlake.

It‘s 1549 and Shardlake is sent to Norwich by Lady Elizabeth to help a distant relative of hers that‘s accused of murdering his wife. So off Shardlake and Nick are to find out what happened.

To be honest, what I remembered from my first reading was the middle part where Shardlake, Nick and Barak are at a camp. I didn‘t remember how they got there and what happened after.

AnneCecilie So apparently the middle part made an impression on me. I‘ll put some more spoilery thoughts under spoiler #ShardlakeBR @dabbe (edited) 3h
AnneCecilie With the ending I feel that Sansom in a way is telling us that the trio continues to solve cases. I also wished better for Josephine and I‘m glad that Shardlake is taking care of her daughter. 3h
