Harry was defensive about some of the methods he had used to get his stories. At one point, he turned on the reader, who he imagined censuring him for how he had obtained the Christie exclusive: 'Sit down there, you, that man in the back row, he admonished. 'I'll have no hypocritical comment! How many murderers' stories have you read, sir, in the Sunday papers? If you've never read one, then I'll listen to you. If you have read one, then shut up!

pickI found this for $8 at Indigo years ago and had zero expectations. The cover was eerie and drew me in. Maltman paints an emotional image of small town rural life, struck by tragedy. A father trying to understand his son‘s actions. A pastor‘s wife trying to find her place. A town guided by traditions and keeping secrets. Mixing in folklore and Norse Mythology, Maltman creates a tense story interwoven with mystery and beauty.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickI‘ve put off reading this book for years. This copy was given to me by someone who said she buys this book at secondhand stores whenever she sees it and hands it out to people to read. I couldn‘t say no upon hearing that. I‘m glad I finally read it as distressing as the murder at the beginning is. It‘s really a book about grief and families. A really good read.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
This was a fun, fast paced YA mystery read full of twists and turns.😄
I‘m trying something new by making a summer reads pile! So these are my picks for June and July. Will this work out? Probably not… but these are the books that I‘ve been itching to pick up and for some reason never do. So once I finish my current read, I‘ll be picking away at this!
First up is the tagged book: Little Wolves
Birthday hall plus the tagged book which just so happened to arrive on my birthday from the Harvard first editions signed book subscription. My daughter and I are playing hooky from school and work to spa, eat fancy foods, and read 🥳
pick#WomensPrizeNF It‘s obvious Summerscale has done the research and thoroughly explored all aspects of the case, including the time period. Apparently a notorious case in England, these murders of women in the 1950s illuminate the hardships for women and the misogyny that permeated society. The trial and aftermath of the case are explored, and I kept feeling like this took place way longer ago than just the 50s because things have changed so much.
pickA cute mystery with a touch of romance. Not amazing, but an easy quick read. 3.5⭐️
