Another great edition to the Charlie Parker series. Charlie finds himself yet again in a difficult situation where the darkest aspects of humanity come to the surface as he tries to solve a murder case.

Fair warning, if spiders or bugs creep you out, you might want to avoid this book.

This takes another off my #BookSpinBonanza list too. @TheAromaofBooks

Oh my giddy aunt villain Mr Pudd duly deserves a photo by the pumpkin of doom as one of the creepiest baddies ive met. And apparently book 4 is connected. It's a while since i read book 2 in the Charlie parker series but provided i can stop my legs shaking from tension ill be back for more very soon!
Happy Halloween 🎃 everyone!!

Another 5 ⭐️read from John Connolly. I‘ve never had a big fear of spiders.. but just for now I‘ll be keeping my distance from them. I love MC Charlie Parker‘s humanity... he feels so real to me. Looking forward to book 4 in this series.....

TrishB They‘re great aren‘t they 👍🏻 6y

#WinterWonderland #AngelOfHarlem I‘m thinking of #Angel & Louis , characters from the Charlie Parker series ....
“Their gray morality , tempered by expediency, was closer to goodness than most people‘s virtue “
LOVE theses characters ♥️

Cinfhen You and @TrishB were sharing some mental telepathy 😍 6y
Cathythoughts @Cinfhen I know ! What a laugh ... these characters are really brilliant ♥️👍🏻 6y
TrishB How brilliant 💕❤️ on the same track today! They‘re excellent aren‘t they. 6y

Currently reading , finally , settled in a book. I‘ve started a few books over the last couple of days .... but they weren‘t for me. So , when in doubt , at least I know where to go now ... John Connelly ! Has never let me down, book 3. ♥️♥️♥️

SandyW I feel that way about Michael Connelly, especially his Harry Bosch series. I binged all his books about 5 summers ago, and get his new release every year. 6y
Cathythoughts @SandyW I‘ve read up to only 4 in the Bosch series .... but I really love him ... I miss him , must get back there ♥️♥️♥️ 6y
TrishB I love both of those series, up to date with Bosch and I think I‘m on 4 or 5 with Parker - need to check! I‘m reading a Silva now for a comfort read too 😘 6y
andrew61 I've got this one ready to go, maybe over Christmas - look forward to your comments, definitely a favourite new author to me this year 6y

Top book is a total #blameitonlitsy purchase, & @DeborahSmall in particular! I still haven't read book 2, but when book 3 is in a clearance sale for £2.99 you have to buy it, don't you?!

Hawksmoor has been on my #tbr radar FOR-E-VER, so I'm pleased I've finally got that. The historical bits shouldn't be too hard for me as my degree is in this period-ish.

DeborahSmall Both fantastic books. I love Hawksmoor! And the killing kind is great. I might have a paperback of dark hollow if you want to get on to book 2? Xx 7y
jenniferw88 @DeborahSmall many thanks for your kind offer, but i got books 1 & 2 for Christmas last year! 😊 7y

Number 3 in the series and still loving them 👍🏻
If you don‘t like spiders you will cringe a lot with this one.
Great cliff hanger finish!

arlenefinnigan I'm gonna give it a miss, I struggled with the spiders in The Hobbit 😱 7y

This months stats. I like this stats idea, I'm super competitive with myself and it's nice to have a little glance back at the month past!

Utterly spectacular. The emotions that his writing evokes are amazing. I've spent the last two hours glued to my book, and so tense that my muscles are aching and I've had to consciously relax my jaw it's so clenched! I am hugely surprised to find myself in my bedroom in Dublin and not in Maine.

Book_Gnome Amazing writer. I wish more people read him! 8y

I just love Angel and Louis- the thief and hired killer. The couple that dreams are made of😍

AnnaDesourdy I am so intrigued because of your posts – if I didn't have so many books on my TBR already I would definitely have to take the time to devour this masterpiece 😳 8y
Ais Oh DEFINITELY do it! This is actually book 3 in the Charlie Parker series, book 1 is Every Dead thing where you get to know the character, his motivation etc. Really important to read them in order:) you won't be sorry to add them to your already heaving TBR pile, I PROMISE! 8y

Book #3 in the Charlie Parker series. Without a doubt, the best detective series I've ever read (so far, I know I'm only on No.3😊). John Connolly's writing is just superb.
