This is my cozy fall read for September I loved the tv series and thought that I would check out the book series
pickI love Midsomer Murders and have been dying (no pun intended) to read the book series upon which the TV show is based. It was with great delight that I found them on Audible. This first in the series introduces the reader to DCI Barnaby, who is a bit more taciturn in print than he is on the show. The overall atmosphere is a bit darker than the show, but it works perfectly well. The voice narrator is wonderful, inflecting Barnaby‘s thoughts ⬇️⬇️⬇️
pickBook 79/2022 finished 9/4/22 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Audiobook - Midsomer Murders

1) Don't make me choose between Poirot (as played by David Suchet) and Inspector Barnaby (as played by John Nettles). Both are firm favourites 💕
2) Fortunately, I'm REALLY BAD at working out whodunit. I love to try to figure it out, but the fun is in being surprised..
3) A new one? Any recommendations, fellow mystery-lovers?
pickBk3 of June & Bk1 of #14Books14Weeks2021 is done! The 1st in the Mudsomer Murders cosy crime series was very much darker than I was expecting really. Which was awesome. Some of the characters are so different than the tv show, which honestly I should‘ve expected. It‘s well written, engaging & highly enjoyable with a bit of a shocking ending. Which is everything you want in a crime novel. Loved it. #SeriesRead2021 #StackingTheSeries 👇
Currently very much enjoying the 1st book in the Midsomer Murders cozy crime series. I‘m actually surprised by how dark it is, the tv show always seemed a bit fluffy to me. Will definitely be tracking down the rest in the series. How‘s your Saturday night looking where you are?
pickI‘m a big Midsommer Murders fan. I‘ve binged all 20 seasons twice. I only found out recently that the series was based on books, so I thought I‘d check them out. This is the first book, and I liked it. The book allows more in-depth background information on the characters. Sgt Troy is kind of a jerk in the book, but I love him in the show.
pickI have a new series to enjoy! This was published in the late 80s and is the first book introducing Inspector Barnaby. The Midsomer Murders tv show was based on this series. I heard about it when my #lmpbc group was discussing possible titles, and since we didn‘t choose this I found it at the library. I liked it a lot! The writing style, the characters, etc. I think there are 6 other books so that‘s exciting! 😁
I found a new (to me) mystery series! I‘ve seen the television series, but the book is ever so ineffably! better 📚💙📚❤️📚💚📚🧡📚💗📚💜📚💛
pickQuite a fun, tightly plotted mystery to kick off the Inspector Barnaby series - and very little was done to the plot of the book in the adaption to the TV pilot except to bring it up to the mid-90s from the original late 80s setting. I quite like Barnaby in the books, though perhaps not as much as John Nettles‘s performance of the character in the show. I definitely prefer Troy on the show than in the book, he‘s pretty awful in the book.
It‘s snowing. Again. So furniture rehab and Midsomer Murders, it is. Glad my guy doesn‘t mind craftiness in the living room. 😂 AND he built me a warm fire.
@EvieBee84 I'm working on your list, and have a couple of questions!
Do you want mystery series only, or is drama okay too?
A period setting? Or is modern okay?
Are there any things you don't like in a show?
I think that's all I have for now...
Everybody keeps talking about how George R.R. Martin or Erikson obviously wrote this year so we should let J.K. Rowling write 2017. I think Caroline Graham should write next year. She only kills off bastards, assholes and the very deserving. Or the people behind "see Spot run." books should do it. Unless their first book off the presses is "see Spot get hit by a car after eating 17 pounds of chocolate and tainted fish."
pick1st book with Inspector Barnaby. This is the series Midsomer Murders is based from. I have never read such a wickedly funny mystery novel. Caroline has a decidedly awesome way of describing scenes/characters/dialogue. Not a huge mystery buff but her stuff I couldn't put down.
