I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join in if you want!

Emmy‘s tail photo bombed this picture. 😹

Gallows court is appropriately set amidst the dark,smokey,soot ridden fog of 1930s London. The novel is a dark, violent,& twisted tale of revenge & retribution for the victims of sexual deviance & corruption in high places. Although most of the characters are repulsive,it is a compulsive read. #marchmadness #readathon

Little did I know that I would be reading amidst London‘s fog approximately 65 years after A Rare Interest in Corpses, a previous read this month. #serieslove #1

This is not really my kind of book, but I read it because I have a galley of the 2nd book in the series.😬

A clever, well-written murder mystery/thriller with a lot going on plot wise and very few characters that are actually likable. It‘s got a few twists I will admit I didn‘t see coming. Definitely going to read the second book!

Oh no! What do I do #LMPBC ? Can I do anything? @suvata @Jadams1776 @Jerdencon @Kangaj1 This is that missing package. The book isn‘t here. I did get The Cater Street Hangman yesterday.

Kangaj1 I am confused...the two I most recently sent were Body in the Library and Cater Street Hangman to you 3y
Kangaj1 That is not my handwriting on the box. 3y
Roary47 @Kangaj1 is the one I sent. They did a return to sender. I did get both of yours. (edited) 3y

Kangaj1 @Roary47 so is it Gallows Court that is missing? If so, no worries. I would love to hear what you all thought of it, though! 3y
Roary47 @Kangaj1 yes, I can replace it. I feel so bad. I liked the story. I thought the faking her own death, hiding in the robotesk structure, and the whole ending was really awesome. I‘m excited to read more in the series. 3y
Kangaj1 @Roary47 It really is ok! I may not read it again, so no need to replace it to give back to me. 3y
Jerdencon Was this the one that was supposed to come to me? If not, no worries… will just pick up with the next one. 3y
suvata Well, I think this is a first. It was bound to happen I am so sorry that happened to one of our books. 3y
Roary47 @Jerdencon yes, this should have been this months read for you that was sent 3 weeks ago. 😭 3y
LibrarianRyan i have had this happen twice. The Second time, the only thing I got back was the post it not with my address that was INSIDE the book. My post note said the machines at it. UGGG 3y
Jadams89 Oh no! The Post Office really doesn‘t like us this round. I found an audiobook of this one, so I‘ll let you know what I think @Kangaj1 3y

Picture as they called me up. Lol (I‘m really laughing too hard about this picture 🤣)This is on its way to you @Jerdencon for the #LMPBC #GroupM. Sorry it‘s running late. 😣

Jerdencon No worries! 3y
Jerdencon @Jadams1776 I‘m late too - your book is going in the mail tomorrow! 3y
Jerdencon Always so much drama with my mail - so annoying! @Roary47 do you have the tracking? It hasn‘t shown up yet 3y
Roary47 Ironically, I haven‘t gotten mine either. I know our post office has been understaffed @Jerdencon I‘ll email you in a moment. 3y

3.5 ✨I finished this before everyone woke up so I could actually finish with it. It is one of those books that you are confused until near the end. I didn‘t really get into it until the end. The writing was witty and very well done. I have trouble with those types of books personally because I have to look up so much. A really good darker mystery. Read for #Lmpbc #WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers @StayCurious

Roary47 It is also my #DoubleBookSpin for December @TheAromaofBooks 😍💛 3y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 3y

Murder mystery set in 1930s London. I enjoyed it to a point but one of the main characters, Rachel Savernake, is difficult to like. I did guess the main twist but there were a couple of other reveals. 3⭐️

This is my November real-life book club choice, & though this one won the unanimous vote, I really wanted to bail on it! The characters are all unlikable; the plot holds only one surprise. The scenes skip around disjointedly which only makes it harder to connect with this book! I thought this sounded fun, but there‘s literally nothing fun at all here! I hate to write a bad review, but hopefully that it will lead to a lively book club discussion!

cathipink Sorry this was a blerg book, but I love your shirt/blanket/fabric behind it 🙂 5y
TorieStorieS @cathipink Thanks!! It‘s a t-shirt! Gotta sport some #bookwear! ☺️ 5y

Clever, creepy, loads of nods to classic crime but more of a thriller/chiller. Not really my sort of book in the end, but I can see what it‘s trying to do and appreciate it even if it‘s not my thing.
