pick

A Caravaggio painting disappears from the chapel of Doon Abbey in Kildare Ireland. Sister Alice, a novitiate, & Sister Mercy Superior investigate but the suspects and body count are many. I enjoyed this story but the book was written together with Binchy and other writers which caused it to be a bit confusing in parts. Loved all the humorous characters and the ending was surprising. Recommended for those whose love Binchy and humorous Irish tales.

Did this as a buddy read. It was an interesting story, but so all over the place. I had no idea what was going on the whole time and I‘m still a little unsure of why any of it happened. Multiple authors really threw this one off. I think it could have used another 100+ pages of details! I would skip this one.

EadieB I was surprised that she was pregnant. I had thought she was ill or possibly killed. I guess she is not a nun anymore! 5y

TheBookHippie @EadieB 🤣🤣🤣🤣 spitting out coffee ...I guess not... 5y

TheBookHippie Seriously at some point I stopped reading to try to figure it out and just read and laugh at the fact that I had zero clue what was happening ...I too thought she was no more.. 5y

cobwebmoth I don't remember any indication to her age in the first part of the book, so I kept picturing her as older, so yes, the pregnancy took me by surprise. 5y

Crewgurl Very crazy. The weirdest part was who the father was and how it still ends up a happily ever after. 5y

JacqMac Very shocking. I thought she was dead, too. 5y

so-so

This was written by a group of different authors and I think it showed. Didn‘t seem to flow and quite complex with the amount of characters. Although can‘t really say I knew what was going on. It was a fun read however.
