Welcome to Litsy!

Bk2 of May is done! I‘m both happy to have finished a book but heartbroken that there will never be another DCI Banks novel. And the ending seemed very abrupt, like he was still writing it when he died, or was on the final draft. Don‘t get me wrong, it was a brilliant story set in two time periods, but it seemed like there should‘ve been another chapter at least! And I‘ll never get Annie‘s ending story or Winsomes or Banks!🥲 #SeriesLove2024

1. Counting Sappho, though I've read a few poems, not everything.
2. As many as the author can write will. With ongoing series, it seems like eventually there's isn't anything new & fresh.
3. Faye Kellerman's Decker/Lazarus series & Peter Robinson's Inspector Banks series. I'm saving the last ones in these series.

This book goes back & forth between the past & the present. In the past, November 1980, Nick Hornsby is wondering about the death of Alice Poole. Her body has been found in the park and people are wondering if she was murdered by Yorkshire Murderer. In 2019, a skeleton is discovered at an archeological dig near Eastvale, so DCI Alan Banks is called to investigate.

I‘ve had some more #BookMail in the last few weeks so thought I‘d catch you up! The 1st is the last ever DI Banks novel by the late and lamented Peter Robinson. The 28th book in the series, this is a dual timeline story. 1980, student Nick Hartley comes home to find police searching his flat after his ex girlfriend is murdered & her new boyfriend is missing. 2019, a body is unearthed at a Roman dig that‘s a lot more recent & Banks is called in.

Trying to read the last ever DI Banks novel by the late Peter Robinson as my 1st #EasterOMC & #AwesomeApril #readathon book, but Miss Ruby Tuesday decides she wants all my attention instead. Boxers are so needy! #DogsofLitsy #PetsofLitsy It‘s also No4 of the #photochallenge for the readathon too! #litsypets
