Terribly written and terribly edited, we follow our main protagonist Kathryn as she realises her boyfriend of a couple of months has been dating two other women. From there the Ex Girlfriend Murder Club is formed.

Listening to Kathryn's mother talk in stereotypical broken English was just uncomfortable and very lazy representation.

However it was so stupid, I had fun with it.

ChaoticMissAdventures There is a weird, sliding, scale of bad that once you tip over it the thing becomes kitschy and "good" No one knows how to tell a person where this line is it has to be hit naturally ?. 1mo
Michellesibs @ChaoticMissAdventures I hadn't thought about this before but you are spot on! 1mo

A police procedural set on Nantucket, this book is a must read for mystery buffs. Character driven, the ending‘s revelations shocked me. Triggers: child sexual & physical abuse. #readyourkindle #September

I‘ve never read any of the Maigret books - and they‘ve just reissued a ‘capsule‘ collection with these fantastic covers. Got one to try !

After work journaling & reading. Beautiful afternoon: soft breeze, 73 degrees, bird song, leaves at the tip of turning. Feeling relaxed & content. #75Soft #porchlife #MondayMood #MoodMonday

I have a finish! I'm just not sure what I think of it. For more than half the book we get a LOT of the main detective character exercising, deciding what to eat, describing Nantucket in way too much detail, thinking about his history- with plenty of info about his parents, wife, and sons- and, occasionally, thinking about the case he's been sent to oversee. The bones of a young child have been discovered at a construction site, which they've been

bookandbedandtea able to narrow down as being from the 70s-90s. But there are no reports of missing children from that time period. Several times I nearly quit because nothing seemed to be happening. Then, suddenly, the reader realizes something that reframes the story and some relevant information finally turns up. Now the whole thing has become pretty interesting. Even the sloooow beginning made sense but it was such a slog to get there. Between pick and so-so. 3mo

The first in a new series, I can‘t wait for the second. This novel went to a place I could not foresee. Talk about being blindsided. Detective Tommy Kelly is sent to Nantucket Island to oversee the discovery of a child‘s body. The case is more than cold and there seems to be no chance of solving it when he and the local detective Jo Harris get a series of lucky breaks. This novel will flip you on your head. A great series beginner. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Detective Beans: The Case of the Missing Hat, by Li Chen (2024)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: A plucky kitten solves the greatest mystery of his young detective career: the loss of his favourite fedora.

Review: This is just pure graphic novel cuteness. That is all.

Bookish Pair: Cat‘s Cafe by Gwen Tarpley (2020)
