pickFirstly, this was very jarring to read bc of the current state of the world. Secondly, this felt almost like a different series. Penny should‘ve started a new series if this is the turn she wanted to take it. After I was done with it I was like “huh that was interesting/different”. Still a 4 star read but idk where the series can go from here given the direction it‘s been taking.

so-soI should have reread Grey Wolf before starting this one. Obviously, it is part of a long series, but it is a continuation of the international conspiracy introduced in that book. There were so many details I‘d forgotten. The plot does seem a bit convoluted, regardless. She set other books outside of Three Pines, but I never missed it in the same way I did this time. I will always read her next book in this series, but this one wasn‘t my favorite.
So good to be back with Chief Inspector Gamache!
(But does his world filled with sinister, hidden corruption in government HAVE to mirror ours so closely, Louise Penny? 😅 At least she lets him see the hope there, too.💗)
@dabbe - Thank you for my birthday giftcard! I used it to get Louise Penney's new book and I can't wait to start. Litsy friends are the best friends !♡♡♡
Look what I got!🌲🌲🌲
Attended this tonight- as usual, fantastic, thought provoking interview. Great audience questions as well. Much to mull over. My book will be in the mail tomorrow from B & N. Excited to journey again with Gamache soon! Book #20 in the series.
