When you find an old McGee for 25 cents at your library bookstore and it still has a B.Dalton sticker on it ! Happy!
pickThis book is a twisty thriller. It starts out quite tamely, but, oh, that ending. The Florida heat is a major character in this murdery tale. Beware those with a rigid moral code. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!) Feel free to join in!

pickA look through a narrow, gritty window at a white 1950s city neighborhood decayed by addiction. Each chapter dips into the mind of a different character, all struggling basically with the choice to focus on self or community. This is woven through a propulsive story that simmers with the threat of violence & finally explodes in nightmarish murder.
I live in the PNW, and today I was video chatting with my parents in Florida when they noticed my mug. They brought up the tagged book and how prophetic it became considering the recent turned-up history about the architect who designed the ill fated Surfside. Which then made us wonder if Starbucks will change its design. It didn't occur to me that condos represented Florida.
so-soI managed to squeeze in my April #bookspin, so yay for that! This is definitely not a book I would have attempted to read if not for the fact that it was apparently referenced in Peter Swanson's "Eight Perfect Murders". For me, it didn't really pick up until the last third...but it was fine. My Kindle version had SO many typos though!!

A perfect day to tuck into a local author.
pickInteresting! Not my favorite, but I‘m withholding judgment until I see what it brings to the plot of Eight Perfect Murders (which is why I read this in the first place).
