Happy 😊 pancakes 🥞 day from the uk 🇬🇧 ☺️mollie moo and I with library 📚 pre orders - I‘m finding the peepshow fascinating 🧐 I wouldn‘t say I‘m enjoying it as the theme/ topic is just so terribly sad 😔 the casual misogyny and racism is making my blood 🩸 boil who the hell would want to live in the 50s let‘s pray 🙏 Wer not moving back towards these despicable attitudes
pickThis was cheap on kindle so ended up buying it for #wpnf25. I found the writing really engaging. The way the subject matter was written about through a social commentary lens, aswell as the bits about the newspaper journalist Harry Procter, was done so well. You really get a sense of the time and place. There is no concrete conclusion when it comes to the murders & motives etc but the author has clearly done her research with this book.
pickI wasn‘t really surpassed to find out just how much of Catherine Read Arnold Williams‘s 19th century book was. It was really obvious from the beginning. I loved that Kate Winkler Dawson brought in a document examiner. It was interesting to see the weird and random ties to the Borden family (and just how messed up that family apparently was - think Lizzy Borden and her alleged ax).

I‘ve loved all this authors previous books, let‘s hope this one doesn‘t disappoint!
so-soCan‘t decide how I feel about this one. It‘s got to be frustrating to not be able to get justice for such a heinous crime. But the author‘s writing style annoyed me at times. And the audiobook reader had a lisp (have never experienced that before), so that was distracting to me.
pickAnother good book by Erik Larson. When you read one of his books, you are sure to learn a lot. He researches his books like no one else does. Thunderstruck is about a murder, not long after the Whitechapel murders, and the man who invented wireless communication. Larson tells parallel stories of each man until the end when they cross.
😊 Happy Reading 😊
