Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks How is this one? 6d
Karisimo @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks it‘s a slow murder mystery set in post WWII Minnesota. My book club of mostly women thought it would be more appreciated by male readers. Most of our discussion focused on the characters. I liked it fine, but wasn‘t wowed! (edited) 6d
Eggs Great choice 👏🏻👏🏻 6d

A well written small town saga that takes place in the 1958. The town is small enough everybody knows everyone, big enough to have a lot of dark secrets. Murder mystery filled with memorable characters doing what they need to do to get by , nice layers of intrigue. Enjoyed it very much

DHill I really enjoyed this one as well. 1mo

Not my first WKK book and likely won't be my last but I do think editing wasn't a priority for this, and as a reader of history, and random knowledge that sticks in my head some parts of the story simply don't work for a 1958 setting. For me, that overshadowed the story and consumed my thoughts, unfortunately. This book gave me Beartown (Backman) & The Lost Man (Harper) vibes but in an American setting instead of Sweden & Australia respectively.
