The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club: Lord Peter Wimsey Mystery | Dorothy L Sayers

pick

Book 4 in the Lord Peter Wimsey series. The first half sets up the pieces (a little bit slowly), but the last quarter really hurtles along as Wimsey solves the mystery.
Picked this up for #roll100 but it also fits #52books23 for the #aboutaninheritance prompt.

batsy I enjoyed this one! Love the edition you have. I have a very worn edition of Gaudy Night in that edition 🙂 2y

Smarkies @batsy I tried to get second hand copies of all my peter wimsey series. Unfortunately I think only this one is in this edition. 2y

I think this was on the #ToB23 longlist - it‘s less than 5 hours and I‘m more than half way through. It‘s ok. Three adult siblings and their families gather together for their first Christmas after the death of their beloved mom, grandmother. As each sibling is dealing with grief and resentment the next few days are not going to be cheery & merry. #52Books23 #AboutAnInheritance

BarbaraBB It was on the longlist and I really want to read it! 2y

squirrelbrain I agree @BarbaraBB - I really wanted to read this (I can get it on Scribd audio), but you‘re making me think it‘s not ‘all that‘, Cindy! 🤔 2y

Librarybelle Lovely flowers! 2y

Cinfhen Thanks @Librarybelle i didn‘t not like this one @Megabooks @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain but for a short novel it felt repetitive and I was never able to really distinguish one character from the other. For me it was #MoreMehThanYeah 2y

This book poignantly captured the dynamics of family and adult siblings more than anything I‘ve read in awhile. I really enjoyed the threads of the story and how she wove them together. It felt authentic and not romanticized. I‘d like to have seen this one on the shortlist I think. #ToB2023
