Welcome to Litsy!

In The Hate U Give, we hear the same old #CopSong and Dance after the shooting of an African-American teenager.

Catching up on #MusicalNewYear

The only #copsong book I have in my collection. I love them but normally check them out of the library.

Javert is one determined cop!

Other news is PBS is will showing the non-musical version of Les Miserables this April!

Part #copsong, part apocalypse tale. "What's the point in solving murders if we're all gonna die soon anyway?" A fascinating and alarming question. (Still tbr, but I've heard good things!)

#CopSong is a tough hashtag since I don‘t read that many crime novels. However, I did fall into the hype of The Woman in the Window last year, so there is at least one crime novel on my shelf. Admittedly, not my favourite.

#copsong has me thinking about this amazingly morbid book I found on #bookoutlet!! Back in the nineteenth and early twentieth century NYC cops used to dispose of crime scene photos in the Hudson River when they were no longer needed. These photos were forgotten in an old building, lucky for us!, and therefore survived to be published in this book 🔪

Lieutenant Eve Dallas with the NYPSD is on the trail of a sniper who has just killed three people at Central Park‘s ice skating rink. #copsong #musicalnewyear

I pretty much bought this book for the endpapers, but it turned out to be really good. 😂

The Atlanta Police Department has just added their first black police officers to the force, but segregation is still rampant, even within the force, and police corruption is a problem.

#MusicalNewYear #day13 #CopSong My favourite literary cop is definitely Will Trent. He‘s flawed with a horrible backstory, but he‘s very much the nice guy, to his detriment where his nuts ex wife is concerned. When he falls in love with Dr Sara Linton, Angie goes on a psychotic stalker rampage & even then Will tries to work things out peacefully before finally seeing her as the bitch queen she is. He‘s also the nice guy to his GBI partner Faith.
