The Fury | Alex Michaelides

Another on audio. A quick read fortunately because I really disliked it. Not the main character although he wants me to but the time I spent listening to the same story from different sides. About a murder at a Greek island where seven annoying people have gathered from London to work some things out.
Don‘t bother reading it I‘d say.

TrishB I thought The Silent Patient was very over rated so I haven‘t bothered with any others. 1w
CSeydel I‘ve read two of his books (The Silent Patient, The Maidens) and found them both severely lacking. I can‘t understand how he keeps selling books :/ 1w

CSeydel @TrishB same! I only read The Maidens because my book club picked it and I felt generous. Mistake. It was very weak. 1w
BarbaraBB @CSeydel @TrishB I haven‘t read those and won‘t. Glad you think his books are lacking too. 1w
squirrelbrain I haven‘t read any by this author and now I won‘t! 1w
BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain Good decision. A bit of a waste of time 😀 1w
ChaoticMissAdventures @TrishB @CSeydel @BarbaraBB we need a club! I read his earlier 2 and hated them. The Maidens made me legit angry. I will never pick another up. 7d
BarbaraBB @ChaoticMissAdventures I am a bit angry too! And I wonder why I have missed your warnings and listened to this anyway! 7d
ChaoticMissAdventures @BarbaraBB there are so many terrible authors out there it is hard to keep up. I got fooled 2x by this guy, never again! He has a fan base, we are just not it. Because he is an idiot and we don't stand for that 😂 7d
BarbaraBB @ChaoticMissAdventures The Silent Patient was hyped so much. He must have a lot of fans! 7d
CarolynM I thought The Silent Patient was terrible. No more Michaelides for me 🤣 6d
BarbaraBB @CarolynM I should have known. How can I have missed your opinions on this writer?! 6d
TrishB @ChaoticMissAdventures @CarolynM @CSeydel I felt like everyone loved it at the time so good to hear! 6d
TrishB @squirrelbrain @Suet624 wise decisions! 6d
BarbaraBB @TrishB I thought so too! 6d

The Mystery Writer | Sulari Gentill

I certainly wasn‘t sure what to expect with this novel. It found it to be an interesting and engaging story. Gus, Mac and Theo were the main characters. Gus was an attorney, Mac a PI and Theo was a budding writer. There were many twists and turns, including a trip from Lawrence Kansas to Australia and back. Murders happened and scandals were running rampant. There wasn‘t any time when things stood still. A medium paced tale. 4/5

This started off strong but got so annoying in the second half that I wished they'd all just jump off a cliff.

Another fantastic read from Thomas King! Love this series. It‘s fascinating to me how Thumps is such a careful and deliberate person, yet the mystery is fast-paced and moves in leaps and bounds. Dragged reluctantly into another murder, Thumps is faced with ghosts from his past. It‘s a great mystery, with plenty of questions in the air, and just enough going on to keep you guessing without being frustrating. I‘ll keep on with Thumps for sure.

Wow what a great book! Really keeps you guessing. It was a little slow at the start but then I couldn‘t put the book down.

I‘m enjoying spending time with Thumps DreadfulWater again — it‘s been a while, and I‘d forgotten the dry, sardonic humour. Just a little ways into it, but I foresee a lot of twists and turns…

Another day, another Freida.
I did guess both twists in this, but it was still an entertaining read.

I read only The Mousetrap out of this collection since it's the one I've been meaning to read for some time. Man, what an absolute twisty ride! Really well done and keeps you guessing the entire time. Excellent work by #AgathaChristie #mystery #murder
