Lukewarm pick. Interesting plot but far too much banter, bickering, ruminating, etc. Anyway, it knocks off prompts for a couple reading challenges.
#Booked2019 #nightoriented not just because of the title but also because much of the mischief occurs at night.
#MMD for a book published before I was born. It was probably quite modern at the time...
Cinfhen I love a #DoubleDip 🍦🍦 5y
shanaqui I think Gaudy Night might work significantly better if you've actually read the series leading up to it, or at least Strong Poison and Have His Carcase. It's really not typical of the series in many ways, but relies heavily on the investment in the characters for the emotional part of the plot. 5y
Susanita @shanaqui I was thinking that too as I got further into the book. 5y
shanaqui @Susanita For fans of the series it's the most awesome payoff, but why should you care if you don't know the background, after all! 5y
