Deception on His Mind | 
Particularly considering how long ago this was written, 1997, really good job on race relations, confusions, and misunderstandings.

pickI really enjoy an Elizabeth George mystery, that said this one was a bit of a slow build for me. Ultimately though I enjoyed the journey and look forward to reading the next book in this series. Perhaps Barbara will find some love...
pickI love this series! Most of the books in the series are over 600 pages; daunting at first, but the payout is so worth it. The way George crafts her characters, their motives and the interweaving personal plots, is so expert. In this book, she touches on the sensitive topic of prejudice against the Pakistani community in Essex. So well written. So far so good, as I‘ve been reading one per month. I plan to get through the series soon. 🚨🚨🚨🚨
Good morning! Having cold pizza and tea for breakfast. That grosses most people out, but I have this thing about not reheating leftover pizza. Is that weird?!?

Oh Barbara! You dear, cruel little thing. I just love her. She always makes me laugh!
Just started book 9 in the Inspector Lynley series tonight, and love when there are maps! Already in the preface, a body is discovered here.

I am usually pretty fond of the Inspector Lynley mysteries, but the author's depiction of the Pakistani family strikes me as very problematic and stereotypical. Although she also includes a main character and (I think) romantic interest who is Pakistani and more well-rounded, the descriptions are uncomfortable.
