"L" is for Lawless
"L" is for Lawless | Sue Grafton
30 posts | 53 read | 6 to read
Kinsey's skills are about to be sorely tested. She is about to meet her duplicitous match in a couple of world-class prevaricators who quite literally take her for the ride of her life. "L" Is for Lawless: Call it Kinsey Millhone in bad company. Call it a mystery without a murder, a treasure hunt without a map, a quest novel with truly mixed-up motives. Call it the return of Kinsey as bad girl-- quick-witted and quicksilvery, smart-mouthed and smart-alecky-- poking her nose into everyone's dirty laundry as she joins up with a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde in an Our Gang comedy that will take her halfway across the country and leave her with a major headache and an empty bank balance. America's favorite borderline delinquent is back with her one-liners on tap and her energy level on high, romping through her fastest and funniest adventure in this, her twelfth foray into the alphabet of crime.

I read all but the last chapter and then listened to the last one because … well my eyes. I always always love Kinsey ❤️❤️❤️

Listened through the next four Kinsey Millhone books. (Work has been such a sedentary beast recently that audiobooks have been my go to to get me off my arse.) I liked all four of these, but I particularly enjoyed the send up to Elmore Leonard in the tagged book. I‘m almost surprised that Raylan Givens didn‘t swoop in at the end 😂

jewright I was sad when I finished this series last year. 2y
Ericalambbrown @jewright I‘m kinda expecting to feel the same when I finish listening. 🥺 2y

I am already enjoying this one (the green light is from my “migraine“ bulbs). The book has both L and M which is great because then I will jump onto M right away! The only bad thing is it's too cumbersome to tote around.

A Kinsey Milhone book always gets a 5-star rating from me!

In “L”, Kinsey looks into a deceased person‘s background as a favor for a neighbor. Of course nothing is what it seems. She then goes on a cross-country madcap adventure. This one felt more like a cozy mystery than the earlier ones in the series. I only recall the pregnant woman in this one — perhaps because I received this for Xmas 1995 when I had a newborn.

Also L is the last of the colorful covers. Starting with M, they all went minimalist.

ValerieAndBooks Also just noticed with M, they also stopped using quotation marks around the letters. 4y

Another great installment of the alphabet series. Kinsey agrees to help a friend of a friend‘s family acquiring military death benefits. In true Grafton form, the story spirals and Kinsey travels to Texas and ends up in Kentucky. I loved how Grafton incorporated her hometown of Louisville. #MountTBR

Another fun new approach for a Kinsey mystery. This one was slow to start for me but the end raced along. I particularly enjoyed how Kinsey worked to figure out the clues, it was like a scavenger hunt.

Book 6 for #bookspinbonanza

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y

I saw someone made a post that this book gave them “secondhand anxiety”, and I have to agree! Kinsey was extremely uncomfortable for much of this book, and it left me feeling on-edge and agitated as well. Most of the new characters were very unlikeable, but interesting. (I did like the elderly woman that was added to the cast during the last few chapters. She was a hoot.) 🌟🌟🌟1/2 out of 5.

📚My parents. My mom, especially, is an avid reader. Both my mom and dad read to me when I was young, and encouraged my love of books.
📚Any chance I get! Usually that chance is in bed before I go to sleep.
📚So many, but the March sisters have been a lifelong favorite.

Oh, how I love Sundays. Realized I have a First Edition of this book, which made my book nerd heart all happy...it‘s the second first edition I have in this series. I got them for 50 cents at a library book sale 5 or so years ago and never even checked. I literally remember nothing about this one, so it‘s a surprise going in. #atoyreread #lazysunday

MiyakoBunny Do you have any signed books by her? 7y

MiyakoBunny I noticed you were a fan and I saw a signed copy of one of her books at a local store in my neighborhood I thought maybe I‘d see if I could purchase it for you ☺️ 7y

I had some time between medical appointments, so I went to BAM and then got lunch of #pasta and eggplant parmigiana. This is probably my least favorite of the series, but it does put me one book closer to the complete set.

This story line is giving me secondhand anxiety. I don't know that I'll be able to sleep until I have some sort of resolution.
