Hope to Die | David Jackson
Pickpick

This was certainly a page-turner, easy to read, but it had some really gory details (I nearly went YEARGH out loud on the bus at one point). I called an element of the solution fairly quickly, just didn't identify the exact culprit until later on. The dialogue between Cody and Megan felt a bit stagey for my liking, but I could have been overly picky about everything after reading Babel.

TrishB @Reggie the author works at my university too, but I‘ve yet to meet him! 3y

You know the best part of coming to a series late? No waiting when the book ends on a cliffhanger! Moving immediately on to book 3 as this has quickly become one of my favorite series. Also thrilled to discover that there is in fact a book 4 already. I had thought there were only 3. #SeriesReads

vivastory Do you by chance remember what was the first in the series? 4y

Great book! This really is a good series.
A fantastic story and lots of humour. Thoroughly enjoyed it and really warmed to Cody in this one. The fact it's set in Liverpool, my hometown is just a bonus but probably why I enjoy them so much 😊

Don't Make a Sound is already reserved at the library and Your Deepest Fear is out in May👍

TrishB Have you tried Luca Veste and Ed Chatterton? Both great crime series set in Liverpool. 5y
suzie.reads @TrishB I've read an Ed Chatterson book but never heard of Luca Veste. 5y
TrishB I think you‘ll probably like them 👍🏻 5y

This has killed me ? "The Asda" ? I don't know whether you'll get it unless you're scouse.
Loving the humour in this book ❤

Library book haul!
Can't wait to start the second Cody thriller set in my hometown 😍
Definitely starting it today as the rest of my planned January reads still haven't arrived 📬

TrishB I love those too! I can‘t remember which one it is - but one bit actually takes place near enough outside my office window. The author is also a lecturer where I work but I‘ve yet to meet him! 5y
suzie.reads @TrishB I love reading books when I can actually say I've been there. The Anglican cathedral is my schools cathedral so we have our year 6 leavers service there. It never fails to impress me. 5y

Brilliant second book in this series 👍🏻 One of the murders literally happened outside my office window - book said - need to go and check what those university staff saw!! Love that these are set in Liverpool 😁

CaseyMoore Ha. That‘s fun. 6y

Who doesn‘t immediately judge by people‘s book shelves 😁

Bookwomble Mrs Bookwomble really enjoyed the first book in the series, and ordered this one from the library as soon as she'd finished it. She loved this one too and asked me to pass on to you her thanks for the recommendation 😊 6y

TrishB @Bookwomble 😁 it‘s a good series! I have number 3 ready too. All the best ingredients of detective series. 6y
TrishB @Kalalalatja @Oryx nothing better than having a nosey at someone else‘s bookcases! 6y
Bookwomble I'm sure she'll have ordered that one in, too 😊 6y
KristinaRay I do this wherever I go without thinking. I‘m usually apologizing for it at some point. 6y
TrishB @KristinaRay 👍🏻😁 6y
