And When She Was Good | 
pickI‘m a big Laura Lippman fan, and this 2012 novel is a great read. A twisting mystery with high end prostitution at its center. The characters are interesting and complicated. I found the arc of Helen‘s life, as she became Heloise, entirely believable and I rooted for her success. Unfortunately:
“No one is safe in this world. This best we can do is create an illusion of safety for your children as long as possible” (p. 310)
Spent the morning visiting the epic used bookstore, Book Barn, for the first time! Only wandered through 2 of the 4 locations; it was enough for one day.
Picked up a couple $1 Karin Slaughters and the two Laura Lippmans pictured here. #bookhaul
I may just get this whole book read today. It's a good one! #lauralippman #andwhenshewasgood #lazysunday #dogsoflitsy
so-soHad a bus ride today, so I finished this book, which is what I had started before the hike. I felt okay about it, it was interesting enough that I felt compelled to keep reading but I don't know that I ended up loving it. It was entertaining, so full marks for that. (The picture is of Glacier Grey, the third biggest in the world! We saw that the last day of the W trek)
Library book sales today in both my little town and the next town south of me. Because, you know, #youcanneverhavetoomanybooks ! And the BBE offered to take me to both (and he's a non-reader). $11 total - not too shabby!
Sometimes Twitter can be so cool!!! Had a "conversation" yesterday with Laura Lippman about this book. I find it interesting that she considers it "VERY divisive" as it's one of very few titles that my coworkers and I actually agree on. Did you read it? What did YOU think?
