A Routine Infidelity | 
so-soAn Australian cozy crime type story set on the streets of Melbourne‘s inner north and featuring a youngish female PI with a big family and an emotionally complicated backstory. It‘s an OK central mystery, but overall a bit over complicated with subplots. I enjoyed the local references but, I don‘t know, it was all a bit meh🫤 #Ozfiction #52BookClub #RelatedToTheWordMurder

squirrelbrain I love books that are ‘local‘ to home, but it sounds like you won‘t be reading any more in this series…🤔 2y
Cinfhen Sometimes I really appreciate when my books keep it simple 2y

CarolynM @Librarybelle Yes, but this story doesn‘t have such a strong central character, nor the interest in the setting. I think she was trying to drum it up by the backstory & by tying it closely to real streets & suburbs, but I think you need a bit more than that to get real colour into your characters & setting. 2y
CarolynM @squirrelbrain No, I really don‘t think I‘ll need to read any more of these. 2y
Librarybelle Agreed! 2y
