Blue Hour
Blue Hour | Paula Hawkins
6 posts | 3 read | 2 reading | 4 to read
A stylish and immersive new novel of ambition, legacy, and betrayal from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Girl on the Train."The best Paula Hawkins yet -- by a tense and haunting mile." -- Lee ChildAn isolated Scottish island, accessible to the mainland only twelve hours a day. An infamous artist whose notoriously unfaithful husband disappeared after visiting her twenty years ago. A present-day discovery that intimately connects three people and threatens a carefully concealed secret. A masterful and propulsive novel that asks searing questions of ambition, power, gender and perception, The Blue Hour recalls the very best of Shirley Jackson and Patricia Highsmith and cements Hawkins's place among the very best of our most nuanced, powerful and stylish storytellers.

1. a) Rain, sofa, blanket, cat, decaf, quiet house. b) Audiobook, bone-conduction headphones, and a long walk already mapped out (with bathrooms along the way). c) Bed, duvet, cat, Kobo, and no concern for how tired tomorrow me will be.
2. The tagged, but mostly I'm just looking forward to any book that allows me to escape reality for a bit.

Not a great photo, but I got to see Paula Hawkins tonight at a fundraiser event for a local non-profit with which I volunteer, and I got a signed copy of her newest book!

Hey, SoCal Littens! In San Diego on October 30, there's an author event with Paula Hawkins that's also a fundraiser for Words Alive, the literacy non-profit with which I've volunteered for the past several years! If you plan to go, let me know...it would be awesome to meet up in person! (I'm going to just the author part after dinner.)

While the outcome was apparent to me pretty early in the story, the tension Hawkins builds as she weaves the stories of both Vanessa and Grace becomes almost unbearable at times, and the ending! Oh, the ambiguous ending! Definitely the stuff made for book clubs to debate!

Readers who are triggered by domestic violence should be aware that is an integral part of this story. This will be one of the hot books of the Fall for sure.
