Who is the mystery sender? 🥰😃

“Catherine often wondered whether anthropologists became so absorbed in studying the ways of strange societies that they forgot what was the usual thing in their own (p. 21)”

Who knew the lives of anthropologists could be so interesting? Catherine is a marvelous outside observer to group as she is tossed by one for a younger student. The British wit, stoicism, and wry observations are perfection.

Jess_Read_This @LeahBergen I adore her. This one is nice but it I enjoyed Excellent Women a bit better. I think I‘m going to try Jane and Prudence after this too. ❤️ 4y

#currentlyreading My #Anglophile self has had this one on my To-Read list for awhile. Excited to finally get started! A Novel about the life and loves of Winston Churchill‘s scandalous American mother.

It‘s June so that it means it‘s time for a wedding . . . and a mystery (of course). Have you ever seen roses this color? I hadn‘t. So unusual!

The 18th Abduction | James Patterson, Maxine Paetro

I think this is Patterson‘s latest book. #AnotherOneBitesTheDust #Anglophile

I don‘t read him any longer, but you have to admit, he‘s prolific if nothing. I wonder if when he wraps his latest, does he sing Another One Bites the Dust?

Cinfhen Good pick☺️ 5y

ravenlee I‘ve bern wondering for years how much “collaborating” he actually does. I‘m guessing his contributions go something like “here‘s the title, and these are the characters. And I thought of a good line, work it in somewhere. Let me know when it‘s done.” 5y
Mdargusch Very funny thought! 🤩 5y
Reviewsbylola My dad really likes his books. I‘ve read one. 😄 5y
Samplergal @Reviewsbylola I read a bunch of his early ones. I haven‘t for years. Those were the days when I had young children, so I guess that all I could get through. A chapter a day. 😂😂😂😂 does he still have like 2000 chapters? 5y

I saw the movie first , which led me to read several books about this true story. Anne Perry, the mystery writer, is one of the girls implicated. Fascinating, these girls plot to kill one of the girls mother. Worth watching and reading.

Reviewsbylola This is on my TBR! 5y
Mdargusch Sounds tragic. 😢 5y
MoonWitch94 The movie stunned me when I saw it 5y

#Wonderwall makes me think of how this main character is just looking for someone to save him, help him, ease his pain. It's so sad

Reviewsbylola Such a bright cover! 5y
Cinfhen Great choice and I agree @Reviewsbylola book design is misleading 5y
Mdargusch Good tie in! 5y

I'm loving this book, and I don't know why I waited so long to read it! The only part I would ditch is the continual descriptions of 80s hair and clothing- you wouldn't do that in a contemporary mystery, so why now? #mystery #cozy #Anglophile
