pickThis Aussie mystery was a lot of fun! Think ‘Knives Out‘ meets Richard Osman, with a healthy dose of meta-ness and a big old nod to classic era mysteries. I loved how each section was framed around a certain family member, and how the narrator broke the ‘fourth wall‘ giving the reader extra stuff along the way. I also didn‘t see most of the twists coming. Really looking forward to number 2 after seeing @Hooked_on_books review!

julesG Oh, I like your edition's cover. Mine has a pigeon and a knife on the cover. Really liked both books and hope there's going to be another one. 9mo
KarenUK @julesG I hear that HBO picked up the rights, so there‘ll be a tv show too I think…. 9mo

BarbaraBB How are you Karen? Missing you here! 4mo
KarenUK @BarbaraBB Aw thank you Barbara. I really miss it too. I‘m just really struggling to read this past year…. And don‘t feel I have much to say on here at all. Barely making it through a book or two each month… not sure what‘s going on except my panic attacks and anxiety are flaring up terribly. Just can‘t seem to relax 🤷♀️… sending you lots of love and hope all is wonderful with you. Xxx 3mo
BarbaraBB So sorry to hear that, that must be hard. Will you be coming to Gladstone in October? That would be lovely but I don‘t know if you‘re up to it and made a reservation? Xxxx 3mo
KarenUK @BarbaraBB not going to make it this year. Wish I could, but I‘m overwhelmed at work with so many new stores opening near me. 🙁 3mo
BarbaraBB I understand! Would have liked it a lot to meet you! 🤍 3mo
