I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Catching up on last weekends rdng + this v good spy story. Scarlet King is a British agent who, in 1946, helps kidnap a German scientist to Eng + then rises through the ranks of the secret service nearly to head MI6. When historian Max Archer is invited to meet Scarlet in her 90s, she has a story to tell which could be a bigger scandal than the Cambridge 5 + the establishment tries to stop the leak. Fast paced,+ well researched, the pages flew by.

Tell No One | Harlan Coben

Pickpick

I had not read Harlan Coben before and ChatGPT recommended this one to start with. Still sailing the Greek Mediterranean I had the perfect day starting and finishing this 400 pages fast paced thriller in one go. A perfect day and a pageturning read. Lots of twists and suspense from the moment David Bech receives a message from his wife who was murdered eight years before.

I started this one yesterday and I almost bailed. But I returned to it today and I'm so glad that I did. Very similar vibes to Danielle's Devil's House. Plan on finishing tomorrow. Such a fascinating, complex, disturbing portrait of a terrible crime.

Ruthiella This one has been in my list since I head booktuber Mercedes at Mercy‘s Bookish Musings praise it. 2d
LeahBergen I‘ve been wondering about this one! 2d
Leniverse I feel like I'm the only reader on the planet who didn't really like Boy Parts, and this one actually got mixed reviews so I've stayed away 🤪 2d
Tamra I bailed on the audio. 😏 2d
BarbaraBB I didn‘t like this one. It was my first Clarke 1d

The Secret of Chimneys | Agatha Christie

#ChristiesCapers

This kindle edition of the tagged book is weird. On page 36 there was an author pic of Agatha and I thought ‘sloppy editing‘. Now there are different pics on pages 79 and 114, does that mean it‘s intentional? Is so, I don‘t think I like it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Librarybelle

Librarybelle That is so bizarre! I would not like that either. 2d
Bookwormjillk I had a copy of the Bell Jar that was funky like that once and Amazon took it away and refunded my money because they said it was unauthorized! 2d

AnnCrystal 🧐 That's odd?? 2d
Bookwomble I was just reading about the first publication of the Sherlock Holmes stories in book form following their original serial publication in the Strand magazine, which said that because the formatting was changed from double to single column, the publisher had to move the illustrations around and they ended up not being on the same page as the passage they depicted. Maybe something similar here? 🤔 2d
