The Ruin | Dervla McTiernan

Glad I gave her another go. This was her first book and I have really enjoyed it. The characters are very real. Looking forward to reading more with the detective Cormac.

Avanders I love this series! Which one of hers did you read first? 1w
Jeg @Avanders I read The Murder Rule and just recently What Happened to Nina. I didn‘t warm to either of them. Just so so. Think I‘m a Cormac fan though. 😊 1w
Avanders Those are the only 2 of hers that I haven‘t read! Good to manage my expectations. 😉 I definitely found the Cormac series to be the best. 1w

Very busy & long day! I went on a 13 hour tour to the Cliffs of Moher, The Burren and #Galway. The sights and nature were spectacular and we got really lucky with the weather (some sun, no rain and lots of wind). In Galway, I found this lovely indy bookstore and I got 3 non-fiction novels about Ireland (famine, murders and pirates!).

This is an excellent detective/crime story with a fantastic narrator. More so than any other audiobook I‘ve listened to, I envisioned it so clearly like a movie the whole time I was listening.

My 10th from the Booker longlist was wonderful! I came in with no expectations and was rewarded with an inspiring story. A novel about an autistic boy who misses the mother he never knew, working out a device for perpetual motion; and a school teacher in a bad marriage exhausted by her dysfunctional all-boys school, yet fully committed to it. A novel of the children of missing parents, some grown, stumbling through life. Recommended! #booker2023

If you‘re looking for an excellent mystery with suspense, betrayal, and corruption, I highly recommend The Ruin by Dervla McTiernan. It‘s the first installment of the Cormac Reilly Mystery series. I purchased the audiobook from Audible. I loved the beautiful narration by Aoife McMahon. I could listen to her all day!
