#TLT #ThreeListThursday

Thanks for the tag @dabbe 😊

Crime fiction and mystery is probably my favorite genre, so it was great fun to peruse this list. Listed are the top three from the list that I HAVEN‘T read yet, but really want to.

Feel like trying it out for yourself? Consider yourself tagged. This is the link: https://www.listchallenges.com/litsy-time-magazines-100-best-mystery-and/list/3

dabbe I read THE THREE COFFINS. It's also known as THE HOLLOW MAN. It was classic noir, and I really enjoyed it. I'm adding quite a few to my TBR, too! Thanks for playing and sharing! 🖤🎃🖤 5d

I picked this up at an Op shop based on the name and cover, took it as my recent read while travelling. The plot is far fetched and too much of a stretch and it just did not do it for me.

‘I drive. That‘s what I do. All I do.‘

‘Driver‘, a Hollywood stunt driver by day, and a getaway driver by night.

Dark, atmospheric noir fiction. I liked the narration style. This was a fast paced story with all the right details to fully immerse you in the scenes.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Spent most of today reading The Exorcist, so starting something not so spooky on Kindle tonight.

1. No one book in particular, but I'm looking forward to reading some darker mysteries, like the tagged book.

2. Carving pumpkins and roasting pumpkin seeds for Hallowe'en.

3. Moon cakes, which are usually available at Asian stores before the Mid-Autumn festival.

4. All the bingo boards, and seeing all the scary/spooky books Littens are reading!

PuddleJumper Sounds great! There are so many bingo boards 🤣 1mo

Night Fever | Ed Brubaker

I‘m not sure what I expected from this graphic but it wasn‘t this. “Reckless” is such a great series, I was sad it came to an end.

“Night Fever” is a once-off. It‘s dark. Some of the sex scenes reminded me of Kubrick‘s “Eyes Wide Shut”. A bit baroque, shall we say?

The art is gorgeous. The story is a huge mind-hump. Was Jonathan Webb deeply sleep-deprived & hallucinating? Are 4-armed aliens coming to conquer Earth?

I‘ve no idea. Mind-hump.

TieDyeDude I liked the trippy and ambiguous nature of the story in this one. Not my favorite Brubaker/Phillips, but a solid offering.
Did they announce \“Reckless\“ is over?! I love that series. Follow Me Down has a great ending, but I\'m bummed there won\'t be more.
