"And he wondered, if love followed them through lifetimes, did hate also follow?"
Baking ham & cheese sliders for a work party while also attempting to get my reading in this morning. Wad able to get a few pages in before it was time to get ready for work. Love the very Agatha Chrisitie-like writing in this novel. I'm wondering how the title fits into this story.

pickI listened 2 the 1st book in the Gamache series & perhaps bc of that I had problems following at times. It changed perspectives so many times it was hard to keep track. I think I‘ve been reading/listening to just thrillers that it was challenging to listen to a slower paced mystery. I liked the reveal at the end & more of the pieces came together. I will give the 2nd in the series a chance. Most likely on audio.
Armand Gamache is a father figure to his children, their partners and children, most of the town of Three Pines, and a significant portion of the members of the Sûreté du Quebéc. In this installment he‘s assumed a thankless and difficult position as head of the Academy, where he picks up another “orphan” among the cadets. #sundayfunday
pickI took a little break from this series but recently picked up book 13. It did not disappoint! It was wonderful to visit Three Pines again, and this mystery kept me turning pages. I loved the structure Penny uses to tell the story through flashbacks while we listen to Gamache's testimony on the witness stand.
pickExcellent on audio. The characters are so well fleshed out.
Next audible
pickLovely to start from the beginning again. Three Pines and Gamache are two of the best characters in fiction.
pickI think these stories are perfect. Gamache and Beauvoir and Lacoste must solve another murder in Three pines. All the characters are there - Clara and Peter, Ruth, Myrna, Gabri and Olivier. The woman murdered, Madeleine, seems perfect, loved who would want to put out her star?? Gamache's past (the Arnot case) is still a problem. ⬇️
