Ok @RaeLovesToRead , now that Thanksgiving is out of my system, let me deal with your questions.
1. I think the tagged book might be the only mystery I've read this year. ?
2. Found The Long Goodbye in a local used book store and am going to re-read (not sure if Chandler counts as "mystery", exactly).
3. I like locked-room mysteries, especially if they include a relatively plausible solution.
@RaeLovesToRead has questions, y‘all! ❓
#IHaveQuestions
1. Tagged! It‘s my current read and the only book I‘ve read this year with mystery elements so far. 😳 I‘m about 2/3rds of the way through, and already the book has thrown a twist at me I didn‘t see coming.
2. My vote for next book I‘m going to read changes almost daily, but I‘ve been eyeing my copy of “The Sun Down Motel”.
3. I do especially love mysteries with supernatural elements. 👻

❤️ Most definitely The Only One Left by Riley Sager! He is one of my top favorite mystery/thriller authors!
❤️ The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman! I keep hearing great things about it and I need to set aside time for it!
❤️ I don't know if this is technically a trope, but I do LOVE when the protagonist is an unreliable narrator! 🤭 It's such fun!
#ihavequestions Thanks for the tag, Rae!
I‘ve read some great mysteries this year, but I‘ll have to go with A Judgement in Stone by Ruth Rendell for the best. SO GOOD!
Looking ahead to early 2024, I‘m most excited for the new Denfeld (tagged) and The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels by Janice Hallett.
Not exactly a trope, but I‘m always drawn to mysteries with a supernatural element. Oh, and I can‘t resist an elderly sleuth.

Sorry I'm late on this!
1. Tana French's IN THE WOODS ... opened up the Dubliner Series for me! I'm delighted that she's on @Soubhiville's #AuthorAMonth for next year as well!
2. I don't have one in particular right now, but I am looking forward to the wintry short stories/books this December; most are mysteries.
3. I love an excellently written locked room mystery. 🤩

✔️The Ministry of unladylike activity
✔️The Body in the blitz (following on from the book above)
✔️ A mystery set in school
#IHaveQuestions @RaeLovesToRead
1️⃣ A Dead Man Walking by JD Kirk
2️⃣ Currently I don't have anything on my radar. However, that could change.
3️⃣ I don't have a favorite. For me, it is all about the characters.
Thanks for the tag, @Kimzey !
1. For darker mysteries, I would say Exiles by Jane Harper. For cozies, Six Sweet Under by Sarah Fox
2. So many, both backlists and future publications! I have to catch up on Louise Penny and Donna Leon.
3. Probably locked room
