pickWhyyyyy did it take me so long to read this? I blame the holiday blues. I‘ll admit that I got a little angry at the ending, because it felt unfinished and just not “right” somehow. Then I realized that Louise just threw a cliffhanger in there 😂 I‘m so confused 😂 #readyourkindle
I found this disappointing after the first book. A lot of time spent in very unpleasant POVs, a lot of nasty fat-shaming, and -- as with the first -- Gamache seems far too willing to let his suspects be involved in the case. (Has he never heard of the concept of tampering with evidence?) Still, I like the characters enough, and am curious enough about the dangling threads, to read on.
Absolute best thing about reading a very popular book is browsing the foreign language editions. What is even happening?!
pick#10 in the Chief Inspector Gamache series had me laughing like the others but also crying hard. Crying hard over a duck at that (#iykyk)! The main plot would have seemed inconceivable to me 10 years ago. However,after seeing blatant corruption in the highest levels of our government embraced in the real world, it feels sadly plausible. Another great read by Penny—entertainment with heart that makes you think. 👩🍳💋
pickMy favorite in the series so far, and Three Pines was barely in it! Chief inspector Gamache and his wife are celebrating their anniversary at Manoir Bellechasse, just over the mountain range from Three Pines. Yearly visitors, this visit coincides with the Morrow family reunion, including the Gamache‘s friends from Three Pines, Peter and Clara. The last book hinted at Peter‘s dark side. When a Morrow is killed, is Peter to blame or another ⬇️

Already dropped my son off at work and been to the grocery store. Now settling in for a breakfast break. (Breakfast break might last until lunch.)
So today was weird- my daughter and I had the day off but my son had a day of virtual school and painters were here sanding and painting my doors. So I was holed up in my room reading the new Louise Penny and partaking in the #ComfortReadathon when not my cat jumped up on my bed! He had sweet talked the painters into letting him in, ate all my cats‘ food, and then was going to sleep in my bed 😂😂😂
