for a charming girl,
she surrounds herself with a
collection of dopes.

Laura (1944) is my favorite film noir movie, can‘t recommend it enough! The full quote is:

“I must say, for a charming, intelligent girl, you certainly surrounded yourself with a remarkable collection of dopes.”

Not my favorite volume so far. The lives of three characters told from three different POVs.

3rd book done! This series gets more intense with each installment.

This has been my favorite so far even though I wanted to vomit 50% of the time I spent reading it 🤢

Mehso-so

I found an old volume of mystery stories & novels while antiquing a couple weeks ago. The first novel in the collection was The Maltese Falcon, which I have never actually read. It had some good twists but wasn't amazing. Overall this only gets a so-so.

This bail is more a reflection of my reading mood than the book. Dorothy B. Hughes has interesting plots and writes well, but I just couldn't find the headspace to get into this one.

Tracy returns home to find answers about the death of his brother. No stranger to getting his hands dirty, he joins his brother's old crew and gets in deeper than he expected. Solid gold from Brubaker and Phillips.
