Pickpick

A police procedural set on Nantucket, this book is a must read for mystery buffs. Character driven, the ending‘s revelations shocked me. Triggers: child sexual & physical abuse. #readyourkindle #September

After work journaling & reading. Beautiful afternoon: soft breeze, 73 degrees, bird song, leaves at the tip of turning. Feeling relaxed & content. #75Soft #porchlife #MondayMood #MoodMonday

Mehso-so

I have a finish! I'm just not sure what I think of it. For more than half the book we get a LOT of the main detective character exercising, deciding what to eat, describing Nantucket in way too much detail, thinking about his history- with plenty of info about his parents, wife, and sons- and, occasionally, thinking about the case he's been sent to oversee. The bones of a young child have been discovered at a construction site, which they've been

bookandbedandtea able to narrow down as being from the 70s-90s. But there are no reports of missing children from that time period. Several times I nearly quit because nothing seemed to be happening. Then, suddenly, the reader realizes something that reframes the story and some relevant information finally turns up. Now the whole thing has become pretty interesting. Even the sloooow beginning made sense but it was such a slog to get there. Between pick and so-so. 3mo
