Pickpick

Soft pick. It held my attention (for all it‘s rambling) & I loved Minerva & Chablis. The whole situation was quite strange.

The facade of peaceful life in Savannah, GA is upturned when a prominent antiques dealer is tried 4 separate times in the shooting of his lover.

While this non-fiction novel did an excellent job at painting a gorgeous scene of a city stuck in the past & an intriguing recounting of a complicated case, I couldn‘t get past the feeling that Berendt really felt like he was better than the people around him.🌕🌕🌑🌑🌑

Ruthiella @5feet.of.fury I just read this last month and liked it. The author does hold himself aloof, but I didn‘t find him to be judgmental, personally. Give it a whirl! 1mo

Pickpick

I found this pic of the Bonaventure Cemetery in Savannah, GA on the blog: http://keepingupwiththejones-s.blogspot.com/2010/06/midnight-in-garden-of-good-a...

This book was everywhere in the ‘90s. It only took me 30 years to get to it. It was pretty good, like a really long, tangential magazine article. The true crime aspect is almost overshadowed by the detours and eccentric characters. Still, a very evocative portrait of Savannah.

BookNAround They‘ve had to remove this statue from the cemetery because too many people were trampling on the grave it marks thanks to the book cover! It‘s now inside a building instead. 2mo

Published in 1994 but about a true crime that happened in 1981. I‘ve had this book now probably since the early aughts and providentially picked it up yesterday to read because it will fit this month‘s #TBRTarot tag “Set in the‘80s”

AmyG It‘s a very good book. 2mo
Ruthiella @AmyG I read the first chapter yesterday and was pretty well hooked! 2mo

Someone once wrote that musicians are touched on the shoulder by God, and I think it's true. You can make other people happy with music, but you can make yourself happy too. Because of my music, I have never known loneliness and have never been depressed.

A low pick but it was a quick read. The characters were good. Made me remember my trip to Savannah and Tybee Island a few years ago. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
