Prompt 37: Started on the 26th of a month
If I hadn't known this was the first published book of this Queen of Crimes author and read it as part of my Personal Curriculum for The Golden Age of Detective Fiction, I wouldn't have finished it. A rambling story that shows the promise fulfilled in her later books. 2.5 stars.
For fun - The second book in a series - hope there are more. 4 stars.
Prompt 10: Spans a decade or more.
I picked this up from a Little Free Library and it was a "beach read". Predictable plot; well written. 2.5 stars.
I checked off the "started on the 26th of a month" prompt too. I just wanted to check that one off before we got any further into the year. :)
ReplyDeleteThe Ladies Road Guide to Utter Ruin sounds interesting!
It is the second in the series & I hope she writes more!
DeleteMoving right along as usual I see.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
