The death of a ninety-year-old woman with a heart condition should not be suspicious. Detective Sergeant Harbinder Kaur certainly sees nothing out of the ordinary when Peggy’s caretaker, Natalka, begins to recount Peggy Smith’s passing. But Natalka had a reason to be at the police station: while clearing out Peggy’s flat, she noticed an unusual number of crime novels, all dedicated to Peggy. And each psychological thriller included a mysterious postscript: PS: for PS.

a quirky original
Revisado: 05-11-24
excellent narration of this story, with enough traditional elements to be a bit cozy, but plenty of original and unique plot elements and character development to make it stand out and keep you engaged.

When Aurelie Harcourt's father dies in debtor's prison, he leaves her just two things: his wealthy family, whom she has never met, and his famous pen name, Nathaniel Droll. Her new family greets her with apathy and even resentment. Only the quiet houseguest, Silas Rotherham, welcomes her company. When Aurelie decides to complete her father's unfinished serial novel, she must keep her identity as Nathaniel Droll hidden while searching for the truth about her mother's disappearance - and perhaps even her father's death.

enjoyable light read

this was an enjoyable Gothic style novel. while it had all of the expected elements of a story set in a manor house in 19th century England, it also had some unique elements and twists. the narration was excellent

Who hasn’t wondered for a split second what the world would be like if a person who is the object of your affliction ceased to exist? But then you’ve probably never heard of The McMasters Conservatory, dedicated to the consummate execution of the homicidal arts. To gain admission, a student must have an ethical reason for erasing someone who deeply deserves a fate no worse (nor better) than death. The campus of this “Poison Ivy League” college—its location unknown to even those who study there—is where you might find yourself the practice target of a classmate.

creative fun story, with excellent performances by NPH and Simon Vance. I think I would have enjoyed a print version of this novel ad well, but the performances of these two are not to be missed.

New York City, 1899. Tillie Pembroke’s sister lies dead, her body drained of blood and with two puncture wounds on her neck. Bram Stoker’s new novel, Dracula, has just been published, and Tillie’s imagination leaps to the impossible: the murderer is a vampire. But it can’t be - can it? A ravenous reader and researcher, Tillie has something of an addiction to truth, and she won’t rest until she unravels the mystery of her sister’s death.

Enjoyable, immersive, period mystery
Revisado: 02-26-23
enjoyed this atmospheric read, set in Gilded Age NYC. I found the voice acting was great and and the prose and storyline were engaging and seemed to have enough historic and scientific accuracy to keep the reader immersed in the period, making the setting almost a character itself.

In an authoritarian America, personal freedoms are at risk, information is being controlled, and legal citizens suddenly find themselves being deported. A growing resistance movement is active, angry, and looking to strike back. And a TV show for kids may be the key. Enter Celeste Montgomery and Bailey Vance. Celeste is an intern for the show that features Bailey singing and dancing with puppets. While Bailey teaches the kids about geography, Celeste is planting codes into the script, songs, background, whatever she can do to pass messages for the resistance.

When Ann Stilwell arrives in New York City, she expects to spend her summer working as a curatorial associate at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Instead, she finds herself assigned to The Cloisters, a gothic museum and garden renowned for its medieval art collection and its group of enigmatic researchers studying the history of divination. Desperate to escape her painful past, Ann is happy to indulge the researchers’ more outlandish theories about the history of fortune telling.

a solid debut
Revisado: 12-13-22
overall, I enjoyed this novel. there were some slightly uneven parts, like what I heard as unnecessarily long adjective descriptions sometimes, and a few descriptions of the Cloisters and NYC that felt off, and jarred me out of the narrative. some of the characters were unlikable but I felt that was integral to the story and I liked them written that way. a few smaller characters I thought could have been more developed, since I found myself a few times trying to figure out who they were in the story. a strong debut and I will look for other fiction by this author in the future.
