Kto zna książki Marty Kisiel ten wie, czego mniej więcej się spodziewać - dużo humoru, plastycznego języka, "wybuchowych" stylistycznie zdań i... osadzenie kryminału nieco w tyle. Taki urok komedii kryminalnych - ta jest bardzo dobra i zabawna, choć nie ustrzegła się wad.

Emma, by Jane Austen.
You are but one and twenty, a gentleman’s daughter, but fixed on never marrying so that you may care for your hypochondriac father; this, however, does not dissuade you from the disastrous matchmaking you attempt for others, which goes wildly awry, embroiling yourself even, though you are always sensible to the distinction of rank.

The Luminous Life of Lucy Landry is a timelessly sweet tale of found family from rising Ojibwe voice Anna Rose Johnson, author of NPR Best Book of the Year The Star That Always Stays .
What's better for the environment: A paper book, or an e-reader? NPR spoke to industry experts about the rise of digital reading, how the publishing industry is reducing waste, and whether using a fossil-fuel-derived plastic e-reader is a better option than a paper book.

Ein schaler Geschmack, den der Roman #Helix des Österreichischen Autors #MarcElsberg zurücklässt. Da wären wohl wichtige Themen zu verhandeln gewesen (=Genmanipulation und die Frage ihrer gesellschaftlichen Relevanz), aber der aufgeblasene Text will unbedingt Bestseller werden und verkommt zum linear erzählten Krimischinken.
Unbedingte Empfehlung: Nicht lesen, da Zeitverschwendung!

Got the new Valancourt reprint of “In A Lonely Place” for my birthday. Pretty curious about this. I’ve read all KEW’s sword & sorcery Kane stories, but very few of his straight horror stories.
