Anyone is free to join in this Buddy Read! Happy Reading!

My book is being shipped. So hopefully I can pick it up Tuesday.

I will probably start this one this weekend.

Same.

Started this morning
The murder happened 10 yrs ago so flashbacks to then , but Jem trying to solve it but we dont know whats happened yet 😠😠😠..i like to know what im dealing with

I love it when books use real streets ..Toms Hill Road looks gorgeous ( google street view) and you talking of up & over £1,000, 000

The pond & pub mentioned are still there as well 😀

I love this one—the flashbacks don’t bother me, but I’m not usually a fan.

I think it’s well put together. The letter opener is nice.

Im itching to go to the back of the book and see who did it 😁😄

Well , my guess is (view spoiler)[The master , Dr Earnshaw and jem gets a job at uni and stays with Nicky (hide spoiler)]

I know who it is... but only because I read it before. It was not at all who I thought until the very end, and definitely not for the reason I expected.

I'm nearly through the reread.

I started.

Im at 70% ..Aaron has just come to see Jem ...

I know exactly how Jem is feeling ..im just going round everyone thinking it could be them 😄😄😄
I hope its not nicky

So is Jem not so much bothered about who killed Toby but more wants the letters to stop , which is obviously a different person and cant think who that could be either

I like Nicky most. Toby was a louse.

90% (view spoiler)[I wonder if Nicky didn’t actually kill Toby but someone came along after he left and finished him off. Hugo? (hide spoiler)]

Im not looking Jackie , just had to pop out and fetch hubby home and pnly got 1 chapter ..ish to read

I can start this next week.

Finished ..a very abrupt ending , i like a little epilogue to see how everyone is getting on .

Im not sure about the ending 🤔🤔, will duscuss when weve all finished

Finished. (view spoiler)[ I found the ending to be highly satisfactory. I really didn't want Nicky to be punished. It sounded like self defense anyway but as a gay man, he would have been found guilty anyway, more than likely. (hide spoiler)]

I love the twistiness of the end and feel like justice was served. I agree an epilogue would be nice, but I assume it will all work out for everyone.

Lisa I can wait for you if you wanna be reading around the same time. Just let me know when

I just picked this up today, so I could start Thursday?

Ugh, sorry I did not get notifications for this of course. Did you start? How about Monday? I'm doing audio for it so can start it and Fairytale with Kirsten at same time

I can start on Monday. The Corruption of Hollis Brown fits two new prompts I just got. :)

I'm probably looking at the end of the week. We are trying to prioritize Toys and we have to read those in order and this doesn't qualify for any of those tasks (at least I don't think they do).

Go ahead and read and I'll just comment as I go. I think I'm the last one. :)

I can wait until end of week too, I've got a couple audios I can prioritize. I just need by Sunday for Vamp so will pop back in when I'm ready for it

I switched out vamp book so may be next week for me just to catch up on some other books

All i seem to do lately , is pick books , then change them all when vamps comes out , then change again when TW comes out 🤪🤪🤪

Oh (view spoiler)[ Except Nicky (who he just got to). Because turns out Nicky wasn't actually terrible. (hide spoiler)]

I love (view spoiler)[Nicky so much. All I want is for him and Jem to live happily ever after. (hide spoiler)]

I had visions of Jem getting a job at the university somehow

I've still got like 20% but I thought this was going to be a series and the way you guys are talking I now think I'm wrong and that makes me sad lol

Also, (view spoiler)[ did you guys all laugh when I said definitely not Nicky?

Unless he's lying now?! (hide spoiler)]

A little bit. And there’s going to be a second book, at some point.

I just can't seem to get into this one. I'm going to break for a little bit and try again over the weekend.
