Only started this book because I have the last book in the series, “Holly” that I want to get to. Overall engaging. Looking forward to rest

First 12 pages absolutely wild.

“if prayer does not make a man leave sin, sin will make a man leave prayer”

There is a saying that all modern philosophy is just a rehashing of what the ancient Greek philosophers figured out 2,000 years ago. I am 8 pages in and can see why.

Oof

Book said murder mystery. 172 pages in and still waiting for murder and or mystery…
