"The adulation of the opposite sex merely gave him the feeling of being the prey at a hunt that never ended."

October 2026 #TBRChallenge - "The Hunt"

Apparently Freeman has figured the only way to make Jervis look intelligent is to have incredibly dim non-Jervis narrators in the novels.

Dr Jardine is capital-D D-U-M-B. The reason that woman you keep running into is so shocked to see you? It's because you're alive after numerous attempts on your life, dumbass!

I need a break from the capital-D D-U-M-B narrator of the latest Thorndyke book, and what better place to escape to than Stoneybrook? <3 Nostalgia re-readathon week two is here!

I have just gobbled this up this week!

I foresee the two seemingly separate cases ultimately becoming one - but what is the German connection? Hmm.

Jervis seems to be especially oblivious this time around, and he doesn't even have the excuse of infatuation LOL 😂

Making a map while effectively blind is pretty ingenious - get those other senses sharp and working!

Okay, this shit's insane, even by Valley standards!

I am really enjoying this puzzle and all its possibilities, lovesick Berkeley notwithstanding. But, its time for SVU shenanigans!!

Lord save us all from a lovesick fool who waxes poetically in his narration 🫠

And Godfrey Bellingham reminds me of Lionel Barrymore's cantankerous old Dr Gillespie from the "Dr Kildare" series 😂

Oh, dear, Mr Freeman is writing another "romance" for his narrator with a woman at the center of the mystery 😬 This time is not Jervis, but another newly qualified GP, Paul Berkeley.

"The Moabite Cypher" - okay, this one made me laugh out loud. Excellent use of absolute alleys of red herrings!

Pretty "meh" so far; perhaps they shouldn't have spent 3 chapters building up this story as something so wild and crazy it can scarcely be believed. Every metaphor that is used is homoerotic, which makes me wonder about the authors more than the people they're writing about.

My latest win from LibraryThing Early Reviewers.

I've been curious about this since reading the biography of Crumb last year. Imagine my surprise to actually find it on my library shelves! In the Religions section, no less!
