Reviews and Comments

Je continue ma collection d'Agatha. Pareille à elle-même. Je suis fan donc pas vraiment objectif :-)

Not bad - see previous comments on the series.

Excellent - nice change from the previous. still some gimmicks but much less, and many twists. The best of the series so far. Ho, and if you wonder why I keep on reading those when obviously I don't like them that much, it's just that the action is set in the SF bay area. So reading is an opportunity to remember what the place looks like and the fun time I had there :-)

See previous books of the series :-)

Confirms what I was saying: pretty good criminal investigation, but structure is always the same. Not going to say anything not to spoil it but it's clearly a framework -always the same. It's not bad as such, but if you happen to read them all in sequence as I do, it is a bit tedious. Can't help thinking how ok, now is the time this happens. lets skim that and go back to the real stuff. Ho well. easy reading.

Same comment. Crime story nicely done, but too much useless side stuff.

Not bad. The mysteries in themselves are well thought of, but there are some recurring gimmicks which are slowly getting on my nerves. I'm not going to say anything cause that would be a spoiler. I'll still read the next one and see if my suspicion is confirmed.

Témoignage assez intéressant sur ce qu'était la vie en Allemagne de l'Est via le récit d'une vie d'échange entre deux amis. Lecture facile mais passionnante tout de même, notamment la reproduction du fichier STASI de l'auteur en fin d'ouvrage !!! Livré avec une URL avec les liens vers le rock DDR sur Internet. Ça vaut vraiment le coup d'être lu !!!

Just the length of my trip. Quite interresting witness account of what life was in east Germany via friend exchange. Easy reading but fascinating all the same, specially the reproduction of the author's STASI file at the end of the book !!! Comes with a URL with the links to the DDR rock on the internet. Definitely worth reading !!!

Nice. Didn't know the serie, but interresting. Some unnecessarily scene but I guess you need that to sell in some countries. Decent plot and whodunnit.

Ideal on along travelling day :-) Nice police thriller from Scandinavia, in the the tradition of Mankell or Nesbø. I'll be looking for him next time I'm up there, s I prefer the originl version to translations - however good they might be.

Yet another nice mystery. As you may have noticed i'm (re)reading a whole batch of Agatha Christie at the moment. It is simply because they were written around 1920 and are surfacing in my usual channels since in many countries copyright expire after 100 years. Expect many more in a near future.

Nice twist, as usual with Agatha... Not a Poirot or Pyne or Marple for a change.

Dangereux, parce que déjà, on risque de passer une nuit blanche, vu qu'on parvient pas à le poser. Et plein d'idées réactionnaires qu'on connaît mais qui sont parfois particulièrement bien exprimées. Excellent bouquin; un seul regret: OU EST LA SUITE ??? On attend "Scanneurs" avec impatience. On particulièrement aimé: la numérotation des chapitres. On a moins aimé: le "Deus ex machina" Sinon cela a un petit côté "black mirror" tout à fait délicieux. Cela ferait un chouette épisode.
