I Need You to Read This by Jessa Maxwell

Alex Marks is a solitary, lonely young woman in New York City, grateful for a remote copywriting job, although it barely pays the rent, and her daily breakfast at the Bluebird Diner, where she has two friends, sarcastic waitress, Janice, and retired policeman, Raymond. Although it happened months ago, she is still devastated by the unsolved murder of Francis Keen, who wrote the popular Dear Constance advice column for the New York Herald.

What to Read - Fall 2024

I started thinking about Fall 2024 books today and there are quite a few that sound appealing:

Mystery/Suspense

Death at the Sign of the Rook by Kate Atkinson (September). I am a big fan of Yorkshire-based PI Brodie. In this sixth book, Jackson is pursuing some mysterious art thefts when he gets stranded in a snowstorm with a vicar, a soldier, and a dowager at a hotel hosting Murder Mystery weekends.  You know such weekends are an invitation to commit actual murder!
