The Girl Before

Fiction by J.P. Delaney

The Girl Before
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/

Here is the story of two women: Jane in the present and Emma in the past, and their stories are eerily similar. Emma ended up dead, but what will happen to Jane?

How's that for a teaser? Does it make you want to read this book?

On an unrelated note, I've mentioned before about the trend I've noticed of authors identifying themselves by initials, such as E.L. James of Fifty Shades of Grey fame. I've speculated that they are trying to sound androgynous, keeping the reader from identifying the author as a male or a female. Well, I found an interview online with this author, who is using a pseudonym, and he ADMITTED that was his goal! (Click here to read that article if you're interested.)

When I found Crooked House in order to finish reading it, this book was included in the edition I bought.

This mystery I had also read before, but it was great! Definitely "The Queen of Mystery" still!

Crooked House

Fiction by Agatha Christie.

I re-read this classic book after I started listening to it as an audiobook on a trip.

I'd forgotten the details and was surprised once again by who the murderer was. Agatha Christie is a master writer!




Also I made this little collage of all the different covers of this book I found:
This thing must have been reprinted like a ba-zillion times!
