Jean-Guy is reeling from a lot of changes in his personal life that are not affecting his health. Gamache is troubled by changes going on with his daughter, Annie and with a former friend o...
It's no secret by this time that Louise Penny is one of my most favourite mystery writers, indeed one of my fave writers PERIOD. A Trick of the Light just reaffirms those facts. :) Chief Inspector Armand Gamache is back with his team, Beauvoir and Lacoste, but after the events of the previous tw...
The last three books in this series have reminded me why I don't typically read contemporary fiction. I feel like too much of the poetic prose has been overwhelmed with modern issues that I have no interest in. The mystery in this novel is unpredictable and as convoluted as any other in the series...
I must admit I like this series more and more with each installment. This series is not exciting, doesn't keep you on your toes, but instead it's meticulous, patient, and so real, it's heartbreaking. I fell like I need to meet Gamache in real life and tell him how much I admire him. I definitively r...
Sometimes I love Mary Sues and Gary Stus and sometimes I hate them. I've loved (most of) Louise Penny's Marys and Garys from the beginning, and now that some of my favorites are showing their mere mortal-ness I find myself conflicted. I want them to be paragons of crime-fighting who hardly ever put ...
Another great book from this series. I especially like Ruth, who I didn't really care for until the goose. I loved how she questioned the two art brokers/agents, whatever they are called. I liked how there's some kind of step forward with Jean Guy and Clara and Peter's date in one year. They really ...

I dabble in reading mysteries - I enjoy them, but I don't generally seek them out. Louise Penny is an exception to this rule. These days, she's the one mystery author I will actively seek out, often borrowing copies of her books we've given to my mother or mother-in-law. Her books are always a pleas...
