This intriguing story captures the tone of New York City in 1924 and has a great premise: Rose Baker, a young female stenographer works in a Manhattan police office, taking the confessions of witnesses and criminals. The arrival of glamourous and independent Odalie, 'the other typist' adds flavour t...
This was my third book by Suzanne Rindell. And, this one did not disappoint at all. Actually, I have loved all three of her books. (I'm still waiting to see "The Typist" on film - it was picked up years ago!!)This one dealt with barnstorming and airplane rides. These people were crazy enough to clim...
The competitive world of New York publishing in the 1950s comes to life in Suzanne Rindell’s second novel, after The Other Typist. Rindell illustrates the time and place through the stories of three characters: Cliff, the son of privilege who is convinced he will show The Old Man up by publishing...

I LOVED her first book! So I put in a request and literally jumped for joy when I got approved. It's been sitting on...
Three Martini Lunch by Suzanne Rindell builds at a very slow burn. At over 500 pages, this story takes a while to develop. The book tells the story of the book industry in 1950s and 1960s New York through three perspectives, highlighting the prejudices of the time. It is a beautiful period piece tha...
New York in den Goldenen Zwanzigern. Es ist die Zeit der Prohibition und der Emanzipation, der Mauerblümchen und verruchten Damenwelt, der Prüderie und Mondscheinkneipen. Mitten in diesen aufgewühlten Tagen ist Rose eine einfache Schreibkraft, in einem Police Department und obwohl sie als junge Frau...

Siempre tan hermosa, ¿no?...speakeasies......bootleggers.......y la crisis económica fatal acechando, obvio. Historia y decadencia narradas por una s...
Author Suzanne Rindell crafts an enticing, easy to devour story of deception and sin in her debut novel The Other Typist. This is the kind of book you can (and I certainly did) finish in a single weekend, a pleasurable story full of suspense and scandal. Set in the 1920’s, Rindell’s prose rings with...
If The Great Gatsby and speakeasies speak to you here is a book for you. As a debut novel by Suzanne Rindell I hope there will be more to read by her in the future. It's New York City in the 1920's, we first we learn about Rose who is plain and mousy. Dull clothes and a lackluster personality her...
This was quite a fun read for me. Set at a police precinct in 1920s New York, it's a mystery about how the bob-haired, modern, extravagant new typist Odalie captivated her plain, straitlaced co-worker Rose. A hefty dose of foreshadowing by a narrator with questionable reliability leads to a deliciou...
