THE NAUGHTY NINETIES by Peter Seymour
The Naughty Nineties A Saucy Pop-Up Book for Adults Only - Peter Seymour,Lesley Jane Kaiser,Borje Svensson,Keith Mosely,John Strejan

A Pop-up book for adults about the Naughty Nineties--that's 1890's--the end of the Victorian Age. It shows what would be incorrect behavior today.

 

I enjoyed this book. It's tongue-in-cheek humor. I found it fun and giggly. It has the tabs just like the kids' pop-up books. It just something to enjoy and maybe figure those Victorians were not so tight laced as they seemed. Just enjoy!

Einfach nur großartig!
Naturphänomene verstehen - Peter Wohlleben
Peter Wohlleben hat hier im Hörverlag mit „Naturphänomene verstehen“ ein durch und durch wunderbares Hörbuch veröffentlicht. Die Kapitel sind inhaltlich unglaublich vielfältig und von Anfang bis Ende wahnsinnig interessant und auch lehrreich. Peter Wohlleben behandelt besondere Abläufe des Jahres, Geschehen in Wald und Garten, Wetterphänomene, Tiere & Pflanzen, wie wichtig Schädlinge oder auch Pilze sind und die Notwendigkeit des Zusammenspiels dieser ganzen Bereiche – aber im Detail auch noch extrem Vieles mehr. Und wie man das von Peter Wohlleben kennt, geht er den Dingen auf seine ganz eigene Art auf die Spur und erklärt uns die Natur liebevoll bis in manches verblüffende Detail, ohne dabei belehrend oder langweilig zu werden. Ein weiterer Pluspunkt bei diesem Hörbuch ist meiner Meinung nach auch die Wahl des Sprechers: Peter Kaempfe holt mit seiner Stimme, Les- und Sprechart noch einmal den letzten Rest der Faszination aus dem Buch und den Inhalten heraus. Man lauscht seinen Worten durchgängig wie gebannt und folgt neugierig den Schilderungen. Wohlleben und Kaempfe in Kombination sind hier meiner Meinung nach die perfekte Wahl. Ich persönlich habe das Hörbuch mittlerweile nicht nur 1 mal gehört, sondern nach dem Ende gleich noch einmal mit dem Hören begonnen. Ich denke, das Buch bietet derart viele tolle Inhalte, dass man es wahrscheinlich immer wieder einmal hören kann. Es eignet sich definitiv für Kinder UND Erwachsene. Von meiner Seite her kann ich das Hörbuch nur uneingeschränkt empfehlen und jedem ans Herz legen, der sich auch nur entfernt für Abläufe und Zusammenhänge in der Natur interessiert oder auch gerne die bisherigen Bücher von Peter Wohlleben gelesen hat. Absolute Kauf- und Hörempfehlung, deshalb 5 Sterne.

EIGHT PERFECT MURDERS by Peter Swanson
Eight Perfect Murders - Peter Swanson

Wow! What a story. Malcolm Kershaw made a list of books in which he considered the perfect murders occurred. Now that list is coming back to haunt him.

 

I don't want to say much about this so I don't give anything away. This book grabbed me from the start and did not let go. The ending was wild and is Mal a reliable narrator or not?

Peter Swanson: Eight Perfect Murders
Eight Perfect Murders - Peter Swanson

The latest book from Peter Swanson shows that what you post on the internet can come back to haunt you:

When Malcolm Kershaw first started working at Old Devil's Bookshop he was in charge of the online blog and one of his first posts were books that contained what he believed to the books with perfect unsolvable murders. However, Malcolm gets a huge surprise when an FBI agent enters his bookstore to question the list that he made. She is convinced that someone is using his list to get away with murder and it seems that she is not the only one interested in Malcolm, the killer is out there watching him, knows his history, his secrets. To protect himself Malcolm has to find the killer before he makes his way through the list and exposes everything Malcolm has worked hard to achieve.

STOP!!!!! If you are planning to read some of the great mystery reads from some of the greats just STOP and not read this books as there are spoilers to all of these book:
1. The ABC Murders
2. Strangers on a Train
3. The Red House Mystery
4. Malice Afterthought
5. Double Indemnity
6. The Drowner
7. The Secret History
8. Deathtrap

So even if just one from above is on that list read it first before you read this book. I wish I had known going into this book which books he was talking about and while the narrator does warn of spoilers you don’t know the books until you're already invested in the book.

This is the second book that I have read from Swanson (first book was Her Every Fear) and this book far exceeded the first book that I read by him. The stories are completely different, which I appreciated, and I just found this book way more interesting in main character and story. This is the first bookstore murder that I have read in a long time and I really enjoyed myself. There were a few muddy points along the way, mainly with the FBI/Malcolm dynamic in my opinion (their interactions just seemed odd, almost forced. I know that Malcolm is roped into working the case by the FBI but it was the writing that felt forced) but I really enjoyed the story and it will keep you guessing until the end. I personally did not see all the twists and turns that Swanson throws at you so that always gets bonus points from me. 

I think one of my favourite part of the book is the narration of the book. I like that it is told from only Malcolm's point of view. This works for this book due to the fact that he is the expert in the books from the list. You as the reader also get to know Malcolm really well and the kind of character he is, as well as learning that he has more than one secret in his life and you as the reader are not only trying to solve the murders but also Malcolm's secrets as well.

While this book is extremely clever from start to finish, does it bring anything new to the Mystery genre? No, but it is a good read from start to finish, I just wish is hadn't ruined some books that I had not had a chance to read yet.

Enjoy!!!!
