Eleanor Luhar (47 KP) rated The Mistletoe Murder and Other Stories in Books
Jun 24, 2019
It's getting a bit late to post these festive reviews so I'll keep it short. It's only a short book, anyway.
This book contains four short stories, all crime/detective tales, starting with The Mistltoe Murder. My personal favourite was the final story, The Twelve Clues of Christmas. Every story was great, though, and A Very Commonplace Murder was particularly surprising.
James manages to include a fantastic little hint/twist at the end of the stories, changing your whole perception on what you've just read. This made the crimes so much more interesting and real. They were relatively simple crimes - stabbings, poisoning - but there's always a lot more going on under the surface than you'd expect.
A fantastic little collection, with a foreword by Val McDermid too. 4 stars.

Just watched the first two episodes on Disney plus thru star there adult section and so far so good it's on the short side just over half an hour per episode could have been longer extra ten mins that's my only complaint. On two the show itself all three leads are Brilliant especially martin and short who've been working together for so they have great chemistry just comic timing and there's selena gomez finally doing something more adult than those disney channel type shows she's used to doing. Overall I shall be watching this everyweek to find out who the is as well. Also I'm just as bad when it comes to listening to podcasts I like on occasion to listen to true crime podcast aswell

The unfortunate truth about MLMs and direct sales
If you are thinking about joining an MLM or a direct marketing company, listen to this podcast first. Great production value. Great journalism.

Loved it completely. This series gets better and better. Only thing I should have done was read a couple of short stories before this one. Otherwise loved loved loved. :) Cannot wait for the next one.

DNF for me at 22%
Although plenty happens there just seems to be lacking anticipation and excitment, there's just no emotion and so, life is to short to continue a book your just not enjoying.

It seems to have had an effect by taking on his techniques even in a short period of time. Currently cannot give 5 star until I can be sure it's worked but we will see.
