BOOK PUBLICATION DAY: Deadly Camargue by Cay Rademacher

Deadly Camargue by Cay Rademacher

My rating: ⭐⭐⭐/5

QOTD: Who is your favorite painter/artist?

My Review:
What does the murder of a rice mogul, the theft of a van Gogh Painting, and the gruesome death of a journalist by bull impalement have in common? You will have to read this awesome detective novel to find out. Capitaine Blanc is on a case which will look in the past and present. What appears to be an accident, smells like murder to him.

I was attracted to this book because of its van Gogh connection. I am a big fan of the artist and I am always interested to read stories where he is involved (in some way). This detective novel is intelligent and gripping. There are so many clues and many suspects.

This novel is the second book in the Provence Mystery Series. I love all the French references and landscapes. If you like Agatha Christie books, you will like this one.

A big thank you to Minotaur Book and St. Martin’s Publishing Group of my advanced reader’s copy of this awesome detective story. Deadly Camargue by Cay Rademacher is now available at your favorite bookstore.

Review: The Last Love Note by Emma Grey

The Last Love Note  by  Emma Grey My rating:  3 of 5 stars In THE LAST LOVE NOTE by Emma Grey, I embarked on a journey filled with conflicting emotions. Despite my initial eagerness to delve deeper into the narrative, the unexpected weightiness of the prose caught me off guard. The narrative's frequent jumps in timeline, especially in audiobook format, proved disorienting and challenging to follow. However, Leeanna Walsman's narration was outstanding, rescuing the experience with her excellent delivery. The novel grapples with poignant themes, exploring the profound ideas of seizing life's moments and nurturing hope amid pain. Yet, occasional forced dialogue and slapstick humor felt incongruent with the somber tone. Nevertheless, the commendable growth of the characters and the author's skill in infusing joy and hope into a challenging narrative make it a worthwhile read. While my personal experience may differ, many readers have found this book highly enjoyable, so I e...

Review: Every Note Played

Every Note Played by Lisa Genova My rating: 5 of 5 stars I want to thank NetGalley and Simon & Schuster Canada for granting me an advanced copy of the Every Note Played book by Lisa Genova. Lisa Genova, author of "Still Alice" and "Inside the O'Briens", delivers yet another masterpiece. Every Note Played is a novel which addresses the devastating effect of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) on a celebrated pianist and his family. ALS (a.k.a. motor neuron disease (MND) or Lou Gehrig's disease) causes the death of neurons controlling voluntary muscles. Over time, as the muscles of the body break down, someone living with ALS loses the ability to walk, talk, eat, swallow, and eventually breathe. At 45, Richard is diagnosed with ALS. His career is over and he has no one to turn to for help. Karina, his ex-wife, driven by guilt, becomes his reluctant caretaker. This endeavour is more than she bargains for, and both she and Richard are faced w...
