The Nightingale Before Christmas

The Nightingale before Christmas by Donna Andrews

3 stars

Fluffy and forgettable. It wasn’t until a chapter or so into the book that I remembered I’d read others in this series.

The Tomb of Zeus by Barbara Cleverly

3 stars

I enjoyed the historical archaeology, but found the suicide storyline hard to deal with. Once again, unbelievable romance.

The Man in the Brown Suit

The Man in the Brown Suit by Agatha Christie

2 stars

I was surprised to run across this book, as I thought I’d read all of Agatha Christie’s mysteries. Unfortunately, I wasn’t too thrilled. The romance was rushed and unbelievable. The casual racism was period-appropriate, I guess, but still bothered me.
