  • Mystery books are, by far, my favorite genre. Goohber1 wrote at length below saying the reason he doesn't read mysteries is that he doesn't "understand . . . how the author makes the mystery work". I don't try to over-analyze about the way the writer constructs the story or "who done it". I just go with it and enjoy the ride. I may admire the skill of some authors more than others and consider possibilities, but I don't develop angst while doing something that's supposed to be enjoyable.

  • i don't read much mystery stories because I feel I'm too stupid to understand them or how the authors made the mystery work. i can read the stories fully through to the end, but I'm always lost as to how the author wrote the predicaments work to make the stories "how" they are and why. there's no sure way to find out if I "got it right" or not. & the reviews online r just reviews, not thorough analysis. maybe u know something I don't - a website with not reviews, but thorough analysis, perhaps?

  • @goohber1 thats how i am with mysteries. that and classics, i always feel like there is a hidden metaphor everywhere that end not enjoying the book

  • I have no idea if you read this book or any others from this author but I personally really liked it- Last Lullaby by Denise Hamilton

  • so many books, so little time

  • I also love mysteries and I have almost every single novel by Dame Agatha Christie and Baroness P.D. James.

  • Where is your Agatha Christie section??? :D

  • books are a part of life,there always there when you need them,pick up a book in stead of wattching t.v.. if you wanna create a movie of your own,pick up a book,you can be the Director,actor.score artist and Special effects to life.

  • Does anyone know if they have a website or a page here on youtube to get in contact with them. I have read some really good books but I've never forgoten to eat. LOL..... :)

  • Mystery books are simple for me to deciper. I can usually predict was is going to happen when I'm first introduced to the characters and their behaviors toward each other. I suppose you can say I read into the psychology of it.

    I can tell when a character is too agreeable, that's usually the one that's going to squeal in the end or responsible for the murder because he or she wants their tracks covered.

  • i´d love to live there!

    *o*

  • You need almost exactly 50 years to read 18.000 books when you finish one every day...

  • They own over 18,000 mystery books. They finished 3. :]

    The beauty of a mystery books isn't, their lameass feedback, but it's the conclusion and the process. Every detail has to be taken into account and you have to emulsify it into a conclusion.

    It's friggin' hard when you've just briefly flipped over pages just once. That's the challenge, that's the beauty. You get the answer wrong, next book let's try it again!

    Once, you're close. Next you get the answer right. That's the kix.

  • So, they have over 18,000 novels, but they are still using double negatives?!

  • Check out the series of Kurt Wallander mysteries by Henning Mankell: Swedish detective stories/police procedurals. Really different and a good read.

  • yeah i've read one of those they are pretty awesome
