Crime

[close] Mar 2016/ Apr 2016 Group Reads - The Boy in the Suitcase by Lena Kaaberbol and Broken by Karin Fossum _ _ _ _ _ “It was a dark and stormy night. Lightning flashed and thunder rolled across the sky. Rain spattered a mysterious, hooded stranger who peered over the hedgerow at the darkened, quiet house.” Do lines like these quicken your heartbeat and pique your interest? Then Welcome to the Mystery, Crime and Thriller Group! This is the place for you. Join our intrepid moderators, “DCI” Donna, “Sherlock” Hayes, Nancy “Drew”, and “Cat Burglar” Bill as we read and discuss our favourites, recommend new authors and explore the Genre. This is the meeting place for readers to discuss their favourites and recommend new authors, and the place for budding and established mystery, crime and thriller writers to introduce us to their efforts. You can travel into the past to discover great characters like Sherlock Holmes, Inspector Maigret and others; journey around the world to other countries and meet Aussie Phryne Fisher, Norwegian Harry Hole and so many others; just relax on your couch and experience the wonders of Hercule Poirot, Lord Peter Wimsey, etc; or hard-boiled, tired gumshoes like Travis McGee and Kinsey Milhone. Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the wonderfully varied world that is Mystery, Crime and Thrillers. Join us and have a great time! Your Moderators: Donna, Hayes, Bill and Nancy.

[close] We read, we talk, we joke, we might curse, we discuss mainly YA/Contemporary/Fantasy/Supernatural books. You can often find us being weird and crazy, fangirling over characters & stories that are real (TO US THEY ARE!).
