Book Review | Felicity Carrol and the Murderous Menace by Patricia Marcantonio

 
Publication Date: February 10th 2020 by Crooked Lane Books
Format: Netgalley ARC
Target Audience: Adult

GoodreadsWaterstonesBlackwells

 

Felicity Carrol would rather be doing just about anything other than attending balls or seeking a husband. What she really wants to do is continue her work using the latest forensic methods and her photographic memory to help London police bring murderers to justice, so when her friend, Scotland Yard Inspector Jackson Davies, weak from injury, discovers a murder in a wild mining town in Montana that echoes the terrible crimes in England, Felicity decides to go herself.

In Placer, Montana, her first obstacle is handsome lawman Thomas Pike, who uses his intuition as much as his Colt in keeping law and order in this unruly town. When the murderer strikes again, Felicity begins to suspect Davies is correct: Jack the Ripper has come to America. Felicity sets out to find the killer in a town chock full of secrets, shadows, and suspects, but as the body count rises, this intrepid sleuth faces her most dangerous adversary yet—and discovers that not all killers are as they seem.

Netflix Recommendations | Part 1

I go through periods where I just want to binge watch everything that Netflix has to offer and for the last few months that's exactly what I've been doing. Netflix have really been prepared for this whole pandemic situation because they have been releasing tv shows and movies left, right and center. I can't believe how much new content they have, there seems to be a new selection every other week or so. I'm not complaining though because I love how much choice there is and how there's something for every mood I have. 

I decided I wanted to start highlighting some of the shows and films that I've been consuming over on the platform and give someone else some ideas of where to start with their next binge. This is a selection of what I've been enjoying over the last two months and hopefully I'll be able to do these types of posts every couple of months or so when I've logged more hours.

Top Ten Tuesday | I Really Wish I Had These Characters Jobs

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature that highlights ten books that all relate to a certain topic and is  hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This Weeks Topic Is...

Characters Whose Job I Wish I Had and I love this prompt because there's nothing better then imagining yourself in all kinds of crazy occupations. Books always seem to have the best career choices for their characters because let's face it, all rules are just thrown out the window when it comes to fiction. Somehow I didn't go to crazy with my choices (I stopped myself from adding the obvious book store owner or librarian) but these are jobs that in an alternate life I could definitely see myself enjoying. Even if it's just for the amount of time it takes for me to read the book!

#5OnMyTBR | Retellings

This meme was created by E. @ Local Bee Hunter's Nook and you can find the announcement post here. Also, side note, these aren't necessarily books that I own physically but they're all on my Goodreads TBR and they'll mostly be the five most recently added.  

This Week's Prompt is...

Retellings and for once all of these books are actually on my owned TBR! Hallelujah! I absolutely love retellings, they are some of my favourite types of book to read and I find it so intriguing how an author can rewrite a classic story into something new.
