Mom Among The Liars de James Yaffe
finished this little series, and enjoyed it very much.
I thought that this sounded like fun - a murder mystery that wasn't so dark that an elderly woman couldn't solve it behind the scenes with logic. I love logic.
Yes, it was that. But somehow it was just 'meh'.
Yes, it was that. But somehow it was just 'meh'.
reminiscent of Agatha Christie's Jane Marple. Mom solves the murders by listening and deducting and understanding human nature. Not sure I agreed with her final analysis of the case....
Description of American Jewish life today. Emphasis is on candid contradictions, with a rich sense of the endowments and neuroses of this emphatically idiosyncratic tribe.
