Mystery
Case History #2 is the story of a young girl who is brutally murdered in her father's law office. Theo, her father approaches Jackson to find the killer after 10 years has gone by.
Case History #3 is the story of a young wife, Michelle who murders her husband.
All these stories are intertwined ingeniously by Atkinson. Jackson, the private investigator is a sucker for the sad stories. He tries hard not to get involved in Amelia's and Julia's jealousies and insecurities, tries hard not to be Theo's main attention and tries hard not to get involved with Shirley, Michelle's sister. Of course, he does get involved
I loved Jackson. He is a hard-warming man who is undergoing a divorce. The stories although all separate at first slowly get intertwined but I felt that Case # 3 was a little weak.
First Line: "How lucky were they?"

OHHHH
This is a juicy blog. I love all of the books you have reviewed and I wonder how you choose what to read and review?
I'm looking up the Coupland book now.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Speaking for myself, I have so many books here that it's a matter of selecting something that I either feel the urge to read, have had around the house for too long, or think someone else would enjoy so I can pass it on to them.
Thanks for visiting!
Personally, I try to read a wide variety of genres. Otherwise I tend to get bored. I read other people's blogs and put some well-loved ones at the top of my TBR list
