As mentioned last week, books are, no surprise, my favorite things to talk about, and I get asked for recommendations all of the time. I've started a reading section on the Turn the Page website (https://www.turnthepagebookcoaching.com/reading-nook), but I will continue sharing some of those recommendations here.
This week, let's talk about BOOKS WITH CREATIVE, INVENTIVE PACING:
All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda
Nicolette Farrell left her rural hometown soon after her best friend Corinne’s disappearance – she is back, however, to care for her ailing father and tie up loose ends. A murder occurs, and before she knows it, she is pulled back into the mystery of what happened Corrine, family drama, and a burgeoning reunion with an old flame. The twist – the story is told backwards.

Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz
Another treat for Christie fans, and mystery lovers in general. Book editor Susan Ryeland receives the manuscript of author Alan Conway’s latest crime novel, and assumes it will be just like all of his previous bestsellers. How wrong she is! The more she reads the story (the story within the story!), the more she begins to suspect that all might not be fiction. A truly delightful read.

Eight Perfect Murders by Peter Swanson
This is a perfect book for mystery lovers, especially Agatha Christie devotees. Years ago, bookseller Malcolm Kershaw put together a list of the mystery genre’s most unsolvable murders. Now the owner of the Old Devils Bookstore in Boston, he is shocked when an FBI knocks on his door – she wants his help in investigating a series of murders, murders that seem to mirror those on Malcolm’s old list. Worried about becoming a suspect himself, he begins doing his own investigation, which brings up major skeletons from his past – and brings the killer out of the shadows. Brilliantly paced and plotted.
