Fun Friday French Twist by James Patterson

 

French Twist- James Patterson (book shots)


This book starts with clever patterns emerging in the murder cases, but quickly spins off into another direction. I keep it all in mind as I first believed there is a connection, although not, as yet clear, if any.

At the beginning I thought in such a short book any deviation from the first case takes up space where the first investigation could take place.


After chapter 12 I felt there was 2 cases going on and couldn’t figure out why. Then it got worse as it got too tragic and too graphic for my liking. Luckily it was such a short piece it was over quickly.


There is however, a lot of depth in this book, there is a lot crammed into one short book. With regard to the ‘friend’ relationship between detectives Luc Moncrief and Katherine Burke it is amusing to read Inspector Elliott’s views on it. The interaction between the characters make this book a great read.


At the end of this book I get it. We have the murder cases and the private lives of the detectives Luc and Katherine interweaved to make an ending that is as inevitable as it is unexpected


The book is a journey to a destination wherever that may be.


I read this book in one afternoon it was for me a great read and I couldn’t put it down once I had started to read it.


Thank you for reading

Fun Friday Kids Lovejoy

  I thought the same. So, where is she? If Lovejoy (Ian McShane) says ‘He will get one’ I suppose he will. I suppose, I would say, it depends on what you paid for a painting a nice ‘Fake’ at a fake price is fine, but if you pay a genuine price tag, then you could be out of pocket/at a loss. A mother is a mother so that covers all. A chain is forming. I am glad he was ‘Word perfect’ With a compliment to Lovejoy, not that ‘Old’ then. All these rhetorical questions. These are amusing to hear. ‘George?’ so funny. A coincidence, the same outfit, oh dear. Sweet.  Oh, for the best, Ibelieve. ‘Closed’. That is good. Oh that, well at least the deal was done.

Fun Friday Love Knots Lovejoy

  It is nice to hear about the history of a collectible antique as we very rarely get to know where or why things are as they are. I really feel for Jane (Phyllis Logan) and it is sad that Alex (Pavel Douglas) is saying all the wrong things. Also I agree he should be around more for her to ask. That was good timing. I do feel for Jane it is horrible to watch. Just as Tinker (Dudley Sutton) was talking about travelling in his dreams . i thought of the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang where Grandpa Potts (Lionel Jeffries) did most of his travelling through daydreaming and all of sudden Tinker spots a character in the auction room called Potts (Tony Caunter). This is a completely surprising coincidence. Now we hear Tinker talk about the interesting messages left and things are getting heated in the auction room. I don’t like that he stopped bidding either, it is disappointing to watch. That is a big dog. So funny poor Lovejoy (Ian McShane) sit down. That is one spoilt dog and that is an u...

Fun Friday Eric Of Arabia Lovejoy

  It is an eye opener and quite true, can something be classed as original when parts have been replaced due to wear and tear?. This part reminded me of the TV program Only Fools And Horses with David Jason. Where the character Trigger (Roger Lloyd Pack) was going to get an award for having the same broom whilst working. This would have been fine if he hadn’t revealed that the broom had had so many new heads and so many new handles. Lovejoy’s (Ian McShane) take on this is not quite so amusing but works for the episode. This bike business is now getting amusingly action packed and cringingly dubbed. What a find. Very useful.  Not the music again. Fascinating stuff. Thank you for reading Sandra
