What a cool site! New releases are terrific, but sometimes I get in a groove and want to read something similar to what I've enjoyed recently. I love getting recommendations (and not from an algorithm) about books I might like. For example, what British mysteries does Deborah Crombie like to read? Or mysteries set in the Middle East that are recommended by Ausma Zehanat Khan?Ingrid Thofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04063912686011336076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-23238959761107669482018-03-22T13:26:58.556-04:002018-03-22T13:26:58.556-04:00Awesome!!

I've been reading Criminal Element, which is funded by Macmillan, and I've enjoyed their blend of fiction, reviews, etc. There just aren't that many well-edited sites that function as online magazines/watering holes for the genre, so I'm excited to see CrimeReads join in.

...I just subscribed. And I'll find the time. <br /><br />I have a question about the Bechtel test. Right now I'm reading Elizabeth George's latest, in which Lynley has a very small presence. Havers and Isabelle are off together in the wilds of Ludlow, and they're having a ton of conversations. My question is, does talking about a male perp fail the Bechtel test? Or a male victim? There's a lot of that going on. It feels pro-Bechtel to me, but what do I know.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14187856103924954287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-54629179886991416202018-03-22T08:58:07.639-04:002018-03-22T08:58:07.639-04:00I saw this somewhere else (would tell you where bu...I saw this somewhere else (would tell you where but my CRS syndrome is bad today) and subscribed to their briefs.
