The purpose of the Pick of the Month meme, hosted by Kerrie at Mysteries in Paradise, is to identify our crime fiction best read for each particular month. You can click HERE to find the contributions of other fellow bloggers.
For my part I have reviewed three crime fiction books in April 2012, but no doubt quality compensates for quantity.
But it’s not fair to compare acclaimed authors and new talent. Therefore I have decided to choose Phantom the Best Novel, Legend (authors with 9+ books published) and declare a tie between A Dark Redemption and Where the Devil Can’t Go, for the Best Novel, New Voice (authors with 1-3 books published).
I’ve read THE PHANTOM too Jose Ignacio. A worthy recipient of your award, but the others look tempting too.
It seems to me, having read Maxine post, that we do have and excellent batch of books this month, Kerrie.
Yes, we do seem to have a lot of riches this month. Great choice of best novel, Jose Ignacio (“there’s something about Harry”…..;-) ) and I think your runners-up are very worthy choices, too.
And this year International Dagger has a lot of richies too, Maxine.
Good choices Jose. I have the Anya Lipska to read.
Thank you Sarah, Will love to read your review.
José Ignacio – You’ve made excellent choices for this month, I think. There are lots of good books out there from which to choose, but I think you did it quite well.
We can’t complain Margot, there are certainly lots of good books this year.
I am looking forward to reading the Lipska and the Nesbo – I did enjoy the Sherez one too.
Hope you’ll enjoy them too, Bernadette.
