Review: The Liar in the Library by Simon Brett

The Liar in the Library The Liar in the Library by Simon Brett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Such cozy cute mystery. I was actually transported to the age of non voilent , slowly unwrapping , investigative stories of gone by era. Loved the realistic characterization of the leading ladies and all the other cast.

I could not understand some of the literary references but the way the author included the working of the publishing industry and the life in a small town , its too charming. After a while I was more engrossed in knowing about the library , the conversations more than finding the killer. Ooh and the title is much clever. I am going to soon check previous books by Simon.

Thanks Natgalley for giving me a chance to read this book.

India reads - Online Book rental Library

No , this is not about what and how much our country reads :P

This is about the Online bookstore & library : INDIAreadshttp://www.indiareads.com/

I joined this library last week for the sole purpose to save money on buying books ( yes, I can file bankruptcy with my dad if I do not stop )

I would really recommend this library to all ( provided they deliver to your city ) but definitely for NCR & metro cities.

The plans are very decently priced.

I have taken a 2 books per month plan for 6 months. so that is 1200 for 12 books in next 6 months and no late fee ( yes , i used a lot of time and brain on this maths before I picked a plan)

Oh, did I tell you , they have at home delivery and pick up of books.

Yes, they do not have ALL recent books but the library still has enough books that will interest and average reader. Also you can ask for a book if it is not in the list.

Moreover the delivery packaging was really good. Not just 2 books handed to you. The books were wrapped well in a paper bag with your name and address mentioned. Also, since you are bound to tear off and throw the paper bag mostly , they also provided a empty paper bag addressed to INDIAreads in which you can keep the books when returning. I so liked it :D

The site is easy to navigate and the customer care is really friendly.

No, I have not been paid for this post. but, WTH ! I am just trying to help :D

Online or not , I have special love for libraries.
