Reading 'Death comes to Pemberley' by P.D. James and admiring how even more than a hundred years after the birth of Sherlock Holmes Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is still the best detective writer out there.

In this book, which is obviously a sequel to 'Pride and Prejudice', a man is killed in the woods. His body is carried to the house, and the doctors examine it. After that they come to the conclusion that he was basically beaten to death. But everybody who is present knows that the witnesses heard several shots. And nobody, just nobody says something like: "Oh, this is bizarre - what about the guns then?" And the reader is simply left to wonder why the characters all of the sudden forgot this fact and nobody seems to be using their brains or at least some common sense. And the story just starts to fall apart, because we are so used to see the work of logic in a detective story (thanks to Conan Doyle and his character) that it is almost impossible to believe in one without it.

🔴HIJOS DE LOS HOMBRES #PDJames @edicionesb_es @penguinlibros ¡EDICIÓN 30° ANIVERSARIO! UN CLÁSICO IMPRESCINDIBLE, VIGENTE Y NECESARIO UNA DISTOPÍA INQUIETANTE Y REVELADORA #HijosDeLosHombres Estamos en 2021. Hace veinticinco años que no nace un solo niño en el planeta tierra. La raza humana se enfrenta a su extinción. Bajo el despótico mandato de Xan Lyppiat, el Guardián de Inglaterra, los viejos viven sumidos en la desesperación y los jóvenes en la crueldad. Theo Faren, primo del Guardián, lleva una vida solitaria, resignado a la época siniestra que le ha tocado. Hasta que el encuentro fortuito con una mujer le lleva a contactar con un grupo de disidentes. De pronto, su vida cambia de manera irrevocable y se ve obligado a tomar decisiones que afectarán al futuro de la humanidad. En el año 1992 se publicaba por primera vez esta distopía icónica para toda una generación. Treinta años después, Hijos de los hombres sigue siendo un estremecedor retrato del mundo que habitamos. 🔴BLOG: peroquelocuradelibros.blogspot.com 🌸 #HoyRecomendamos #Thriller #ThrillerBooks #NovedadEditorial #LecturasDeVerano #NovelaHistorica #LecturasDeVeranoLocuraDeLibros #NovelaNegra #Novela #QueLeer #RecomiendoLeer #Instagram #Books #LecturaRecomendada #Novela2022 #LocuraDeLibros #Lecturas #LecturasRecomendada #LeyendoSiempreYEnCualquierSitio #Books #booktag #bookstagramespaña #booking #bookatreyu #booklover #bookstagram #bookaddict #booklove #feliceslecturas (en Navalmoral de la Mata, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgltP_VjZlL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finished #reading An Unsuitable Job for a Woman by P.D. James. Her first Cordelia Gray novel. Absorbing, in an undemanding way, for the first two-thirds, then veers off badly into preposterous melodrama (and, at the very least, skirting the edges of transphobia), before ending strongly with a gripping confrontation in the final chapter, just when you think it’s all fizzled out a bit #books #crimenovel #pdjames #cordeliagray #fiction https://www.instagram.com/p/CUdceuIsG9s/?utm_medium=tumblr

📚PROJECT UPDATE ■ P. D. James📚 {My Penguin Shorts project went to shit (temporarily) because I'm moving house and I'm leaving my set with Angelina.} I decided to do the complete works of a female writer and picked up P. D. James 🥳 🔍I'm so delighted to discover P. D. James. I know I'm ridiculously late to the party but boy does she spin the plot. Albeit a less remarkable detective but I'm anticipating a strong revival in the series to come (which I'm diligently gonna read). 🔍I love how flawed all the characters are and how obsessed they are with their bourgeois ideals (for their own good) I particularly loved how James addresses a lot of sexist issues in the most subtle manner and yet concludes on a strongly feminist foot. 🔍Looking forward to more (yayyy) #crimefiction #murdermystery #pdjames #absurdereviews #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CO8gb1HLKZU/?igshid=1gn2n57590mtd

Happy Christmas Eve everyone! Today I am relaxing all day while wearing my mistletoe TOES socks 😉 and enjoying The Mistletoe Murder by P. D. James. I hope you are having a peaceful day too because we all deserve it after how busy this month was.

Buongiorno lettori 😊 oggi inizio un libro che ho ricevuto in scambio. Voi comprate solo libri nuovi o anche usati❓ In passato ho già letto un libro di #pdjames e dato che mi era piaciuto ho voluto provare un altro suo libro. #brivididimorteperlispettoredalgliesh è ambientato su un'isola della #cornovaglia su cui è stato trovato morto uno scrittore. È stato trovato impiccato nel faro. #ispettoredalgleish dovrà scoprire la verità. #instabook #librigialli #instabloggers #recensionesulblog #bookbloggercommunity #primaveratrailibri #antrodilibri #inlovewithmysummerreading #libriamoci1 #pilloletralepagine #amicandito #lettureimbranate #bookreview2020 https://www.instagram.com/p/CAe_29OF-Dw/?igshid=6valsknqmvne
