Jess Kidds „Mord in der Pension Möwennest“ im Review von Rena Müller auf schreiblust-leselust.de — atmosphärisch, sprachstark, aber nicht ganz so magisch wie frühere Romane der Autorin. 📖

Victorian gothic suspense is not my jam, but after reading Jess Kidd's Nora Breen mysteries, I may have to check this out. Her imagination is huge & her writing so witty & absorbing.

I can't remember a time when I really, really, really wanted an author to write faster. 😄 Read the 1st two of #JessKidd 's Nora Breen mysteries this past week & found out on Wed that she's only just now writing Bk. 3. Meanwhile, LITTLE SPARK, her Victorian gothic suspense, comes out on 8/13.

Over the past year I have begun reading again. I think doing two degrees in literature kind of ran me down! Ha ha ha! It’s great to be back, though. These are my two current books; both are phenomenal. #jeffvandermeer #shriek #jesskidd #thingsinjars #bookworm #booknerd #readingislife📚

Up to chapter 5 of Jess Kidd's MURDER AT GULLS NEST. It's written in 3rd person, present tense. The combination gives it such energy. A "you-are-there" feel. And the MC, ex-nun Nora Breen, has a wry way about her that the writing approach enhances. Fun!

New read: A fun little seaside mystery with an interesting cast of characters, especially the detective, and a good mystery. Must remember to keep an eye open for the next one!

"Then back to the boardinghouse with chapped lips, wild hair, a face like a slapped arse, and a thirst for hot coffee."

Finished Bk 1 of #JessKidd 's Nora Breen series in 2 days. Jumped straight into Bk 2. The above sentence is in the opening paragraph. Just cracking!

Book 2 of Jess Kidd's Nora Breen series: Murder at the Spirit Lounge. A hardcover with striking cover art: a single, not-to-fussy illustration on rich orange background. A seer's crystal ball containing a row of buildings fronting large, leafy trees with a dark sky and rain. The titles & Kidd's name are in the same spare, all-caps black font.

I thoroughly enjoyed #MurderAtTheSpiritLounge by #JessKidd book 2 in the Nora Breen series. It's a cosy crime that will keep you guessing. Ex-nun Nora and DI Rideout are on the case when a seaside psychic is murdered when the DI in the room!

Thanks @netgalley.bsky.social
A crystal ball on a dark purple tablecloth is at the centre, with lit candles on either side and a black cat peeking at you from behind the ball. Purple open drapes melt into the background. The title in black and yellow sit across the top and the authors name in white is across the bottom. In the ball we see a town at the waters edge, silhouetted in shades of purple, a large building in the town is on fire, large yellow and orange flames rise into the air and smoke shoots into the sky. Three birds fly around the column of smoke and flames. The water looks peaceful, moonlit, no-one is in sight.
