She slammed the book
closed, and threw it across the room. How DARE you end it this way…! She roared.
Susan steamed and
stewed, gazing at the book lying ignominiously on the floor. Elizabeth George had betrayed her. Susan had followed the words through over
six-hundred pages, barely breathing at different points. Susan had been faithful in buying these
tomes, but this was really going too far.
The guilty book, What
Came before He Shot Her, lay quietly on the floor. What a
cruel way to end this…this…mystery… Susan muttered.
She stalked over to
the book and scooped it up. Susan shoved
it into its slot in the bookcase, and then she paused.
Well, maybe I will forgive Elizabeth George this
one time…as she slid the next
book, This Body of Death: An Inspector Lynley Novel, from its
place. But she had better not do it again! All 873 pages and I will be reading each one!!!
Ms. George has published more books since the above shown. Here is her discussion on Careless in Red.
P.S. I will be out and about with my hubby on vacation trips. Please comment! But I won't be able to reply until I find my computer desk again. Thanks! Plus, I am not really angry at Elizabeth George...just...a little maybe.
