A review by jennybeastie
The Hangman by Louise Penny
I was so confused about this novella -- reading it, I was having a hard time even believing it had been written by Louise Penny, because it was so different from the main series -- short, declarative sentences. No veering into the emotional lives of the main characters. No mention of the ruction between Gamache and Beauvoir. It's like alternative universe Louise Penny.
However! Some of the other reviewers mention that it was created specifically "as an "easy reader" for adults with reading difficulties." and the light came on -- that makes so much sense, and what a cool project. So I'm not going to star it, because all the stars for the project, but only a couple of stars for the series continuation, and when I have a conflict like that I just don't rate it at all. I am really glad this exists, and I think even more kindly on L.P. for giving back to the community in this way.
