susieliston 's review for:

Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz
3.0

Pretty good. A mystery novel about the writing of a mystery novel which we also get to read. I actually liked that story-within-the-story best. The "outer" story seemed to go on too long, losing tension in the process. (And I wasn't completely sold on that part's denouement, either.) But it showed some creativity, which I appreciate.
