kristykay22 's review for:

The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammett

4.0

---

I really love me some hard-boiled crime fiction. Having seen the movie, I knew what to expect in terms of the mystery, and Hammett's detailed writing makes reading the book almost like watching a movie, making the two inseparable. The man can describe a woman walking across a room and make it the most interesting thing you've ever heard. A classic.
