A Rule Against Murder by Louise Penny

2.0

It hurts to not love a Gamache book! But this one was just not one I liked much. I ADORED the small little detail of the roof ridge! But the rest...bah. I didn't like the thin motivations, the years and years of hurt over one inconsequential thing that even a child would forget the next day. No, these people could carry hateful grudges over a dropped cookie! 95% of this story was a lot of spite and malice and meanness with no cause I could make sense of. Very thin. And Peter & Clara both act like petulant children for goodness sake. Honestly, I wasn’t rooting for anyone in this story! Maybe except Bean.
