The Burglar Who Thought He Was Bogart by Lawrence Block

4.0

The Burglar books are all fun to read, but I think Bogart and Mondrian are my favorites in the series. Bernie is a well-read used-bookstore owner by day, and a burglar with a heart of gold (sort of) by night. He solves mysteries on the side, since a dead body just happens to show up every place he robs. Since he's not a murderer, he has to discover who is to prove his innocence. Luckily one of his friends is a corrupt cop who gives him some freedom to move around. Lawrence Block is an incredibly witty writer, so even if the mysteries sometimes get a little convoluted, they are always enjoyable.
