I also love Tana French, and if you want more in that vein, I do recommend Kala by Colin Walsh (but with strong content warnings for sexual assault and violence against animals).

I LOVED KALA. IT WAS BRILLIANT. I can’t believe I didn’t include that on this list. Great call.

After reading only the first line of your review of Freakslaw, I decided I MUST forward this newsletter to my friend Kiki, whose favorite book is Geek Love, and then I wondered if you'd read GL yet, but I merely had to read on... I must admit that I had a hard time with it! Perhaps because a friend was pregnant at the time and we were reading it together and she was traumatized. :0

I also love Tana French, one of my mom's favorite writers. Mom forced me to read Into the Woods, and of course, I was hooked. Thank you for the other crime recs, which I will pass on to my mom as well. :)
