One also has to sympathise with her honest assessment of her skills as a governess. When I read about Miss Pettigrew I could feel only pity, I almost cried at one point when her old coat was mentioned and how she hasn’t had a decent meal for a while. As you can see the story line is not overly complicated, but the execution is exquisite. Together they spend a wonderful and glamorous day, Miss Pettigrew saving Delysia from trouble more than once. From there on ensues a series of misunderstandings, but from the get go Miss Pettigrew sides with lovely Delysia, amazed by her lifestyle but also her generosity. ![]() Miss Pettigrew is desperate to find work as a governess and her agency sends her by mistake to the apartment of Delysia LaFosse.

There were a few good moments here and there, but at the average price of $3.99 an issue, I feel the need for there to be more than moments in any comic book nowadays. I read the article on the other side of the link JD.Īpparently the movie is casting the Splits in a role similar to the Scooby Gang, but I'm uncertain how they might be presenting the murders, a crime those "meddling kids and their dog" never tackled.īut overall, in my humble opinion, except for Future Quest, DC's H-B revival attempts have been pretty banal so far. DC's non-edgy, true-to-the-source versions of the Scooby Gang (not the gritty version) seem to be their biggest success with H-B characters. !

Every moment is important and there is something about the way it is written that doesn’t let you tear your eyes away. The story never feels boring or slows down. After the introductory roll call, Mac discovers the note left behind by Connor and we are off to the races. We are introduced to the final victim’s four best friends, including our protagonist, Mac. The book begins by catching us up on what happened a year before when a serial killer claimed four victims then seemingly disappeared. From the creepy ocean town to the unlikely group of friends, this book hit all the marks I needed and was so nostalgic to me but still felt so modern and fresh. Hold on, I’ll make it a little bit more clear for y’all: I am head over heels in love with this novel.įor years, I have desperately searched for a book that captures the tone and spirit of my favorite 90s slasher film, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and I’ve finally found it. As soon as I finished, I wanted to read it again. I’m usually all in for murder mysteries from the get-go because the ones I choose are usually trashy and easy to just melt into. ![]() I had no idea what I was in for when I started this book. ![]() ![]() ![]() Cherry's training at the Spencer Hospital School of Nursing is chronicled in the first two books.
