But because Malcolm doesn’t really connect with people, I never really connected with them either. The lack of knowledge about most of the books, however, did not dampen my enjoyment of the book – as someone who’s fine with spoilers, I enjoyed reading about these books and how they could be reinterpreted into actual killings.Īs for characters, I thought Malcolm was pretty interesting! He has a tragic backstory and I thought the way the book wove his past into the murders was interesting. Milne’s Red House Mystery is on my TBR list, but that’s about it. That, by the way, is probably the only book on the list that I’ve read – I’ve read Anthony Berkeley, but not Malice Aforethought, and A.A. The entire plot revolves around famous mysteries, such as the ABC Murders. This is definitely a book for fans of the mystery genre. Rules for Perfect Murders stars Malcolm, a bookseller who wanted to be an amateur detective and now finally gets the chance to be one when the FBI approaches him with a ludicrous sounding theory: someone seems to be killing according to a list of books he wrote years ago. But basically what I wanted to say is that I’ve been meaning to read this for a while! I didn’t borrow Rules for Perfect Murders earlier because I was looking for the paperback copy in the library, but since I won’t be stepping foot in the library for a while, I decided to just borrow the ebook.
This is one of the books that have been on the TBR for over a year, which… is actually not that long compared to other books.
