Rules for Perfect Murders

Loved that book. It is really well written, i really enjoyed the concept of murders being based of real crime novel books. The plot twist at the end really caught me off guard because I also was thinking like Malcolm about who may be Charlie. This book really deserves my 5 star rating because it really made me want to read the books mentioned. *would definitely recommend again and again*

Ich habe dieses Hörbuch gehört während ich krank war, was meine Bewertung beeinflussen könnte. Eigentlich fand ich die Idee der Geschichte spannend, jedoch konnte ich nie wirklich mit der Hauptfigur mitfiebern und ich konnte die Auflösung einiges vorher erahnen. Dennoch gab es einige spannende und unterwartete Wendungen, wodurch die Geschichte spannend blieb.

3 stars because I like the writing of Peter Swanson. From another author I might have given only 2 stars or less. You can feel that the book is meant to be a love letter to classical crime novels like Agatha Christie. Somehow I it tries to interest the reader to look up some of the classics but atvthe same time reveals already the endings. And the mystery of the book itself is quite slow, not very suspenseful or surprising. I will keep reading Peter Swansons books but this one was quite disappointing.
