I'm always up for way to push my vintage mysteries. I've opted for my review of The Leavenworth Case by Anna Katherine Green. This mystery is one of the first full-length mystery novels by a woman--published 9 years before The Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle!
Mystery Lover...but overall a very eclectic reader. Will read everything from the classics to historical fiction. Biography to essays. Not into horror or much into YA. If you would like me to review a book, then please see my stated review policy BEFORE emailing me. Please Note: This is a book blog. It is not a platform for advertising.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.
If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
I'm always looking for mysteries to read. This sounds very interesting and very cool that she's something of a trail blazer in the mystery genre. I'm a new follower!
ReplyDeleteThe Leavenworth Case definitely sounds like something I should check out. Thanks for a great recommendation.

ReplyDeleteThis week I reviewed a work of suspense fiction that is such a wide departure from the thriller genre that I feel everyone – fans and foes of the genre alike – really should investigate.
