I think my feed reader’s on the blink again. I’ve never read John Connolly, but I see that I must. Thank you for the lovely review!

Emily, Mr. Bingley is a perfect name for a daschund! I’m sure you and he and Boswell will get along swimmingly.

Emily B, oh yes, you must read this one. I think you will love it.

Daphne, it is a hoot of a book. Congrats on your sort of TBR list ;)

Lua, Boswell was a fun addition and of course I couldn’t help but be concerned about him because he is in peril numerous time.

Dorothy, at first I was worried that a book with Samuel Johnson and Boswell would be a groan-fest, but it thankfully turned out to be quite fun.

Iliana, it was really fun and would be a perfect read for Carl’s RIP Challenge come the fall.
