THIS WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: Do you have any particular “quirks” when it comes to reading (eg. taking notes while reading, etc)?

I'm trying to keep up with the blog memes I enjoy.

Right now I am reading, The Last Dinner Party by Carly M. Duncan. I was supposed to review it this month, but my reading time is a lot less than it used to be a couple of years ago. I'm hoping to increase it a bit this year. 

What I have read of this one so far is fascinating. The author is currently on a virtual book tour. You can check out her tour schedule here.




Description:

When Jeanie D'Alisa is found murdered in her bedroom after hosting a dinner party in her home, detectives Anna Cole and Kristy Hicks are called to investigate the crime. Known within her community for her generous, yet unpredictable nature, Jeanie's secrets unfold as family, friends and neighbors become suspects. Anna and Kristy discover stamped passport pages revealing travels unknown and a curious relationship between Jeanie and the charming salesman who frequents the apartment building. Meryl, Jeanie's devoted and needy friend, further complicates the investigation when she phones Jeanie's sister who is studying abroad and lies to her about the cause of death. Through a muddied pool of misdirection and betrayal, will Anna and Kristy be able to assemble the clues in order to bring Jeanie's killer to justice? The path to solving the mystery becomes tangled with faces of loved ones who are revealed to be foes in this story about the lengths people will go to in order to save themselves.
