Retired I am a book reader, reviewer & blogger but am interested in many things ! Ex-law centre (20 years !) so social welfare law is one of those things

@ArmchairSleuth Black, free people in Louisiana before slavery was abolished. Good stuff

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth It is a great book.

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

And finally, for #MurderEveryMonday, some other words in titles associated with funerals

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

#MurderEveryMonday
Some more funeral words in these titles

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

And now you have your body contained where are you going to bury it? #MurderEveryMonday

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

#MurderEveryMonday What we need for our funeral is, of course, something to put the body in. Here are two options, one older and one newer

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

For #MurderEveryMonday we are looking for words in book titles connected with funerals.

Agatha Christie starts us off

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth I haven't read it yet!!

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@LWestwoodAuthor I discovered that much of my crime fiction was more modern than that, and often more modern than I thought it was

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

For #MurderEveryMonday we are looking for crime fiction originally published in 1955.

Extensive research (mainly Google) has informed me that I own only two books which meet this criterion.

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

And finally, for #MurderEveryMonday, I have a book title which is very specific indeed about size

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

Size matters for #MurderEveryMonday. Here are some larger ones

Great, long, deep and big.

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

We are, for #MurderEveryMonday, looking today for words in titles denoting size

Here are short, little and small to start with

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@SuitcaseDet They are some of my favourites because they are always fun to reread.

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

#MurderEveryMonday More series sleuths depicted on covers. Amelia Peabody and Vera are small but present

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth I have only read this one, but I have a few more in the pile. It was okay but not great, in my view, although I did like the fact that the heroine is an ecologist (but was exasperated that she was titled,,,)

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth Her crime novels feature a book editor living in London. I like them. There are only four. I also own a lot of her non-fiction.

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth They have been my salvation this week

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth Yes but no need to be slavish to the sequence. Best to read the first one first though - Crocodile on the Sandbank.

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

@ArmchairSleuth Not one of her best

[Anne @AnneIsReading]

Finally, some bigger animals found in zoox
