The Hangman by Louise PennyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
It took me a while to discover Louise Penny and Inspector Gamache, but her books and his story has rapidly become a favorite of mine. I came across this title which is rarely included in the lists of Gamache books so of course, I HAD to read it.
The Hangman is a novella written by Louise Penny and is a part of the Gamache world of books. The story is more straightforward and the characters are not as fully drawn as in her full novels. Don't let that put you off - this book is special for other reasons.
This is a GoodReads Canada book - not to be confused with Goodreads, the social sharing website for things about books. It's a program sponsored by ABC Life Canada, and funded by Canada's Office of Literacy and Essential Skills. The idea is to provide emergent adult and young adult readers with material they will want to read, and to introduce them to authors and series they will want to continue reading as their proficiency increases.
All in all brilliant idea - and the reason I gave this book 5 stars - 3 for the story and 2 bonus stars for the Good Reads program.
