I found it, though, a bit strange to see almost every character in the book feeling that way. <br /><br />But having lived through the aftereffects of a few hurricanes in recent year, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.

The next book I need to read in the series is THE NATURE OF THE BEAST, so I'm a little behind.<br /><br />I can definitely see Jean-Guy becoming Penny's new hero. He's a fine character, but he's no Gamache! I'll miss Gamache if he actually does retire. He's my favorite.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-41824689379907034972020-01-08T18:41:09.996-06:002020-01-08T18:41:09.996-06:00I don't think Armand (I love that name; it was...I don't think Armand (I love that name; it was my maternal grandfather's first name, in fact) is going anywhere soon. I do wonder, though, if Penny is searching for an out for him and if he plans on Beauvoir taking over a new series that would be shared with Gamache.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-1211121364499334742020-01-08T17:05:09.146-06:002020-01-08T17:05:09.146-06:00Hmmm... the last book I read, How the Light Gets I...Hmmm... the last book I read, How the Light Gets In, had him deciding to retire so I'm guessing that doesn't last. Off to the libray tomorrow so will pick up the next book if they have it.

That's why I wonder if Gamache's son-in-law may be heir to a series of his own.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-12748465724628836332020-01-07T17:24:27.721-06:002020-01-07T17:24:27.721-06:00You know a series is good when you stick it out th...You know a series is good when you stick it out through 15 books. :)Lark https://www.blogger.com/profile/13777891312147377769noreply@blogger.com
