Series Redux: Fetherings

So I’ve read another couple of books in the Fetherings series recently, and it’s another series that’s really easy to read at this time of year – small town murder mysteries at the seaside make for perfect autumnal reading somehow. So this is another Simon Brett series – and has the same sort of humour and murder mix that you get in Charles Paris and Mrs Pargeter but this time with a duo at the centre in neighbours Carole and Jude and their contrasting personalities. I’m about a dozen into the series now and the setting are still pretty varied but with enough call backs to previous books and developments to make them fun if you’re binging, but not so many that you can’t just pick them up and carry on.

They’re also very bingeable – so if you can get hold of them it’s very easy to run through them at speed, but they do sometimes have a bit of a price issue – I can read them in a couple of hours and that effects how much I’m willing to pay!

Anyway, have a great weekend everyone.
