Hi, I'm Rhonda and there is nothing like reading a great mystery. I've been a mystery fan for years so this book will be right up my alley. I've participated in the past few first looks and look forward to this one.

Hello Everyone!  My name is Kim and I am from New Hampshire.  This is my first FL book and I am excited to get started.  A friend of mine has been telling me about these books for a while now and I finally got in one one!  Yeah!  I love all kinds of books but tend to enjoy the suspense genre the most.

Hi,

My name is Sharon "Denice" Ferrell and I was so excited about this book and the fact that it was going to be a mystery that I put the information in my datebook to make sure that I remembered to sign up.  I live in Piedmont, Oklahoma which is northwest of Oklahoma City.  I wish I had the book because of all the ice and snow that we got on Thursday.  Today is the first day I was able to get out of the house.  I am really looking forward to getting to know people through a book.  Thanks for a great book!

It is good to meet another Agatha Christie fan! I also love the getting CD's of the British TV series about her detectives. Poirot is my favorite. David Suchet is excellent!

Hi everyone, I'm Kris from NW NJ and mysteries are one of my favorite genres to read. Nancy Drew Mysteries were the first books I read and really enjoyed as a pre-teen. I tried to get my pre-teen daughters interested in Nancy Drew books, but no luck, not with Twilight around. We did enjoy the movie that came out a year or two ago.

Looking forward to another great  First Look. Thanks BN and Paul

I'm Gaby, a lawyer/book blogger living in Brooklyn. I love mysteries and have read them avidly since I was young.  Started out with my uncle's old Agatha Christies, and I keep going back to them. I'm very excited that we're doing a mystery this time. 

I've very much enjoyed the B&N First Look discussions and am glad to find books and authors that I normally wouldn't have learned about and to hear what everyone else thinks of the book.  Thank you to the author, publisher and to Barnes & Noble for sponsoring this FL Book Club.

Glad to be part of the group!

Gaby

[Donna-readerin…]

Hi everybody!!  I'm Donna from Lancaster WI and I am THRILLED to be part of this First Look selection!  I try to carefully choose the First Look selections I want to read.  If it's not something I'm going to really like, not my genre, I don't want to deprive someone else from the chance to participate!  The second I saw "Mystery" I knew this one was a must do!!  I'm looking forward to beginning what sounds like a great book!!

[DSaff]

me too   They are really getting fast at this. <loving it!> THANK YOU, Paul and everyone at B&N!!!

I see many of you have your confirmations. I followed the directions right at 7am and still have not received a confirmation.  What have I done wrong?
