![]() ![]() ![]() Our fearless leader, Kathy, and I were discussing whether or not you need to read the series in order. If you don't love Jackson in all of his confused, grumpy, depressed, but clearly trying to be a better person and a better father to his now 2 kids, glory, you will not enjoy these books. ![]() Looking back, SETMD also has the same set-up and style as all the Brodie novels: missing girls, multiple storylines, with one told as flashbacks, with a slow convergence of these plot threads over the course of the book. Like the first 4, SETMD can be loosely described as a crime novel, but it is more nuanced than that. Started Early, Took My Dog (herein SETMD) is the latest Atkinson book featuring Jackson Brodie. I can sit back and relax when I read an Atkinson book because I trust that she will lead me in the right direction. What I love about her is that she writes complex, layered stories, but always manages to bring every last thread back together in a smart, interesting, and satisfactory way. No matter what she writes, I know I will enjoy it. Kate Atkinson is one of my personal sure bet authors. ![]()
