mystery reader discussion skip to main skip to sidebar mystery reader discussion to discuss mystery writers mystery books and characters in mysteries disclaimer sometimes i may stray sunday october 2 2011 one voice too many one voice too many was written by paul martin miller it is a psychological thriller not a typical mystery i usually read it was an interesting story the main character was a carpenter named jeremy walker who starts his day with an internal conflict about something he has read he is on the way to work when he gets caught in a traffic jam at this point he begins doing something very odd he walks away from his truck and seems to wander back in the direction he came reason unknown he seems to be disconnected with the world outside of himself finally he goes to a restaurant to get something to eat and he seems to have a breakdown the police come and end up taking him to a hospital they call his ex wife to let her know what has happened and since she appears to be the only known family he has at this point the focus of the story takes a shift to explore what has lead up to this point the story tells how jeremy was a lonely man who had been married twice before he was divorced from his first wife and he lost his second wife she presumably was killed in an accident the loss of his wife took a toll on his life and was something he found hard to come to grips with eventually he improved outwardly and started functioning in what appeared to be a normal fashion then he meets macy a woman he is impressed with he enjoys spending time with her and her daughter and they get married things seem to go nice but the story always brings up problems in this relationship jeremy from macy s point of view always seems to hold things back and she kind of resents that this is a mechanism that jeremy has developed from previous experiences and their mariage is a source of internal conflicts for jeremy some voice occassionally breaks into jeremy s life and further complicates his life things in jeremy s view of the relationship seems to shift back and forth at times the relationship is a great one and other times it is a disappointing one he struggles with loving feelings for macy and her daughter and feelings of resentment during those periods of loneliness he starts longing for communications from the voice the story rotates back and forth between the lives of jeremy and macy and they end up getting divorced but they still have some sort of connection most of the story focuses on what happens before jeremy has his breakdown the story ends up continuing after the breakdown but comes to a quick and unexplained end maybe that is just the nature of being a thriller for me it was a little disappointing but the story and it s ending did make me think posted by misterreereeder at 8 01 am no comments thursday september 8 2011 returning to sherlock holmes you may have heard it before but i became interested in mysteries when i was an early teen and reading sherlock holmes was one of the reasons for this i decided to go back to read some sherlock holmes stories and i am reminded why i was so interested in these stories you see i was astonished like dr watson by the conclusions sherlock holmes could make based on his observation skills he also fascinated me by some of the things he said in a study in scarlet for example how he describes a man s brain being like an attic it is a practical description about how a smart person only puts useful stuff in his brain rather than filling it with a lot of worthless stuff it is a very good explanation funny how we not only put useless stuff in our heads but we also a lots of times keep useless stuff in our attics or garages or closets as well so going back and rereading sherlock holmes is really been a good experience for me are there things you have read years ago and taken the time to go back and reread them later posted by misterreereeder at 7 25 pm 2 comments

rebecca rebeccarussell com posted by misterreereeder at 1 15 am no comments sunday august 21 2011 white house chef mystery series i felt it would be interesting to try a new and different series for me this is a series by julie hyzy and the first book in the series is state of the onion i suppose this is what would be classified as a cozy it is a fun read and has little to do with politics otherwise it would not be a fun read kind of what you would expect of a book with this title the book has a mystery and includes recipes at the end from meals prepared for the white house web page for author july hyzy the story has a major and a minor plot going for it the major mystery centers around an attempt of a supposed terrorist to get into the white house to warn the president of something in this attempt one of the white house staff a chef named olivia paras gets involved in trying to figure out what is going on at the same time she is in the middle of trying to become the major chef on the white house staff and keeping a semi secret relationship with a secret service agent moving forward but there are conflicts that result from this not only does she have to be careful not to become dangerously involved in her own investigation but she has to deal with competition for the executive chef position a new white house staff person seems to be doing everything he can to make her look bad and playing up the competition as the logical choice olivia realizes her place in the kitchen is a very integral part of the white house her position may not have anything to do with setting world politics but it does help with the image the main focus of the political side of the story is relationships with foreign countries party politics are not a major focus which is good since this is for a fun read check out this book if you are looking for a light fun read posted by misterreereeder at 8 15 pm 4 comments thursday august 18 2011 life imitating art sometimes life imitates art or vice versa i saw a video on the internet it was about a statue of marilyn monroe in chicago based on that famous scene in the movie the seven year itch that brought back some memories now i had not seen the movie it was made before a similar event happened to me as a boy seeing this video brought back the memories i was in elementary school at the time third grade i think as we did at the time we were outside for recess and it was time to go to the water fountain to get a drink ahead of me was one of the girls in my class who i had a little interest in i think she may have been a blond too she was getting a drink from the faucet when along came a breeze and blew up her dress for a moment yes that was an experience for me it is not like i really saw anything since she had shorts under her dress but it was definitely something i remember come to think of it i never knew about the movie the seven year itch until much later when another movie came out that played on that same scene the woman in red ahhh memories that is one of the things i enjoy when i read you never know until you read something and it brings back memories do you have memories come back when you read posted by
