Customer Reviews

A Blunt Instrument

A Blunt Instrument is another great mystery book by Georgette Heyer. Love all her books.

You can see this one coming!

There are plenty of clues in this wonderful mystery. The religious overtones rather put me off. I love the fun ones, but I will read anything by Georgette Heyer.

Hilariously ridiculously funny.

Hilariously ridiculously funny. Again, Georgette Heyer's characters and dialogues are highly entertaining and witty. The plot is very well thought out too. I disagree with those who think this book is dull. Dull is never the word for this book.

Very readable but otherwise unmemorable

An old-fashioned murder mystery set in the days when life was simpler. I hardly ever figure out 'whodunit', and thus probably enjoy these types of books more than more discerning readers. But even I figured this one out fairly quickly. Maybe I've finally read enough to see the clues. Still, I recommend this as a lite-snack for the brain.
