book: After I’m Gone (2014) by Laura Lippman
Noirish Posted by John Grant on Oct 29, 2019
The last two Laura Lippman books I’ve read I enthused about. Although I enjoyed After I’m Gone a fair amount, it didn’t seem to me to hit those same heights. In 1976 Baltimore numbers crook Felix Brewer fled a hefty prison rap, leaving behind his beloved bride Bambi, their three s read more
book: Looker (2019) by Laura Sims
Noirish Posted by John Grant on Jun 10, 2019
The blurb to this book describes it as a “propulsive Hitchcockian thriller,” a comment that’s both grossly misleading and in some ways justified. To take the latter first, I can see the connection with classic tales of obsession like Boileau-Narcejac’s Vertigo, which Hitchco read more
book: I’d Know You Anywhere (2010) by Laura Lippman
Noirish Posted by John Grant on Dec 16, 2018
I’ve been pretty lucky with my reading during 2018, taking things overall, so it’s a surprise that, halfway through December, I’ve encountered what may be my book of the year. I’m normally unhappy with genre pigeonholing except as a guiltily deployed shorthand, and all the w read more
book: Sunburn (2018) by Laura Lippman
Noirish Posted by John Grant on Aug 21, 2018
A silky-smooth piece of noir. If a writer like James M. Cain or David Goodis had mellowed with age, had become a little less disenchanted with his fellow man, he might have produced something like Sunburn. Here we have a femme fatale, Polly, who’s as ruthless and seductive as any, yet whose m read more

Guest Classic Links: Laura of Who Can Turn The World Off With Her Smile
Classic Movies Posted by KC on Apr 18, 2012
I found Laura’s blog when I participated in a movie monster blogathon last year. I liked her style right away. It was the banner that sucked me in. It’s perfect! As one who is clearly not inspired when it comes to naming things, I could admire her for the juxtaposition of that image and read more
