A is for Alibi by Sue Grafton
Review: I like Ms. Grafton’s matter-of-fact writing style. It made the book seem more real. This one is a little bit outdated since it was written in the early 80s but it’s only noticeable through small details like waiting for film to be developed. I liked the mystery in this book and thought the outcome was satisfying. Overall, I found “A for Alibi” to be well-plotted and I can see why Ms. Grafton has written over 20 Kinsey Millhone mystery novels and continues the series.
Novelist Sue Grafton is a real hoot. She’s just as likely to talk, in that native Kentucky drawl of hers, about her prized silver-coin mint julep cups as about a juicy murder mystery. But she does have a crime writer’s imagination.
