I was coming off Rankin, Nesbo, Adler-Olsen, Peter Temple and Tana French so it was a change of pace and took a while to adjust to the lighter tone. Now I'm on to Maigret, another lighter one that I'm starting to enjoy. Unfortunately my libraries only have half the series in Kindle format so I'm having to skip a lot of them.
I've listened to roughly the first half of Maigret as Audible books so far this year. I paid roughly USD $10 each, but the narration has been outstanding! I have skipped a few where the plot description just didn't grab me.
