I agree to a level. The realism in the books have changed, however not as distracting for me. I was just happy to read about salander and Blonkavist again. I thought the plot was in a decent direction. Didn’t seem to pander. Although, i would have like to have seen scenes focusing on every day Life, to contrast the insanity of the drama and crime. Also wasn’t a fan of how short it was; 400 pages? *Shrug* but that’s a bit pic.
Agatha Christie is always a good classic. Her most famous (and one of her most intense) is And Then There Were None.
Thx
I’m a Rex Stout fan, myself, so I’d naturally recommend any Nero Wolfe mystery.
Great books. I have several. I highly recommend Stout also
YAY, a fellow Wolfe fan!
The girl with the dragon tattoo by Stieg Larsson. far from you by Tess Sharpe.
OMG I LOVE the Millennium Trilogy!!!
Forget the 4th book, though–it wasn’t written by Stig Larsson, and the plot’s ridiculous, totally out of the realm of reality for Lisbeth Salander.

Ellery Queen, Lillian Jackson Braun, Andrew M. Greeley, and Lawrence Sanders. They are from the 1940s to the late 80s, all great reads.
