Maigret Challenge #2

Hello!

I thought it was time for an update on my Maigret Challenge. I have started to read a Maigret book whenever the Grand Prix is on. The husband watches the Grand Prix and I read a Maigret book. This works out well because a Maigret book usually lasts for all of qualifying and the actual race. Sadly, it didn’t happen with the last race though because I was playing for a wedding during qualifying and cooking a roast dinner during the race but I am hoping to get back into the routine next race day.

Last check in I had read 8 books out of 75. So let’s see what the list looks like now. All the ticked off books are linked to the reviews apart from A Crime in Holland which still needs reviewing.

1. Pietr the Latvian
2. The Late Monsieur Gallet
3. The Hanged Man of Saint-Pholien
