As posted elsewhere earlier.....
This first set of reviews for 2014, added to the Euro Crime website
today, is a mixture of new reviews and a catch-up of those posted
directly on the blog in the last few weeks, so you may have read some of
them before if you're a regular .
Euro Crime took a break over the festive period in terms of reviews
however the review team revealed their favourite discoveries of 2013 in
a series of posts
(http://eurocrime.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/favourite%20discovery%202013).
Currently we are part-way through unveiling the review team's favourite
reads of 2013
(http://eurocrime.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/favourite%20reads%202013).
After the individual lists have been posted I will tally them all up and
reveal the overall favourite Euro Crime authors, titles and translators
of 2013.
NB. Keep up to date with Euro Crime by following the blog and/or liking
the Euro Crime Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/eurocrimewebsite).
