I have also noticed that more and more the best-sellers are being produced in that in-between-size PB that is the same width as a regular PB, but taller. Those are usually the ones that are priced as high as $13.99. I don't know what the price of The Hanging Tree will be, but I paid $19.99 for the TPB of James Lee Burke's new Robicheaux novel, The Glass Rainbow.Kent Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834261948994921554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-73047175503458300162010-07-25T14:22:16.351-05:002010-07-25T14:22:16.351-05:00Bryan,

Seriously, a lot of the cozies I've read are surprisingly dark, so I think there are some cozy readers who would enjoy this series.<br /><br />Rick,<br />Those scenes aren't all that graphic, and the book is a trade paperback, not mass-market. Although some of those are getting close to ten bucks these days, aren't they?James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-18315167829376044822010-07-25T13:11:17.895-05:002010-07-25T13:11:17.895-05:00You had me thinking this is a book to look for unt...You had me thinking this is a book to look for until I got to the sex and cussin' part, which rarely if ever is necessary to a book and when it is can be handled off stage in a way that imparts the knowledge without making the reader watch. Still, I might try it and just skip over those parts. Though $10 seems a little steep for a paperback.Richard R.http://brokenbullhorn.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-10367267807402528572010-07-25T00:48:17.762-05:002010-07-25T00:48:17.762-05:00Hey, I'm just hoping this insightful review ge...Hey, I'm just hoping this insightful review gets me some cozy sales.

Obviously that wasn't the case because it's been nominated for several awards including one instance where it was up for best first and best PBO. I'm looking forward to The Hanging Tree and will read it just as soon as a copy shows up here in Great White North.Kent Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834261948994921554noreply@blogger.com
