I picked up _The Poet_ a few days ago, remembering what you'd said
about Connelly, Mario, and loved it. The plot is extremely compelling
- it was unputdownable - and there was something a little odd - flat,
maybe, but not in a bad way - about the narration that intrigued me.
I'm surprised to see others here couldn't even be bothered to finish
some of this other books but I'm going to give try the Harry Bosch
series.
