Book cover of The Black Wolf by Louise Penny

This was meant to be a work of fiction, written a year before the current US regime. It reads like non-fiction leaving a deep chill down my spine as I read the last page. If you don’t know #LouisePenny and her #ThreePines world-you should.

Anyone else finish The Black Wolf by @louisepennyauthor.bsky.social ? Terrifying tale and story constructed like an architectutal masterpiece. #VivaGamache. #ThreePines

A++ #BookReview: The Black Wolf by Louise Penny My Review: This book begins in the exact same place where the previous book, The Grey Wolf, ends. With the same characters, even with the same sentence, at the moment in time where the situation changes irrevocably. The moment, as artist Clara Morrow's current series of paintings is currently stuck on, the moment just before something happened. It begins in the village of Three Pines, in the Gamache living room, where the Sûreté du Québec’s Homicide Chief, Armand Gamache, is recovering from his barely averted execution at what should have been the successful conclusion of his latest investigation.

My Wonder Mom and I at the launch of The Black Wolf by Louise Penny!

The wise and amazing Louise Penny.

The launch of The Black Wolf by Louise Penny was amazing! My Wonder Mom and I had a lovely time. Louise Penny was a sheer delight. She talked about Three Pines, where the inspiration for her characters came from. I can't wait to read The Black Wolf. #louisepenny #threepines #ArmandGamache

Go to your #publiclibrary and get this one. The new narrator for the audiobook is good, too. But #LouisePenny owes me for that cliffhanger. #Gamache #ThreePines #BookSky

Hey, #Booksky! I drifted away from the Gamache stories by Louise Penny for a variety of reasons, and I want to know if the absolutely shittastic behavior around Bean ever got addressed, or if it is just accepted.
