My inclination is to say that it was the best crime/mystery novel of the twentieth century.

I gave it <i>Above Average</i> as it was a good story with some interesting characters, but it has enough flaws to keep it from Outstanding (IMHO).

I voted "Above average".
However, just about every book I read I would rate as "above average", so it was probably average. ![]() |
