Book review: Burglars Can't Be Choosers (Bernie Rhodenbarr, #1) by Lawrence Block
Rating: 4 out of 5
An enjoyable and quirky whodunit. A quick read with quite a few laughs. To get 5 stars I’d have wanted a bit more thrill. Well written characters and I enjoyed Bernie’s company.
Highlighted passage:
I had to go to ground. Had to find a bolt hole. I’d shaken the hounds from my trail for a moment or two and it was up to me to regain the safety of my burrow before they recaptured the scent. (It didn’t thrill me that all the phrases that came to me were from the language of fox hunting, incidentally.)
