I read them in order, and although they can be read as standalones, as you read, you become more acquainted with the characters' individual quirks. The characters are really what make this series so special.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-56162298934245564802021-03-25T23:33:58.026-07:002021-03-25T23:33:58.026-07:00You're welcome!You're welcome!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-61134940909886292002021-03-25T23:33:35.262-07:002021-03-25T23:33:35.262-07:00Great!

Yes, always can count on Montalbano for some fun with high-jinks involved. And, true, a Montalbano book without Catarella is like an apple tree without the apples, Italy without pasta, or a candy bar without chocolate.

She's a second-generation American who's family on both sides came over from Sicily about the same time and knew each other well before moving to Texas in the early 1900s. I think she'll get a kick out of them.

I noticed the TV-Series Detective Montalbano is offered via my library service Hoopla. They offer 2 seasons of young Montalbano, prequel to the Detective Montalbano series. All tolled 40 episodes. Have you or others seen the TV series? <br /><br />Thanks, and glad you're feeling better these days Cathy.<br />EvEvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09069223768481958208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-4360197938470472912021-03-25T08:03:49.789-07:002021-03-25T08:03:49.789-07:00Thanks for the review.

He does such a fabulous job, I think, and that's got a lot to do with how enjoyable these books are to those of us who don't speak any of the various dialects of Italian. It's always a treat to read a Montalbano mystery, isn't it? On top of everything else, there's that wonderful food...Margot Kinberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08599589137890528065noreply@blogger.com
