Kinsey and Me

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed Alphabet series comes a collection of stories that “combines glimpses of her series detective, Kinsey Millhone, with a revealing self-portrait” (Publishers Weekly). In 1982, Sue Grafton introduced Kinsey Millhone and created an iconic female detective. Here, in a story collection divided into two parts, Sue Grafton provides a glimpse of her own early life in the guise of the character Kit Blue, and enriches our understanding of Kinsey Millhone, one of the spunkiest, smartest, and most entertaining private investigators in all of mystery fiction. “Terrific...The Kinsey stories and the Kit stories together open a window into Grafton's soul.”—USA Today

I have held off from reading this for a while. I loved the alphabet series and I just wasn’t ready to let Kinsey go. The stories in here were like sitting with an old friend for the first half of the book. Kinsey is back and cracking the cases in record time!

The second half of the book is full a of a personal narrative by Kit and the loss of her mother. It was very deep and emotional. Definitely a change from the sharp, sarcastic Kinsey.

A great little collection and definitely one I enjoyed. I will definitely miss Kinsey.
