Sorry for the delay, I didn't feel well.
First of all, this book was a present and somehow I didn't realise that it is the second book in the series. Sometimes I don't think about something.
That being said, I liked it so far.
Clarice seems to be a strong woman who is able to adapt to situations quite well. The accent on the phone and the intuitional speeking with Hannibal.
So I didn't read Red Dragon but it is clear that there is a history to the relationship between Crawford and Dr. Lecter. And that Hannibal wrote this note is appalling.
I don't know how I feel about "don't listen to Hannibal" to "do you think Raspail had only one car?" That is not palpable yet. But I am very curious what may be the valentines gift. And Clarice committed instantly in this.
I can only support your impression, Ms_Zuralli.
I don't know how book clubs really work, so feel free to reel me in if it's sounding reportish...
Haha, don't ask me. But this is just the beginning. And I think not much to discuss yet.
