![]() The twists and turns along the way are somewhat predictable, but they still kept me on the edge of my seat. ![]() Joe and his neighbor, Lila, dive into Carl’s story, determined to dig up what really happened to Crystal. As Joe learns more about Carl, he realizes that Carl may be telling the truth when he says he didn’t murder Crystal. And, oh yeah, Carl was convicted of murdering his 14-year-old neighbor, Crystal Hagen, decades ago. Joe stumbles upon Carl Iverson, a Vietnam veteran who is dying of Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Joe Talbor, a student at the University of Minnesota, must interview a stranger and write a biography about him for a final class project. ![]() ![]() It didn’t have what it takes to make a 4-star rating, but I enjoyed how easy and quick this book was to read. I really enjoyed this book, although I don’t typically read thrillers, and I gave it a solid 3 stars on Goodreads. My book club designated The Life We Bury as June’s book to read, and what’s super cool is that the author, Allen Eskens, is from Minnesota! He’s joining our book club for the night, and I can’t wait to ask him a few questions about the book. ![]()
