Nov. 4 post

The book that we are reading right now is "Still Life" by Louise Penny. This book is a mystery book about a murder of an elderly women in the small town of Three Pines. It is full of mystery and really has kept my attention the entire time. This book is easily me favorite book so far. The reason that this book is my favorite is the way the Penny makes it so anyone in the town could be the person responsible for the death of Jane. It really makes it fun for the reader because they can try to piece the story together themselves.
I really enjoy being able to read a book and try to figure it out. For people that don't want to know who I think committed the murder you might not want to read any more of this blog. I know that they found the arrow and bow in the basement of the Croft's house but it just doesn't seem to fit. I don't thin that any of the Croft's killed Jane. I think that the murderer is Ben. Now I know that this seems a little bit crazy since they where friends and all but there are a lot of things that don't add up with him. The thing that really caught my attention at first is that Ben and Peter where the ones who started the archery club in the first place. This means that both of them had to be very good shots. Now this is not enough evidence on its own but then when Peter and Clara went to visit Ben, Clara went into Ben's living room and smelt cleaning materials. He may of used these cleaning materials to clean the blood up. The next thing that I noticed about Ben is that him and Peter would go out into the woods dressed up and pretend to be Robin Hood. They might of accidentally shot her. Or maybe she caught them doing something that they didn't want people to know about because there relationship seems a little strange to me so maybe it is something more. The last thing I noticed about Ben is how he kept looking at Gamache when he was talking to Clara. I am probably way off but I really enjoy trying to figure these things out ahead of time.
This book is my favorite book so far and I can't wait to see how it is going to end.
