Lenny Marks Gets Away with Murder

I loved everything about this book. I could identify with Lenny in many ways. I will reread this, for sure.

This is the debut novel from Kerryn Mayne. It follows a reclusive and slightly odd grade school teacher who is dealing with a past trauma brought back to the forefront when she receives a letter from the parole board.
Lenny is a very relatable character that you will instantly love. Mayne's writing is sharp, with moments of dark humor and vulnerability. It moves gracefully from a fun read to a suspenseful novel. The twists are unpredictable, which keeps you reading (I thought about this book constantly and picked it up at every chance.)
It's a great read! I can't wait to read more from Mayne.
