I was in my friendly neighborhood bookstore looking for that Steve Harvey book and spotted "trinidad noir" on another shelf and I picked it up. Now I can't put it down. Trinidad Noir is part of the "Noir Series" by Akashic Books, there are 3 Brooklyn Noirs, Manhattan, New Orleans, Havana, Paris, you get the picture, they're all crime fiction anthologies and each story is a crime that is taking place in a certain part of the city or country. anyway if you haven't already read them I highly suggest it.

This was actually pretty good. I'm not really into the short stories thing but they were enjoyable. Esp the one about making copies in the national archives...I was laughing all thru that one. A couple of them were actually dark and serious but most of them had me laughing.
