goddam I love the Perry Mason novels. Perry's talking to this blackmailer, and the guy ends up pissing Perry off, and then as they're leaving the hotel where they were trying to broker this deal, the guy says, "No hard feelings."

Perry Mason turned his back.
"The hell there ain't," he said.

bwahahahahah I can't wait to see this guy wrecked. book!Perry does not fuck around, and this is the first volume, so I imagine (hope) that he's gonna be especially bitchy. (^_^)

Once more unto the breach, embracing the freedom to be ignored. I'm reading the Perry Mason novels for the first time in many many years. I only read ones based on episodes I liked at that point, so now I'm going through and reading them chronologically. It's interesting to see the character evolve as the public buzz grew. I hope that Gardner never makes Perry exactly the way he is on TV, because I like that he's got an edge. I'm about to start Book 5. Fans of the series will probably know why I am at a moment of reflection and trepidation.

I think there was no one better suited to being Mason than Burr. Because it was prime time TV on CBS, they were pushing the boundaries, having a woman as producer without the schtick Dorothy Fontana pulled. CBS couldn't have Mason occasionally bribing cops (& ADAs), passing out money for tips in a sleazy way, and the like. There's a lot of stuff he pulls in the earliest books that just couldn't have flown on TV. So I feel like the show is a tamer Mason than the books, and I hope it stays that way.

But why did I pick this moment? Why should I have started to really think when I'm four books in, instead of sharing my thoughts from the jump? And why, a less-fanatical reader may ask, am I pausing between 4 & 5?

It's because I'm a little bit afraid. I know who shows up in the fifth book. I'm afraid of the beginning of a slow and possibly painful mutation of the milieu of Perry Mason. It's no spoiler to say that DA Hamilton Burger is in the fifth book for the first time. Sergeant Holcomb has shown up already in book 4. All we'll need is Lt. Tragg.

There's something magical in the earliest books of the series. While I'm being vague now, it's only by way of a lead-in. I will lay out my opinion on each of the first four books in ensuing posts.

Also note that I am working on breaking my allergy to hashtags for this post. It'll be a rarity.

TIL that the surname Carnegie is stressed on the second syllable, unlike Carnegie Hall.

Sending a cup of insanely expensive 1957 coffee ☕️symbolically to @lilymarswrites who couldn't be here tonight, since she introduced me to #PerryMason ♥️

@JoeWynne A stalker's dream! #PerryMason #TVMysteries

@SesameSquirrel And she's stunningly gorgeous! #PerryMason #TVMysteries

@Kinetograph So if coffee kept up with inflation that's 11.57 for a cup of coffee. That's just about right. #PerryMason #TVMysteries

@Kinetograph

That's $171,000 today!!

Great entrance by Perry and Della!

#MurderEveryMonday Cover
with a broken or smashed object:
#ColecçãoVampiro has many authors of what's called hard boiled subgenre, so one would expect broken and smashed things right and left. And indeed, I found many objects (glasses, stools, pipes,
bicycles) turned over, but clearly they must have been of the most high quality because none of them were broken
l've shared recently a broken compact, but I wanted to get a different cover, and found this one. Original
title isThe Case of the One-Eyed Witness.
Thank you to Kate for the hashtag, you can check her blog to know more

Watched an old #PerryMason the other day. One actor's voice was unmistakable as a guest star in an original recipe #StarTrek episode - looked him up, and yup, checked out. Noticed IMDB had a mention of his son being a founding member of an old band I haven't thought about in decades but recalled hearing a snippet of one track I always kinda liked in an ad on the radio back in the day.

And now...here we are

This happens no matter what I do/watch/listen to/exist near.
Someone send help.
