4 Star Book Recommendation/Review Whack Job: A History of Axe Murder by Rachel McCarthy James @rmccarthyjames Thank you to @NetGalley and @StMartinsPress for this one. Check out my review on @goodreads goodreads.com/review/show/77… #TrueCrime #History #nonfiction
One of my favorite FUN history reads of 2025! Read my book review of Whack Job by @rmccarthyjames (@StMartinsPress) at @ShelfAwareness: shelf-awareness.com/sar-issue.html…

She said this made her think of me: @rmccarthyjames's WHACK JOB: A HISTORY OF AXE MURDER (@StMartinsPress). Thank you for the book (and coffee and donuts), @chriswolak -- but thank you mostly for your friendship.😊
Snagged @rmccarthyjames's new book from the local library. What can we say, she loves axe murders! Looks like good bloody fun.
Reminder: I will be at The Raven Bookstore in Lawrence at 7:00 this evening to help my daughter Rachel kick off her book tour for "Whack Job." Rachel was on KPR (KCPR?) this morning. . .you may have heard her.
