![The Long Goodbye](https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388225584l/2054._SX98_.jpg)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is my first time reading The Long Goodbye, continuing my first run-through of the Chandlers, and I have to say I'm rather amazed.
The prose in all of these is really something else. Gorgeous comes to mind, as does sharply evocative; like having a 6 1/2 screwdriver melted down to be turned into a cocktail drink at the ritziest bar in LA.
I've never read a murder mystery that gave me such a rich impression of a steamy romance, but here we are. This super short book went down SMOOTH. If you see my eyes bugging out it's only because of the fumes.
Definitely a must-read for ... anyone.
