Murder Mystery Wednesday: A Review of The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton
Hey all you Cool Cats and Kittens, welcome to today's review. Today I bring a lovely little murder mystery tale entitled The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton.
Let me tell you a bit about this gem of a book. We meet our narrator, whose name we later learn is Aiden Bishop, as he awakens in the woods. He doesn't know his name, doesn't know where he is or what he's doing. All he knows is that he's injured and he's in danger although he doesn't know from who or what. As it turns out, Aiden isn't in his actual body; he won't be for awhile. Each day, he'll be forced to live to the same day, in a different body, until he can solve the murder of the titular Evelyn Hardcastle and there are others out there who are trying to prevent him from solving the murder.
Sound a bit familiar?
Author A.J. Finn has already given the best description for this book, it is a description that shall never be topped so I will put an abridged version here: Groundhog Day but make it Agatha Christie. That's it, that's the book. You shouldn't need anything else to convince you to read this one. Seriously, you aren't going to be disappointed.
Bye, that's this week's review! See ya all next week!
As always, a spoiler alert is in order. Although I can't spoil the whole thing given how twisty, turny this book is, you have been warned. A trigger warning is also necessary for this book. One of the characters is a confirmed rapist, and while nothing happens in the book, his behavior is not unknown and is brought up on occasion by other characters in the story.
I don't think I can go about this review in the typical way I layout my reviews. I'd like to talk about the characters, but alas, Aiden Bishop does not know who he is. His personality is non existent since he doesn't know who he is and is instead just freaking out over things the entire time. And when he's not freaking out in the various bodies he's taken control of, he's too busy solving the mystery of who is going to kill Evelyn. There is no time to develop one's own personality.
How dare you not have a character arc, Aiden!
As for the bodies Aiden inhabits, they're pretty much archetypes. In no particular order, there is the fuckboy, the cop who can solve anything, the elderly English gentleman, and the rich man who can get leverage on anyone; just to name a few of these bodies. Not enough time is spent with these characters, or I guess I should say hosts, for them to have any type of character arc. Like I said, Aiden only spends a day in each of these bodies so it's not long before he's sent to his next host. And should he have spent longer than one day in each host, it's Aiden dictating the speech and movements so it wouldn't have been a true character arc.
The only other notable characters are two women. One is the titular Evelyn Hardcastle and the other is a woman named Anna who is in the same situation as Aiden. Sadly, not much can be said about either one.
The lack of character development is truly uninspiring.
Anna, as a I said, is in the same situation as Aiden. She wakes up each day in a body that is not hers, does not know where she is, doesn't know anyone, doesn't know who she is, and has no idea what to do. Unlike Aiden, she knows what her name is but that's it. She's a central character in the book, but more time is spent thinking or talking about her than time is spent with her. I don't believe that readers or Aiden truly know who she is as a person or her true motivations by the end of the book. She's supposed to have had a large character arc by the end of the story, but the vast majority of it is done before the book even starts. It's a lot of tell with absolutely none of that arc being shown.
Evelyn is the only other notable character I want to talk about. Much like Anna, more time is spent discussing her than time is spent with her. And like the other characters, not much is known about her or her personality. People have horrible opinions on her, but they don't truly know her. I think the best thing to say about her is she's important because she's central to the plot of the book. She herself is a mystery; which does make perfect sense upon reflection.
This is seriously the face I pulled when I realized this the other day.
I love that I said I can't really talk much on these characters and then proceeded to talk about the characters for five paragraphs. Guess I really can layout this review in the same way.
There are so many other characters in this novel too. It's not just the hosts and these two women. There has to be two dozen characters who are either met or referenced throughout the mystery. There's honestly too many characters to remember at times.
This is an accurate representation of the amount of characters in this book.
Thankfully, Turton includes a notable character list in the form of an invitation right at the start of the book. Although I found myself having to turn back to the invite more often than I would like.
Thank you for this character list though. It was a life savior!
Now, it sounds like I'm just shitting on all these characters and the amount of them. I promise I'm not! This book is great! The characters are just very cut and dry. This book is not about its characters; it is about its murder mystery. So let's get into that.
At 11 o'clock each night, Evelyn Hardcastle is slated to die. Each night, she walks to a reflective pool, gun in hand, and shoots herself in the stomach. A cut and dry suicide it may seem. But that's not the case. Evelyn Hardcastle is being blackmailed and forced to shoot herself. The reason why remains a mystery. A mystery that only Aiden can solve.
Seriously, I haven't read a mystery that is so tightly woven, so twisty and turny outside of Agatha Christie novels in quite some time. From the beginning Turton has readers trying to figure things out. You are put in Aiden's shoes and everything is as confusing to you as it is to Aiden. Everything is unknown. Everything is a mystery. From here on out, every thought I had an idea or clue as to who was behind the blackmail, behind the murder, I was proven wrong chapters later. This is a well done, ten-out-of-ten, mystery.
There were many times when I felt like Patrick.
There are two main twists in this mystery. One being right at the end that I shall not get into, and one being the reason that Aiden and Anna are forced to the live the same day over and over. The latter is something I want to touch on.
If you don't want to be spoiled by what I'm about to say, then now is a good time to hop off this review. Not everything will be spoiled, but some juicy info certainly will be.
If you're leaving then I bid you farewell, friend.
Basically, Anna and Aiden are stuck in this time loop because they're in a sort of jail. How time, aging, and memories exactly work in this jail remains unknown, but nonetheless, these two are in a prison. I'll leave the reasons why they're there as a surprise, but I found this twist to be something I'm still on the fence about.
I wasn't expecting this country manor to be a prison. Props to the author for creating something so unique.
Snaps to the author for this.
But this idea just doesn't feel fully explored to me. It is presented two thirds of the way through the book, and feels a tad bit forgotten about in the grand scheme of things. As I said, the focus of this book is its mystery.
While that's not necessarily a bad thing, there are details that get pushed to the side. The prison plot line is the most notable, but there are other details that get pushed to the side as well. Another example is the lack of memorable introductions to side characters. Too much time was spent jumping back and forth between the character list and the story. Less characters, more mystery!
I don't think I'd want to change much with this book. I want to yell that it's perfect the way that it is, but as a reviewer I do have to say no book is without its faults. This is a well written tale that is not disappointing.
If you are a fan of mysteries, you will love this one. Seriously, every mystery fan should have this book on his, her, or their shelf. It is a book that you do not want to miss. The 7½ Death of Evelyn Hardcastle is the perfect way to spend an evening if you're the type of person who enjoys solving mysteries. Seriously, give this one a read; I can't recommend it enough.

Ната́лья Анато́льевна Ру́дина (урожд. — Миня́ева; ), более известная как Натали́, — советская и российская эстрадная певица, композитор, автор песен, актриса, телеведущая.

Биография

Родилась 31 марта 1974 года в Дзержинске. Отец, Анатолий Николаевич Миняев, был заместителем главного энергетика на заводе, а мать, Людмила Павловна, была работником химкомбината «Дзержинское оргстекло», лаборантом цеха «Мономер». В семье появились ещё двое детей — двойняшки Антон и Олеся.

В 1980 году пошла в первый класс средней школы № 37. Окончила музыкальную школу по классу фортепиано.

В 1990 году была замечена кинематографистами киностудии «Ленфильм», снимавшими в Дзержинске фильм, посвящённый 60-летию города, была утверждена на главную роль в нём. В том же году становится солисткой школьного вокально-инструментального ансамбля «Шоколадный бар», куда её привел младший брат Антон, который в свои 12 лет уже был барабанщиком этой группы. В мае того же года участвовала в составе ансамбля в городском рок-фестивале. Тем же летом вошла в состав любительской молодёжной группы «Поп-Галактика». Вместе с ней в местной студии звукозаписи записала ряд песен, в том числе собственного сочинения, и до окончания школы выпустила два магнитоальбома: «Супербой» и «Звёздный дождь». Часть композиций из репертуара «Поп-Галактики» — кавер-версии немецкой певицы C. C. Catch, такие, как «Грёзы во сне», «Супербой» и «В рай или в ад».

По окончании средней школы, в 1991 году Миняева поступила в педагогическое училище Дзержинска и вышла замуж за Александра Рудина (став Рудиной), который ещё за год до этого был одним из инициаторов первых записей песен в местной студии звукозаписи. Окончив педучилище, работала преподавателем младших классов средней школы № 22 Дзержинска, продолжая писать песни и петь их с коллегами, учениками и их родителями.

Карьера
В 1993 году приехала в Москву и уже через год под псевдонимом Натали выпустила первый альбом «Русалочка», в котором выступила как исполнитель и автор почти всех песен (исключением стала песня «Я улечу», представлявшая собой русскоязычную кавер-версию песни «All That She Wants» из репертуара популярной в то время шведской группы Ace of Base, с написанным самой певицей русским текстом). Вслед за синглом 1995 года «Розовый рассвет», с тремя новыми песнями, в 1996 году появился второй альбом «Снежная роза», разошедшийся бо́льшим тиражом, чем «Русалочка». В том же году вышел первый клип на песню «Снежная роза».

Популярность пришла в 1997 году вместе с песней «Ветер с моря дул» и одноимённым альбомом. Эта песня по итогам 1997 года вошла в пятёрку наиболее популярных и стала визитной карточкой певицы. Альбом «Ветер с моря» был выпущен в 1998 году рекордным тиражом.

В 1999 году вышел новый альбом «Считалочка». На три песни из альбома, включая заглавную, были сняты видеоклипы. В альбом, помимо прочего, вошла кавер-версия песни Аркадия Хоралова «Новогодние игрушки», исполненная в дуэте с самим композитором.

В сентябре 2000 года выпустила альбом «Первая любовь». В этом же году у певицы появился новый хит — песня «Черепашка». В 2002 году выпустила новый альбом «Не влюбляйся», в 2003 году вышли клипы на песни «Море цвета джинсов» и «Всё, что мне надо».

В 2008 году приняла участие в составе «команды России» на шоу «Суперстар-2008». В 2009 году выпустила альбом «Семнадцать мгновений любви», а также написала несколько песен для брата Антона, выступавшего под псевдонимом Макс Волга. В 2011 году в программе «Музыкальный ринг на НТВ» выступала за команду «Королевы 90-х».

В 2013 году выпустила песню «О Боже, какой мужчина!», записанную в ноябре 2012 года и ставшую вторым (после «Ветер с моря дул») «визитным» хитом певицы. Композиция более 8 недель находилась на первой строчке «Золотого граммофона» «Русского радио». 6 февраля 2013 вышел официальный видеоклип. Уже к середине апреля видеоклип был просмотрен более 2,5 миллионов раз, к концу года число просмотров превысило 12 миллионов, в данный момент (август 2021 года) клип имеет уже более 94 миллионов просмотров.

Linear Façades
Sun Control Louvers
Aeration Louvers
Parking Structure Façades
Ceilings and Soffits
The ventilated façade is an exterior enclosure system that allows for the regulation of the temperature in a building, optimizing the thermal and acoustical insulation by means of an air movement chamber. The intermediate chamber reduces extreme thermal changes in-between the parallel structures. It eliminates direct exposure to thermal radiation and consequently contributes to the protection of the building envelope.
The use of natural ventilation that these systems provide happens to be the most efficient strategy for the passive cooling of a building, and becomes quite relevant in places with major solar exposure. In cold weather, Simpleyfácil's ventilated façades operate as an accumulator of warmth, thus limiting the direct impact of cold temperatures on the primary façade.
HOW A VENTILATED FAÇADE REGULATES TEMPERATURES
The solar radiation from the exterior lands on the metallic façade. By way of the conductivity effect, this increases the temperature of the air that is lodged in the intermediate chamber, raising it above the ambient temperature inside the building.
The hot air in the intermediate chamber now increases in volume, and thanks to convection (the chimney effect) is starting to ascend. The excess of pressure in the upper part of the chamber actually pushes the hot air out. This now induces the suction of cooler air from outside into the lower part of the chamber.
This mechanism continues to operate as the exterior "skin" of the building interchanges energy with the air that is contained inside the intermediate chamber.
Two Concepts of Linear Façades
Technical Façades
The technical façade systems are designed to meet the demands of modern construction architecturally and in performance driven specifications.
The test results of the technical façades will show the most relevant characteristics that might be called for depending on the parameters of every project and the national and international standards that apply.
Design Façades
The design façades prioritize aesthetic versatility over technical demand, while maintaining the basic properties. Through the use of our standard componentry, the Design Façade system allows for the maximum amount of versatility by the utilizing our unique forms and compatible tools to give designers the building blocks for a facade that is their own.
Installation Systems
Press-in-place
The press-in-place systems designed by Fácil Façades consist of a basic or skeleton structure integrated by aluminum profiles called supports, upon which the various slat models are anchored in order to create the canvas or skin of the ventilated façade.
The slat is anchored to the support by snapping it onto a punched area of the support. You find these punches at equal distances of the support. The punched area can be part of the support profile or it can be integrated as an adaptor into a larger support section called basic profile. In this case the so called universal adaptor is screwed onto the basic profile opening up the punched area of the adaptor.
Arc 37
Plane Perforated
Mechanical Assembly
The option to install the slats by means of a mechanical assembly was developed to address the necessities of large glass surfaces, where a clean look with a limited number of vertical supports is called for in order to preserve a major visual transparency.
The mechanical attachment of the slats to the building structure is done by brackets that stick out of the flat surface of the structure. The installation of the slats in various inclination grades limits the direct solar impact and projects shadows onto the building envelope, resulting in a temperature reduction in the building.
Another option is to install side plates on the interior of the structure. These are offered in various designs so as to create different façade design patterns.

If you're looking for a hotel deal, it might pay to wait until the last minute
September 27, 2021 admin	No Comments
When it comes to reserving hotel stays, Aesop and his fabled ants might have gotten it backwards — it can actually pay to wait till the last minute to book.
While conventional wisdom holds that travelers get better rates for accommodations, air and other vacation components by reserving early, research from NerdWallet found that 66% of the time they'd save more by waiting to book a hotel room until 15 days before arrival, compared to four months out.
The idea that booking early is better has actually always been more about choice, said Sally French, a travel expert at NerdWallet.
It's less about 'buy earlier for better deals' and more about the opportunity cost of not booking early — you could severely limit your options by waiting," she said. "Booking in advance means you have more choice to book the hotel that's truly in your budget."
NerdWallet studied more than 2,500 hotel room rates in 2019, 2020 and the first half of 2021 at hotels worldwide across price point and brand, comparing prices for nights 15 days and four months out.
From 2019 to 2021, the average room rate in North America booked 15 days out was $203, while that for a unit booked four months out was $233, NerdWallet found, a 12.7% difference. Internationally, the respective rates and difference were a similar $201 and $232, a 13.5% gap.
"International trends are mostly in line with domestic trends," said French, adding it's "comforting knowing you're not missing out on even better international deals."
The average rate at all high-end hotels, meanwhile, was $302 when booked 15 days before travel, compared to $386 four months ahead — a 21.6% difference. The difference is even greater — 50%, NerdWallet found — when comparing rates for 15 days ahead with 11 months before.
However, "cheaper" is a relative term, French noted. As an example, she pointed to pre-pandemic nightly rates at the JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE, which were $1,110 when booked 11 months out and $450 just 15 days before.
"Still, $450 is more than most people are going to pay for one night at a hotel," French said. "So while you might get a 'better' rate at that hotel, it's often going to still be more expensive than a mid-range option."
Savings at medium- and low-range hotels were more meager, at 9.4% and 5.5%, respectively. French said NerdWallet found that "budget friendly" hotels, such as the $100-a-night Best Western Market Center in Dallas — which never deviated from that rate in the course of the study — are less likely to vary in price even up to the last minute.
"But what happens if you think it's OK to procrastinate, and then all the budget hotels get sold out because a huge festival or conference was in town?" French said. "You might have no choice but to book the Ritz-Carlton, which often goes for over $1,000.
"That's a $900 mistake for waiting until the last minute," she said.If you feel comfortable traveling now, grab deals while you can because I don't expect they'll stick around.Sally FrenchTRAVEL EXPERT AT NERDWALLET
Has the pandemic and ensuing downturn in travel helped keep rates down? French said prices fell about 33% year-over-year in 2020 but are now 30% cheaper than in 2019, meaning they're on the rise.
"As more people get vaccinated and countries open up to tourists, I expect that trend to continue," she noted. "If you feel comfortable traveling now, grab deals while you can because I don't expect they'll stick around."
Travelers might want to consider booking direct with their hotel of choice, whether online or by phone. It's less about price and more about flexibility, according to French. "Many hotels have super-generous cancellation policies these days, but it's often only honored when the reservation was made with them," she said. "It's less of a guarantee that you'll get a full refund when booked with a travel agent or a third-party site."
In addition, most hotels will price-match cheaper rates for the same room and travel dates, according to French, or travelers with reservations at hotels with flexible cancellation policies can cancel more expensive reservations made earlier and rebook at cheaper rates. That said, booking at online sites is "certainly faster and more convenient," she added.
Destinations with cheaper hotel rates include Bangkok and Tokyo abroad — where rates are still off 2019 prices by more than 50% — and, in the U.S., business centers like New York and Philadelphia, according to French.
Where to avoid?
"I'm seeing a lot of hotels — particularly in more remote, domestic destinations — that have actually gone up in price," she said. "Two different luxury hotels in Scottsdale, Arizona, the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch and the Andaz Scottsdale Resort & Bungalows, both averaged about 80% more in 2021 versus their 2019 rates."
