    Agree, I like mysteries that have a bit of humour in there too. Although I’m quite addicted to nordic noir at the moment 🤔 … not much to laugh about there! It’s the bleak Scottish DNA inside me I think!

    I want to give you a nice expression you can use here:

    > sometimes, especially during summer (lying on the beach), it happens I read detective stories.

    > sometimes, especially during summer (lying on the beach), I have been known to read detective stories.
