I say: read this book. You will not find anywhere here that Grit is about “sucking it up and getting it done”. Angela Duckworth writes: “This book has been my way of taking you out for a coffee and telling you what I know”. This book is filled with the science of Grit, as well as countless stories about Grit. The stories stick. I will have to read the book again to internalize the science of it all. I suggest you start the book with the conclusion. It gives readers a great outline of what the book is about, without giving it all away. In the conclusion Is the best part about this book “. To be gritty is to hold fast to an interesting and purposeful goal. To be gritty is to invest, day after week after year, in challenging practice. I would give this book 4.5 stars out of 5

This book was a British crime novel set in the Peak District, and featuring DI Ben Cooper. The crime mystery itself was good. A lorry driver is lured down a country lane leading to a tiny hamlet, where it gets wedged under a railway bridge. He is then brutally murdered. But was an accident or was it on purpose? I like the plot and I wanted to keep reading to find out the answers.
On the minus side, I found the minutiae of details about roads, tracks etc quite boring  and mostly irrelevant. Maybe they would’ve meant more if I lived in the Peak District. I also found the atmosphere of the book bleak and rather depressing. In addition, I hadn’t realised this was #15 in a series and I felt I was missing quite a lot of backstory on the lead characters and didn’t warm to them. For all these reasons, I’m giving this book 4
