What reading level is No Love Lost book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For a long time I could not even believe that I had heard them, or that they meant what I thought. I sat up in bed, looking at him woodenly and feeling that the world had come abruptly to an end.
‘Well?’ he inquired at last.
I just sat and shook my head at him, too appalled at first even to protest. He was watching my face eagerly and my silence seemed to puzzle him.
‘Go on,’ he insisted. ‘Admit it. It’s true, isn’t it?’ ‘No.’ I got the word out at last and, having done so, did not seem able to ...stop saying it. ‘No, no, no.’ I knew I was shouting and could not keep quiet. His expression changed immediately and his voice rose with authority.
‘Look out, that’s not the way. That’s not the way. Pull yourself together.’ ‘I’m sorry,’ I muttered, ‘but you were too wrong.’ His chin shot up and his eyes were narrow. ‘What exactly do you mean by that? Take your time. Explain yourself. I’m here to listen.’ I did my best but things seemed to be happening to me.

Allingham is a first class writer, but she has this particular character, the lady doctor, acting like a frightened child. She should have called the police immediately . I just don't understand tha writer going off the beam like this. She sees the blue paper description of the stolen drug and doesn't call the police, does NOTHING about it and allows this criminal to push her around as if she were a baby in a buggy. She could have insisted that one of the other doctors treat him, She could have told him off very strongly for taking all her time every day and pestering her. There are many things she could have and should have done, except what she did do.I am disappointed for the first time in her books.

I see again the utter silliness that the author instills into her female heroines. Especially doctors, TRAINED not to show exactly what Allingham's characters DO show. And with the utmost school-girlish naivete. I am becoming a bit disillusioned. There seems to be a "sameness" about her plots and the reactions of her characters. She seems to know little about medical practices although she features many doctors in her books. And her police individuals always seem very forbearing and unenthusiastic about administering the law.Write Review:
