sitelinkRemmy Rothstein Toes the Line is a shortstory written by author sitelinkKarin Slaughter, I read this as part of her shortstory collection titled: sitelinkThree Twisted Stories but this one in particular brought out some chuckles from me, Ms. Slaughter writes this dark comedy using only email messages to tell the story, I know some readers hate the correspondence style of writing but I tend to consistently love this type of storytelling and it totally worked for this piece.
The storyline had so many very original but strange factors that I couldn't help but stay incredibly engaged, I get annoyed when I have to read accents off the page just a pet peeve of mine so I'm so glad I listened to this one via audiobook the narration for the rural bayou family was fantastic.
I loved sitelinkRemmy Rothstein Toes the Line and couldn't help but shake my head and giggle at the end,

Ms. Slaughter, I saw some pretty critical reviews concerning your comedy skills but I am a fan for sure, Please keep at it!!!! I got my hands on this short story through Three Twisted Stories,

This was really interesting in terms of style but the story it seemed as though she was making an attempt at dark humour and missed out.
As a whole the only thing I liked with this one was the way in which it was set out, as a correspondence, The story could have been interesting but there was no real Slaughter vibe behind it at all, A part of me thinks it would have been better had it been longer, but Im really not sure,

As much as I hate to do it, wanted more thus the one star,
A fast paced quick listen, Very bazaar, nothing like Karin's other books, Mindy Patel, intrepid World Record Adjudicator, travels deep into the South to investigate a potential candidate for the longest tongue category,

Sneakily funny, the payoff is worth the wait, This short story is going to be ever so hard to review but I'm going to try my best! First of all, as you might already know if you're a regular visitor to my blog, I'm a big fan of Karin Slaughter.
I love her writing style, her dark humour and the way she's not afraid to go to places other authors might shy away from, I couldn't respect her more as an author or a woman yet I'm afraid I found myself not really loving Remmy Rothstein, It had a lot of interesting stylistic quirks, which I really enjoyed but somehow by the end, I was left feeling a little unsure, I could have gone right back to the start and reread it but unfortunately, I wasn't even bothered enough to do this,

The story is told from the point of view of Mindy Patel, an adjudicator for the World Records and she is writing back to her boss in the form of emails as she flits about the country, witnessing some very odd world record attempts.
The main crux of the narrative follows her journey to the swamps of the Deep South and an intriguing man called Remmy Rothstein who claims to have either the longest or the widest tongue in the world.
She of course must verify his claim so she heads off with her trusty measuring tape in tow to see if Remmy can claim a new world record.
However, she doesn't expect to meet a man and his strange family who have quite a different  and lasting effect on her than she could have believed and it's nothing to do with the tongue.


I hope I've described this little story accurately, of course with Karin Slaughter you are going to get a few surprises and twists in the tale and I always enjoy seeing what she's going to surprise me with next.
Sadly, there weren't as many "Oh My God" moments as I've found with her previous stories/novels and this is perhaps why I'm a little disappointed with the tale as a whole.
I'm also wondering if maybe I just didn't get it I left the story feeling quite confused and racking my brain to try and figure it all out, unfortunately this means that it has had an effect on the rating I've chosen to give.
As always, Karin's characteristic humour is evident throughout the story but for some reason, I felt she was trying a little too hard with this one and it didn't come off as entirely natural which was a shame.
Ending on a positive note, I did love the structure of this narrative, especially with the little footnotes about previous world records told by Mindy that you could

read at the end of each chapter.
I felt it added something a bit unusual to the story in general and a few really did make me smile, Again, if you've read this short story and have the same opinion or a different opinion as me I'd love to hear from you especially if you can shed more light on the ending for me

For my full review and many more, please visit my blog at sitelink bibliobeth. com Read in the anthology Mystery Box, It was okay. It was humorous. I think you need to be a true southerner to appreciate the humor, A very different style to the usual Karin Slaughter novels, I've been a big lover of the Will Trent and Sara Linton series' since their beginning and I love how Karin's short stories are always so hauntingly odd! This one didn't disappoint in those stakes.


Written in the form of correspondence from a World Record assessor to her boss it follows her progress in the swamp to find out if Remmy Rothstein does indeed have the longest tongue in the world.
