pickThis book was fun and sweet and sexy. I loved Ricki finding her own way, out of the shadow of her family. I'm super intrigued by the concept of Perennials. And I think Ezra may end up on my #litcrush list. 😍 My favorite parts were the brilliantly funny conversations Ricki had with Tuesday and Ms Della.

4. We finally meet Ned in this book! Though referenced briefly in a prior book - and that seems to me a continuity issue, given what we learn in this book - Nancy meets Ned at the scene of the fire. There is instant attraction!
I saw some comments from #LittenDetectives that they really enjoyed Bess in this one.
Thoughts to share on Bess, George, or Ned? #NancyDrewBR
pickI listened to this book while #audiopainting and enjoyed the heck out of it! It was absolutely fun: from Fizzy's zest for life, the concept behind the reality show, the "heroes," to the cameos by Jess and River it was a great ride! And Connor is going on my #litcrush list! ?

pickI enjoyed the other books by her I've read but this one I loved! All the rom-com references (book and movie), two people whose jobs (and thoughts and lives) are shaped by love of books, wonderful secondary charactors, and an adorable, punny small town all came together into something that simply worked for me. And let's not forget Charlie Lastra, a prince among men and new leader of my #litcrush list!
A newsletter I subscribe to (dated today) mentioned National Book Boyfriend Day. I assumed today was the day and began reminiscing about my very first #litcrush, Ned Nickerson 🥰, before discovering the actual day was Oct 3. 😒 Ah well. I still came home and mined my childhood set of Nancy Drew books for pics of the delightful N.N. 😁

This book was so grimy and saturated with such evil vial violent characters I now need to read something lighthearted to cleanse my brain of the grime. That being said, This is the best Strike novel I‘ve read yet. They keep getting better imo and I‘m excited to read more. I‘m seriously in love with Cormoran.
pickIt's been a while since I've visited Sheriff Longmire's world and I'm not going to stay away so long this time. Not only do I really like this series (the harsh Wyoming landscape and weather, the little town, the workings of the sheriff's office, the respect Walt feels for the Native population) but my #litcrush on Henry Standing Bear is still going strong and I think I'll need to see him again soon. 😉
I had a feeling that once I read one Dorothy Sayers I wouldn't be able to tear myself away I was right. I'm halfway through this one and loving it. I hereby promise myself that I really will finish reading The Seven Husbands Of Evelyn Hugo very soon but for now I'm going to continue wallowing in Sayers' precision of language.
Swoon. I can't deny that I have a bit of a #litcrush on Lord Peter.
pickSometimes I'm kind of glad my job leaves me little time for reading as I was forced to take my time with this book. I just love these characters and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them again. The mysteries kept my attention; Strike's and Robin's personal journeys were occasionally painful but in a good way; and my #litcrush on Cormoran is still going strong. PLEEEEEZE, J.K., don't let the next book take as long as this one did.
