Welcome to Litsy!

I really enjoy this series; the main characters are believable and engaging, and the mysteries are solid. I read two books in the series this week, both set in the Fall. No spoilers, but given the way this one turned out I wanted to read the next one right away! Fortunately I had it on hand.

Making good progress on my #BookSpinBingo card!

I haven't read any of the Gemma James/ Duncan Kincaid novels in a while. First published in 1995, the book shows it's age some, but not in bad way... i was just thinking while reading that times sure have changed in the last 25 years... thank goodness.

I loved Enid Blyton as a kid... haven't thought about the books in years and now that I read this line, I want to pick up one of her books again...

I'm a sucker for these types of series. And I never guess endings, so they're always fun for me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐/⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is the 3rd Kincaid/James mystery in the series, and it felt rather slow until about 3/4 of the way in. There was the actual mystery and relationship mysteries, one of which was resolved and the other...made more complicated? I am a bit ambivalent about the latter, but the series continues, and we shall see what we shall see. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2nd stack of #RIPXII reading 📖 (the top book is cut out but is the Crombie book)

Kids are outside murdering each other or something. Time to make tea and relax.

It's Saturday night and rainy. Time to get under a blanket with a mystery. It's supposed to be hot next weekend. I feel like I should savor blanket reading time before backyard reading time begins.
