pickI am so sad this book series is over. I feel like it finally got good drama and mystery right at the end too. And I love aurora. Definitely worth the read!
pickEnjoyable but not as good as the previous one

pickFans of Aurora Teagarden will love this continuation of the series. Harris takes us for a visit with new mom Aurora after her nanny goes missing the same night a body is found in her backyard. Funny, frustrating, and endearingly Aurora, there are misdirects and puzzles everywhere. I love how Harris takes the mundane, and weaves it into a mystery to love.
so-soUmmm. So a bit mixed on this. It‘s not the best of this series, and the conclusion to the mystery is a bit left field but I think it does a good job of portraying the monotony of having a new baby. Not that I have any experience of a new baby but it tallies with stories I‘ve heard from people who do...
Sunday night library book: the latest Aurora Teagarden book
Tonight's read. I absolutely love anything by Charlaine Harris. I'm sure this won't dissapoint.
panPossibly unpopular opinion time - I love cozy mysteries in general, and I enjoyed earlier books in this series (the only reason I finished it) but this one felt terrible to me. Aurora‘s inner voice was obnoxious and grating, the story was crazy pants - maybe they‘re all like this and I just hadn‘t noticed it before??
pickFinished & got it back to the library just a day late.📚😬Not my favorite book of the series-I felt like the first half was draggy & Aurora with a new baby & the flu is not a joy to be around, but the later half picked up & I didn't have part of the mystery figured out which is always a bonus in a cozy & makes it a pick. I do think I need to go back a few books in the series (before these last 'new' books) to refresh my memory on side characters.
Well this was supposed to go back to the library today & it's not going back until tomorrow. I have about 70 pages left and I WILL finish it tonight. Sorry person next in the hold line--I generally have better library manners but needs must.😬 Taking a late work-from-home lunch & getting a few pages in over leftover Vegan Cheesy Loaded Baked Potato Soup & toppings from Sunday which is totally hitting the spot on this grey, drizzly day. 😋🥔🧀🍲❤️
The easiest way to drive me insane is for an author to not name their characters consistently. When Angel has the baby in this series, she names it June. In this book, she refers to her baby as Lorna. Lorna is Arthur and Lynn's daughter in a prior book. It's such a minor detail and now it's all I can think about.
I'm invested to see how this series ends. An awesome friend sent me the last one for my Kindle.
It's definitely a popcorn-for-dinner-with-a-book kind of Friday night and I'm guessing chocolate will be happening later. I needed Friday. 🍿🍽📚🍫
#DecDays #Rockabye A little rockabye and you should sleep like a baby. 👶🏻💤I'm currently reading the tagged book which seemed to fit the prompt and here are seven more from my stacks with 'baby' in their titles--although not all involve infants and some may keep you awake.😱😆I have read all of these except for the tagged book which I just started.📚
A breakfast mash-up-Ambrosia Overnight Oats takes ingredients of classic ambrosia-pineapple, tangerine, coconut & marshmallows & puts them in creamy, cold overnight oatmeal. It's inspired by two scenes in Planes, Trains and Automobiles (November's film for my movie/food blogging group) but I read the tagged/pictured book while eating it & Neal & Del were sleeping like babies, cuddled up, "Those aren't pillows!"?in a classic scene. Recipe link??
so-soThis is my guilty pleasure mystery series. The MC can be annoying, the descriptions of everyday activities are tedious, solving the mystery is always quick and wraps up in the last 10 pages - yet I still keep coming back for more eye rolls and convenient mystery wrap ups!
This book (while I don't expect much but light entertainment) disappointed me with the world's biggest letdown of an ending.
And of course I'll still read the next 😝
This series is my guilty pleasure read. I need this palate cleanser before I dive in to A Conjuring of Light!
On our way back home, mom stole my Kindle. She sits with her finger cocked and ready for the next page. Little does she know her very own kindle is sitting in my closet waiting for Christmas! ❤
This is how I‘m spending this chilly Sunday night- reading the new Aurora Teagarden novel and snuggled up under a blanket with both dogs!
pickAs always just couldn‘t get enough
Finally starting this
pickThis was between a so-so and a pick for me. The mystery was good, but I was annoyed with Aurora in this book. She seemed grouchy, thankless, and snooty. (At least that was my interpretation)
Library hold came in! The new Aurora Teagarden, I really like this series.
Working on the new Aurora Teagarden book 😁 This is the series that got me into cozy mysteries to begin with (I'm honestly still pretty picky though)
#amreading #cozymystery #aurorateagarden
My #currentread that I have to somehow speed through this weekend because it was only a 7 day rental for the #library
pickLike all of the Roe books, this was fast to the point of "oh God the book is almost over, better wrap things up!" eleventh-hour resolution, but it was enjoyable. (Sheer cozy mystery fluff usually is.) #sleeplikeababy #charlaineharris #aurorateagarden
Sometimes I find Roe's character to be inconsistent, and wildly immature, but it doesn't stop me from being glad this series has continued. (It doesn't hurt that they're just really easy reads.) #sleeplikeababy #charlaineharris #aurorateagarden
Another bonus of #librarylife -- getting first dibs on new releases! ;) Pretty excited to have this one in hand! #sleeplikeababy #aurorateagarden #charlaineharris
pickWhew! That was a fast listen! None of the Aurora Teagarden books are very long, but this just zoomed by in 2 Days.
The story was tight; the characters are old friends by now; and I‘m current on yet another series now 🙂
Starting this today 😊. It should be a quick one...
Started reading this book this morning. Thank you to @stmartinspress for sending me an advanced copy! I'm almost halfway through it and really intrigued by the mystery this story is centered around. Trouble does not stray far from Roe Teagarden!

Book mail! Thank you to @stmartinspress for sending me the next book of the Aurora Teagarden mysteries by Charlaine Harris! I binge read books 1-9 last year and really enjoyed them so I'm looking forward to seeing what Aurora is up to now.
