Book Club meets on Thursday ... so I guess its about time to actually, you know, read the book 😬🤷♀️
pickI didn‘t read this in October but I have several Christmas reads from this series on my iPad. I figured I should read the first in the series to get introduced to the characters and setting. It held my interest enough to read more.
I don‘t usually read out of order, but I‘m making an exception with this and the Lucy Stone series for #BookedByHoliday reads.

so-soThis is a pleasant enough little story. Very quick and light, which is perhaps a little disconcerting for a murder mystery (I'm not used to cozies that are quite this...cozy). Not sure I'll continue with the series, but this was a fun diversion. The included recipes make me want to bake, but I'm skeptical about whether they'd actually turn out well or not.
Pretty spot to wait out my teen's field trip and listen to an audiobook. Lots of surfers and shore birds (and flies). Glad I brought my sun hat!
pickTeam read done and I really enjoyed it. I like a cosy mystery and Hannah is very likeable. Plus this had an extra short story that was very sweet. The recipes included was a lovely touch 4* 51pts for #TeamSlaughter #Scarathlon

pickWeek 3 #scarathlon total for #teamslaughter = 9250
🎉🥳🎃
This week, I read 4 books including our buddy read, which was light and fluffy and fun, if not terribly believable. And loook, I found a Hallmark movie for it! Maybe I‘ll have to watch it 🤔 #spookoween
Well week 3 done and it was a good one. Total for the week was 13,050. Most of which come from finding the team words in the books I'm reading.

so-soI enjoyed Hanna‘s sarcastic demeanor, and who doesn‘t love a cookie bakery & a moody cat, but it honestly felt like a generic cozy. Strong setting can make a cozy stand out, but descriptions of Lake Eden weren‘t particularly vivid or memorable. Narrator was good. #3stars #teamread #mystery #scarathalon22 #TeamSlaughter #31by31
so-soI didn‘t love the main character in this series, but I liked the mystery and the conclusion. Amateur sleuths in these types of books can be so judgmental when they‘re solving crimes, you know? 🤣
pickI originally had planned to read the Karin Slaughter book, but it turns out I had already read it, so I thought I'd try this one for the team read and I really liked it! I've already read the second book, and I plan on continuing. #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter @Clwojick

My friend sent this too me and it was too perfect not to share! #Scarathalon #TeamSlaughter @Clwojick
pickFinished our #teamslaughter #buddyread book. It‘s humorous & delicious ( I mean with all those recipes!) I enjoyed listening to it. Good read, like the MC but I felt she is bit over enthusiastic with everything.

I don't know if it's because I read SO MUCH the first week, but I did not get as much done this week for #Scarathlon2022. Here's my word list for this week's game. My total number of points is 1648.

Okay, so I went a liiiiiiiittle bit overboard with the #wordsearch #game for #Scarathlon2022 this week 😁
I spent hours and hours poring over countless dictionaries, whenever I read a book words that fit jumped at me; it took me ages to find sleep because I mulled over the word lists...
Hot, tie, hip, rip, dip, lip, top, lop, mop, ice, hat, pat, rat, mat
Prim, late, cook, peel, heel, heal, cool, tram, drip, chip, home, chop, reed, door, root, dirt, trim, date, deer, dock, hock, lock, teak, peak, leak, mate, hate, luck, much, lord, duke, turn, pine, pike, rook, duck, look, leap, deep, leek, seek, tram, dram, race, pace, lace, make, tack, chat

I enjoyed this read very much! I liked that even though it‘s a cozy mystery set in a small town, it didn‘t feel sterile or bland- there were some real weirdos in there! 🤣

Using a #TeamSlaughter #BuddyRead for the #ScarathlonDailyPrompts #PhotoChallenge for Day 7: #Victim. I have yet to read this one, but the synopsis states one of our MC‘s customers is found murdered behind her bakery amidst her chocolate chip cookies and she decides to investigate!
#Scarathlon2022
pickThis was fun! This is my first “cozy” mystery that I‘ve ever read, and the recipes sound amazing! I wrote them all down and want to try them soon, yummy! Finished #scarathlon2022 buddy read for #teamslaughter 🔪
Starting one of our #TeamSlaughter reads for #Scarathlon I‘d say murder definitely qualifies as #Crime for the #DailyPrompt
pickAn enjoyable but slow cozy mystery this one. Dairy delivery guy without an enemy in the world is shot behind the MC‘s cookie shop. Doofus of a detective gets the cookie shop owner to pretty much do all the work to solve the murder. Cookie shop owner apparently has a perfect IQ because she knows everything and her 4–year-old niece talks like she‘s 30. So I suspended reality a lot, but I enjoyed the mystery. #teamslaughter #buddyread #scarathlon
pickI enjoyed our #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter #TeamBook. It was a cute cozy mystery with yummy cookie recipes. I listened on audio, but think that I might actually have preferred to read it, as the voices the narrator used didn‘t mesh well with my mental image of the characters.

Read for Team Buddy Read #2 I‘ve been avoiding this one because I think it‘s going to trigger my sugar-switch-let‘s-double-chin-it-cookie-munching-brain-circuits. I sacrifice a lot for #TeamSlaughter 🍪🍪

so-soFinished listening to the team read. This is the second book in the series I‘ve read and I found them both to be on the slow side. Also, the MC is supposed to be in her twenties but seems more like a middle aged woman. (Maybe because they were first published before cell phones and such?) #teamslaughter #scarathlon @Clwojick
When you take your kid to a playdate and come home with the creeping crud, you're entitled to spend the day under a fuzzy blanket with coffee and a comfort read, right?
#teamslaughter #buddyread #reread
Starting this one now for #scarathlon2022 #buddyread #teamslaughter 🍪
I‘m going to past my first two pages (front and back) of matches for #Scarathlons week one game now. Hopefully I‘ll still have time to do some more, but for now I have 267 books which have something in common with our team reads. So 2670 points for #TeamSlaughter! Woohoo
pickJust finished reading #TeamSlaughter #TeamBook & it was amazing!!! It kept me on the edge of my seat, did not see the ending coming!!! Can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series. #Scarathlon @Clwojick
I only got about 8 hours total for #20in4 but I still made a lot of progress, especially for #scarathlon. I finished An Unfortunate Demise, listened a lot to Good Omens, started #teamslaughter #buddyread Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder and made progress on a few others.
Never read a cozy mystery before, but here we go!
#scarathlon2022 book #2

pickThis was somewhere between so-so and a pick, so I'll be generous and round up to a pick. I have a question for people who have read more in this series; I'll put that below in the comments with a spoiler tag.
#TeamSlaughter #buddyread #Scarathlon2022 @clwojick
It‘s time to Read For Your Life! Here are your 10 books for #TrappedOnAnIsland, @Emilymdxn
Happy reading 🤓
Had every intention of reading more for #20in4 today, but ended watching these Hallmark mysteries instead. (And bonus: three are based on books.) #scarathlon2022 #teamslaughter
Good morning my fellow #TeamSlaughter today officially kicks off the #Scarathlon I'm so excited to get my reading on. The first book I'm going to read is our team book, been wanting to read this series for a while now. What book are you starting with? @Clwojick
Went to the library with my daughter today, it‘s our new favorite place! I‘m ready for the scarathlon and little bean is excited for more books! #scarathlon #scarathlon2022 #teamslaughter
pickReally enjoyable book! A lovely little appetite-whetter for #scarathlon2022 as well. I found this cosy and fun, with just a few bits that made me roll my eyes too much or disagree with the MC too hard. It‘s exactly what I expected and it fitted the vibe for getting into autumn reading with a cosy murder mystery set in a cookie shop perfectly.
