Welcome to Litsy!

A great start to this series, of which I read the 4th book first 😂 It was published in 2002, so the technology bits feel pretty outdated, but the characters are good. I‘ve requested the second book in the series.

#SundayFunday
1️⃣ Tagged is the first book I will start this year (once I get off Litsy haha)
2️⃣ This year I am really looking forward to reading stories with my nephew, who is four months old today 🥰
3️⃣ My bookish resolution is to keep reading what I want to read and use reading challenges as inspirations rather than requirements

I read this in a day ❤️ I just wish I had gotten all of the Thumps DreadfulWater mysteries out of the library so I could just binge them all

Suspense and mystery stack from the library so I‘m going to put “Gentleman in Moscow “ down and start Dreadful Water in honour of TIFF (Toronto Film Festival) starting and Thomas King‘s Inconvenient Indian is premiering. A HUGE positive of Covid is movies are streaming on line 🎉so I don‘t have to be in Toronto to go to TIFF.

I had a great time getting to know Thumps DreadfulWater, a cop-turned-photographer who can't turn off his investigative instincts. He heads up a cast packed with tribal leaders, teenage protesters, real estate agents, coroners, bookstore owners, current cops, and security guards, all of whom are so intriguing that the murder mystery is really just a bonus. I'll look forward to my next outing with them.

Crime fiction + sorta-poutine (cheese curds are expensive so I used regular cheese).

A great whodunit with a firm tongue-in-cheek touch. First book I finished for @DeweysReadathon! #Readathon #DiverseDetectives

"Clarence Fellows was Sterling's nephew, a young, muscular man just out of community college who thought of himself as a sports car. Especially when it came to women. When it came to work, however, Clarence was more an old bus with four flat tires and a dead battery." #DiverseDetectives
Thomas King kills me every time.
