Welcome to Litsy!

Another henge, another unidentified body. But, wait, there are 2 bodies, and one is not ancient. Nelson and Ruth find themselves working a familiar scenario. Ruth also thinks she‘s seen a ghost, but it‘s not who she thinks it is. Stone circles, mysterious rituals, dead girls, kidnapping, revelation upon revelation. This novel is packed! And so satisfying. This series just gets better and better. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another great book in this series. I read it in read time. I am emotionally invested in the lives of the characters I feel like I am involved in a soap opera. 4.5⭐

Another book for the #SeriesRead2022 challenge !

1️⃣ Tagged, The Sone Circle by Elly Griffiths
2️⃣ Immortal Rising (ARC)

This is new from Andrew. Feel free to play along.

Enjoyable as the eleventh in an ongoing series, I thought the mystery was a bit weak. It harks back to the first book in the series and feels like a kind of remix, even though it‘s not. Fun, but not where I‘d recommend anyone to start.

With Christmas more or less all packed away it‘s time to sit down & see what‘s happening down in Norfolk with Ruth & Nelson & co. I think I come back to this series for the characters more than the mysteries. I‘m not saying the mysteries are bad (they aren‘t) but they are only one component of my enjoyment of this series.

Ruth and Nelson receive anonymous letters eerily reminiscent of those in the first book. But Erik is dead, isn't he?

The person I had marked down as the culprit was guilty but not of the main crime. Still, I was half right. We had enough archaeology and Cathbad to keep me going, as I was wondering whether to give up on this series.

Read a book in a day, which equals a really good day.

More lakeside reading.

Morning solitude. I can't believe I have to leave this place tomorrow to go back to social distancing in the city (and work)!

Isolate and read 💓

A little cosy mystery comfort reading! 😍📚

The past is reaching out for Ruth and Nelson as they have been receiving threatening letters regarding finding the body of Margaret Lacey who was murdered 30 years ago. I enjoyed Griffiths writing, well-drawn characters and plot mixed with archeology and murder. The series should be read in order in regards to the complex relationships involved. Recommended to those who love British mystery thrillers.

The work week is over! 🍾🥂😍 So time to get stuck into #LitsyPartyofone

Got hot chocolate and an orange to keep me going as I read the next section of the Group Read of Stone Circle by Elly Griffiths and aim to finish John Henry Days before the end of month for #AuthoraMonth. Just as well it is a leap year because gives me the extra day I will need!

What are you reading?

Today I started book 11 in the Ruth Galloway Series. This is one of my favourite series and really looking forward to this. If you enjoy good crime / mystery or suspense books with great characterisation you need to read these. 😍

Schedule of the Group Read of #TheStoneCircle, Book 11 in the excellent Ruth Galloway Series. This group read is taking place on Librarything.

Ideal book for #Norfolk in the #Separatedbyapondtour.

Another great instalment in the series. The mystery is interesting though I found myself more curious about their own lives than the murder. I hadn't figured out the killer which is always a good thing. The story itself is steady and detailed. The ending was really good and left me wanting another story. I need to know what will happen with Ruth and Nelson, I'm still not sure how I want it to finally end. I love Cathbad. 4*

On the school run reading whilst waiting for my daughter and spot a place very close to home. I live minutes away from Scarning Fen and it's beautiful. These books have always been local but never this local.

4.5⭐ finished the most recent Ruth Galloway book. Can't wait for the next one.

This is my favorite mystery series, and this was another good reading experience. The case echos the one in the first book, and there are several connections to the original story. As always, there‘s just as much happening between the recurring characters as in the mystery. I can‘t wait to see what‘s next for Ruth.

I moved in December and my new place has a room for (not quite) all my books. This big chair is becoming my #FavoriteReadingSpot and it will be even better now that I have found this little table where I can put my drink. I hope to finish the tagged book in here this weekend. #SelfImprovementSept

This book doesn‘t fit any of the reading goals I just set for September but I think I‘m going to read it over this holiday weekend! This is my favorite series.

As always I loved being back with Ruth, Nelson & their archeological mysteries. I wish I was just discovering this series so I wouldn't have to wait for book 12!

Nearly half way through and enjoying this one immensely! It's #11 in my favourite series.

This really has become my favorite series. This most recent book has references to the first book, and takes the reader down some blind alleys that make it more difficult to figure out whodunnit. More archaeology in this book than the last couple, which I enjoyed.

“Why didn‘t you tell me that you knew Leif?” says Judy
“You didn‘t ask,” says Cathbad.

This cracked me up, because I have gotten the same answer so many times from my husband that it‘s a family joke. I showed this to him, and he howled😂

Started this book this morning while I was waiting to see the surgeon for my post-op checkup. Got the best news, that the pathology was negative. So I don‘t have to worry about that and can focus on Ruth‘s latest mystery. (Raided my grandson‘s rock collection for the picture 😂 )

I very much enjoyed this latest installment about Dr Ruth Galloway and the other great characters! #books

Went a little farther afield today, as I feel better and have more energy after surgery. Hubby took me to lunch at our favorite Greek place, then wanted to go to the main library. Who am I to say no?😎 Picked up these two for me. I haven‘t read a Lady Emily mystery in quite a while, and of course l couldn‘t resist the latest Ruth Galloway installment.

This is what I picked to read this month, it does seem a lot but hopefully will manage them all or most! #tbr

I was happy to see this series get back to the archaeology at least a LITTLE bit. I still hate the love triangle and wish she would resolve it!! Happy the series is still going, though, so I guess I shouldn‘t complain too much!!

Lots of reading outside today. ❤️🇺🇸

I was going to head to the beach today but decided I didn‘t want to fight holiday traffic. Plus, staying home means more reading time!

Really enjoyed finishing this latest Ruth Galloway mystery on my front porch with my morning tea.

I'm so excited for this #ReleaseDay book!

ARC of the 11rh in the Ruth Galloway series. A 2nd henge is found near the site of the henge from Ruth and Nelson‘s 1st case together. Then both Ruth and Nelson start to receive letters very like those from that case-but the original writer is dead. Things really start to heat up when the bones of a young female are found at the henge site. Love this series-fantastic addition. Interesting mystery and series is moved along well. 4.5/5.0 ⭐️ #2019

Decided to try to participate in the #24B4Monday readathon even though my younger son has a soccer tournament all weekend and we are going to see Avengers Endgame tonight. Started this morning but forgot to set my timer😕😝 Oh, well! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishers and NetGalley for a copy of this book for an honest review.

11th installment Ruth Galloway series, Ruth and DCI Nelson are haunted by a ghost from their past, just as their future lands on shaky ground. They have received letters similar to those from the past and Ruth has discovered more human bones during her present archeological dig called The Stone Circle, another henge on the saltmarsh.

Friday night fever!

It‘s a great day when you come home to a book you‘ve been anxiously awaiting. All the way from The UK to VA! Can you tell I‘m excited to start this one???

Exited about this one! Number 11 in the series.
