pickThis isn‘t a new series, but it‘s new to me. I‘m so excited to dive into an long series set in the National Parks.
Enjoying some strawberry basil lemonade and a mystery/thriller. I love quiet Saturday afternoons.
pickI wouldn't have made any of the decisions Anna makes in this book and I hope something happens to shake her out of the numbness she seems stuck in since the death of her husband. I enjoyed the mystery and I like that each of the books in the series features a different National Park but I'm hoping that Anna learns 1- self preservation and 2- a way to connect with people.
pickFinished last night! Had me guessing until the end! This isn‘t my typical fiction read, but I enjoyed the mystery and National Park setting. I‘ll be continuing along in the series! 3.5⭐️

Anna Pigeon, park ranger
Our protagonist "ran away from Manhattan to join the National Park Service" Each book is set in a different park where Anna solves solves murders, worries about natural resources (which are often behind the murders), and enjoys the company of local hunks. ?
@Andrew65
pickGreat lead female character and vivid descriptions of solving Murder in a National Park.

1. I‘m always up for an adventure but rural ones are my fave.
2. Mountains just hedges out beach for my fave.
3. Hiking
4. Home but if I‘m away I‘d rather be in an Airbnb (or the like) so I can cook for myself.
5. Such great descriptions of the outdoors!

1. City, so I can shop & eat 🏬
2. Mountains, because those areas are usually cool & dry 🏔
3. Swimming 🏊♀️
4. Camping, if it‘s cool & dry 🏕
5. All of the Anna Pigeon novels by Nevada Barr are good (& I guess, fun?); tagged is the first in the mystery series 📚
pickMy mom has been after me to try this series for a while now, and I finally got to it! I was afraid they‘d be very dated, but there were only a few things that made it feel old. It wasn‘t great, but it was entertaining and I can see how the series would develop into a good one, so I‘ll definitely check out more! This is my #femaledetective for #booked2019
pickWow! I enjoyed everything about this book! The outdoors, national parks, the mystery, the female heroine in this book, the suspense! Everything! Nick, my cat, approves as well 😁. I can't wait to read the next book in this series!
pickJury duty this morning helped me along with a little extra reading time while everyone else was trying not to stay. I‘ve finished this one and it was pretty good. I‘d say it was between a so so and a pick but it gets a pick because I really enjoyed the prequel I read before this one and I‘m invested in the characters so I‘ll probably read the next one.
We‘re all cuddled up listening to it rain/napping/reading. Perfect Sunday morning. #catsoflitsy #dogsoflitsy #petsoflitsy #rainydayreading
1. My water glass for work today.
2. Altered Carbon. Very strange but good.
3. Tagged book. Yes.
4. Sunny and cool
5. Ears pierced once each. That‘s it.
Bonus: picture of my kitty Biel scheming to get outside the other day when the weather was much nicer.

After reading The Rope for #whodunitbymail, I wanted to try the first book in the series. So far, so good! Thanks @Susanita for a great pick!
"From long experience she knew that she wore her loneliness like armor. Very few people ever recognized it for what it was. To the casual observer it looked very much like arrogance. Sometimes it was."
so-soThis was an ok read - decent enough mystery. The main character, Anna Pigeon, bothered me a bit - maybe could have been fleshed out a bit more. And, since I've worked in vet clinics, the mis-spelling of ketamine really bothered me. I did enjoy the environmental aspect of the book and also found the book quite progressive in its views of sexuality and feminism for a book published in 1993. I might read another by Nevada Barr.

pickLove the setting (Guadalupe Mountain National Park) although I figured out whodunnit about 2/3 through.
Leaving on vacation today, so I'm 100% reading a mystery novel set in a National Park.
pickI'm torn between like & so-so! I loved the descriptions of the park, the atmosphere, I liked the story but I wasn't too sure if I liked Anna. It doesn't really matter- I enjoyed it enough to request the next book from the library! 😂
I picked this up from the library- I'm hoping to read it this afternoon! 🙌🏼 I liked listening to Nevada Barr speak in the National Parks book!
