Miss Granby's Secret: Or, The Bastard of Pinsk | Eleanor Farjeon

pick

January 2025 Book #10
I know this one didn‘t work for everyone but it worked for me. I liked the idea of a novel within a novel. The drama in the novel aunt Addie wrote was so silly, maybe too long but I lol. It was like watching the movie Clue but without a murder. When you thought you had the answer another ridiculous situation appeared. It was fun but the ending also has nostalgic, sad moments for aunt Addie. I like these covers😍 3⭐️

In Plain Sight (Kate Burkholder, #10.5) | Linda Castillo

pick

Short novella. #10.5 in the Kate Burkholder series. Coming in at just less than 2 hours, I listened on my way to/from work over two days. Nothing new is added to the series, it‘s just an aside about an Amish teen that is run over by a car and survives, but just barely. Kate has to figure out who ran him over, and why.

I love this series. Painter‘s Mill OH has an oddly large amount of bad people living in it to be such a small Amish community 😂

A Gathering of Secrets: A Kate Burkholder Novel | Linda Castillo

pick

#10 in the Kate Burkholder series featuring the ex-Amish Chief of Police in Painter‘s Mill, OH-a small town with a large Amish population. The case involves the murder of an 18 y/o Amish male who was beloved by the community. As the investigation progresses, Kate finds that he wasn‘t a nice guy at all, and many of the local Amish are hiding big secrets. Kate is forced to re-examine trauma from her own past. Really good, but hard to read at times.

CBee This looks good! 2mo

JessClark78 @Yuki_Onna Did you start the book? I only read a little bit the night I posted this. Might start from the beginning when I get back to it. 1mo

Yuki_Onna No, I couldn't bring myself to start it anew yet. 😅 I read the first few pages last summer, but don't remember much. IF I bring myself to pick it up sometime soon, I must also start again from the beginning. But tbh I'm just not in the mood for this at the time being. What did you think of the part you read? 1mo

A Fatal Footnote | Margaret Loudon

so-so

I'm still finding the writing of the main character of this series a bit inconsistent, but overall, the story is interesting, so I'll continue the series. On to book 3. #10-2025

I just couldn't finish this book, it just drove me crazy. It was whiney and predictable.

Here‘s my picks for #bookspinbingo. #4 is my #bookspin pick and #10 is my #doublespin pick. My #bookspin pick is going to be Assassin‘s Apprentice by Robin Hobb for the #realmofelderlings readalong. I don‘t think I‘ll finish it this month because the audiobook is 17 hrs but I want to at least start it. My #doublespin will be a series I‘m finishing on my Kindle but I will be able to finish the series that I picked.
