April 2025 #Book 5 last book read that month.
This was for #CBBC I think the book sent was the second in the series but I wanted to read first book #1.
The typical cozy mystery. Here the mystery and plot was related with knitting 🧶 which I don‘t do but it was interesting. The murder was more violent I could say than the typical cozy stories I have read. I already read book #2. 3⭐️

April 2025 Book #4
I enjoyed this book inspired my true events. I was absorbed in the book but also I was searching for some historical events. I like the author‘s writing style. Love the cover. After I finished the book, I bought three more books by this author. Couldn‘t finish them this month but looking forward to read them later. 3.8/4⭐️

Soubhiville I like this author too 🙂 1d

Gissy @Amiable That edition has like 503 and then the acknowledgement and then the first chapter of a new novel😳so it will be more pages. I didn‘t want to read that first chapter because I bought the book and I will read it later. The book has deckled pages, which I love, and usually they looked like book have less pages. 24h
Gissy @Soubhiville I read The Rose Code and I also liked it and I bought like three more books😄 24h

March 2025 Book #4
I really enjoyed this book about two families and the matriarchal way to raise their families. So different. During my reading I was mad with Mrs Willoughby and more in the side of Mrs. Fowler. But then you follow each family, their sons and daughters through their lives and you will understand each side of the story. This is really a story about family dynamics and each and changes in each generation. So well written and⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) so well described. Loved it. 4.5⭐️
I‘m late @Leahbergen in my #PersephoneClub2025 and 2024😂But I will read them eventually because I‘m enjoying each book so much. And…I love my Persephone editions.😍

rubyslippersreads I‘m glad I‘m not the only one who‘s behind. Somehow I completely missed reading October‘s #PersephoneClub book. 🫢 2w
Gissy @rubyslippersreads I‘m currently reading a book from last year list Harriet. I eventually will read them but I‘m a slow reader and I wanted to read so many books from different challenges that I know I will be behind from the rest of the group☹️But I can‘t read faster😫 2w

Narrator Enka has befriended Mathilda in art school. Mathilda is everything Enka ever wanted to be. When a cutting-edge technology allows her to inhabit Mathilde‘s mind and access her memories and artistic inspirations, Enka can‘t refuse. What follows is intense and bizarre and somehow very believable. The book does a great job exploring themes like greed, envy, deceit and corruption in the context of amazing art and technology

The Diva Cooks a Goose | Krista Davis

Pickpick

This book is my favorite so far in The Diva series. It's #4. Davis decided to put the murderer right out there. Of course, I didn't realize this genuis of hers until the book was almost over. I just never thought she'd do that, and I applaud her for it.

It's Christmas, and Sophie's brother's sister-in-law is framed for murder. Of course, you know Sophie is going to help if she can. I honestly kept thinking it was one of two people.
