Long and Short of It: Stories from the Chronicles of St. Maryas
Long and Short of It: Stories from the Chronicles of St. Maryas | Jodi Taylor
12 posts | 13 read | 3 to read
The first collection of previously published short stories set in the national-bestselling British madcap time-traveling series The Chronicles of St. Mary's. Behind the seemingly innocuous facade of St. Mary's Institute of Historical Research, a different kind of academic work is taking place. Just don't call it "time travel"--these historians "investigate major historical events in contemporary time." And they aren't your harmless eccentrics either; a more accurate description, as they ricochet around history, might be unintentional disaster-magnets. The Chronicles of St. Mary's tells the chaotic adventures of Madeleine Maxwell and her compatriots--Director Bairstow, Leon "Chief" Farrell, Mr. Markham, and many more--as they travel through time, saving St. Mary's Institute (too often by the very seat of their pants) and thwarting time-traveling terrorists, all the while leaving plenty of time for tea. The Long and Short of It collects all of Jodi Taylor's previously published St. Mary's short stories in one single volume. From Julius Caesar in Ancient Rome to a 1601 performance of Hamlet with Shakespeare himself playing the ghost, Max and the gang never seem to have trouble finding ways to insert themselves into prickly situations. And don't worry, there's plenty of Christmas cheer (and just a little of mischief) thrown in for good measure. Stories Included: When a Child is Born Roman Holiday Christmas Present Ships and Stings and Wedding Rings The Very First Damned Thing The Great St. Mary's Day Out My Name is Markham A Perfect Storm

#BookReport
I have been in a bit of a slump and not able to focus on reading things for challenges so I've been getting back into the St. Mary's books and binging through those. So it's been a productive reading week just not challenge wise.

#WeeklyForecast
Goal this week is to make big progress in Sea of Tranquility as I need to read it for work.

This was my February #BookSpin, my first completed BookSpin/DoubleSpin of the year—and I actually managed to read it in the month it was picked! 😂

This is definitely for fans of the main series: short stories featuring the beloved characters of St. Mary‘s in more hilarious adventures traveling through history. I loved getting to see perspectives other than Max‘s, as well as seeing the very beginning of St. Mary‘s. I thoroughly enjoyed these!

Saturday night book: collected St Mary‘s short stories. I‘ve read done of these already, but that didn‘t stop me picking this up at the library to fill in some gaps. Love this series.

A little #bookmail just in time to take my mind off the $230 that had to be coughed up for a new car battery today. I love my HEMI Charger, but the maintenance and repair bills are brutal. 💸💸💸💸

(Bonus #dogsofLitsy shot, too. #Pilot)

Tamra Ugh, I just hate spending on stuff like that bc I just see books I can't buy. 😏 7y
DGRachel @Tamra Right?!? 7y
Balibee146 I feel your pain. Hello Pilot you look like a very cuddly pooch 😍 7y
DGRachel @Balibee146 He's a snuggler for sure! At least, when he isn't mad at me for leaving the house without him. I should have taken him for a car ride after I got back with the new battery. He's been moping for the last two hours. 😂 7y
AmyG I feel your pain, too. Just spent $345 on a new garage door motor. ☹️ 7y

A new offering!!! The volume of short stories and a new one! I love Jodi Taylor, this series, and the narrator. And she tells how each short story was born! What a find!
