Welcome to Litsy!

I just finished this week‘s short story for #noplacelikeholmes. Now, I‘m ready for Saturday‘s discussion.

📚Sherlock Holmes - murder mysteries set in Europe
📚Assassin‘s Apprentice - Google says Realm Of The Elderlings is set in a world resembling the panhandle of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.
📚My Healthy Noggin - It‘s nonfiction so it‘s not set anywhere.
📚Replay - I don‘t know what state this book is set in. All I know is that the characters are in college.

Assassin‘s Apprentice (#realmofelderlings), I need to catch up on the buddy read.

My Healthy Noggin (#roll100), I probably won‘t finish it this month.

The Mysterious Affair At Styles (#christiescapers), I just started it last night but I‘ll be able to finish it. This book mentioned Sherlock Holmes in the first chapter. I thought that was interesting.

#currentlyreading

I just finished this week‘s short story for #noplacelikeholmes. I‘m glad to hear Stephen Fry narrating again because he didn‘t read the one about the cardboard box. I don‘t know if there‘s any other stories in the canon that he didn‘t narrate. I guess I‘ll find out which other stories are not included in this as I‘m reading the canon.

I finished the short story for #noplacelikeholmes.

I didn‘t realize that it was already time to read the next short story for #noplacelikeholmes but I just looked at the reading schedule that I took a screenshot of and saved to my photos in my phone and it is time. I‘m glad I saved the schedule. I don‘t know how long it‘ll take for me to read this short story. I can‘t believe we‘re almost done reading the canon but I‘m glad we‘re doing it together and that I‘m not doing it by myself.

I just finished the short story that I was supposed to read for #noplacelikeholmes.

I started the short story I didn‘t read last week for #noplacelikeholmes. I started it last night before bed. I‘m almost done. I have chapters 6 and 7 and the epilogue to read now. While listening to the short story, I finished a Cross stitch picture I started and then colored these pictures on some color by number apps I have.

I need to read this week‘s short story from Sherlock Holmes for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. I haven‘t read it yet because I was busy downloading my Kindle books from Amazon but I‘m done doing that. I started on Wednesday and I finished downloading at 4 AM on Saturday. I have 3,000+ books so it took forever and I didn‘t feel like dealing with it but I didn‘t want to lose my ebooks. I got finished before February 26.

I finally read Part 1 of this week‘s short story. I didn‘t realize that it was already time to start on it. I enjoyed the first part of this story but it took me longer to get through it because there were 7 chapters to listen to and they‘re not short chapters either. I think the chapters are about 20 or 30 minutes long. I started this first part yesterday and only had the last chapter to listen to today. Now, I‘m caught up.

#noplacelikeholmes

I finally finished this week‘s short story “The Second Stain”.

#noplacelikeholmes

I read this week‘s short story “The Abbey Grange” for #noplacelikeholmes. I‘m ready for Saturday‘s discussion.

I read this week‘s short story “The Missing Three-Quarter”.

This book counts for:

☑️ 3 readathons - #wintergames, #bookspinbingo, #noplacelikeholmes

☑️ 1 hr of reading (This short story only took 1 hr to read.)

☑️ TBR Read (The short stories from Sherlock Holmes are on my TBR for this month.)

#christmaschapterchasers #xmaschacha

I finished this week‘s short story “The Golden Pince Nez”.

This counts for:

☑️3 readathons (#bookspinbingo, #wintergames & #noplacelikeholmes)

☑️ 1 hour of reading (The short stories in this collection are usually 1 hour.)

☑️TBR Read (I have to read it anyway because I‘m participating in a readalong of Sherlock Holmes.)

#christmaschapterchasers #xmaschacha

☑️TBR Read

#christmaschapterchasers #xmaschacha

For #weeklyfavorites, I finished this week‘s short story “The Six Napoleons” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong but I haven‘t finished any other books. I DNF‘d 2 books this week. I‘m reading another book right now but I‘m not liking it that much.

I finished listening to this week‘s short story “The Six Napoleons” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. I‘m ready for tomorrow‘s discussion.

I finished this week‘s short story “Charles Augustus Milverton” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong.

I finished this week‘s short story “Black Peter” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. I‘m ready for tomorrow‘s discussion.

Even though my dog just passed away, I still want to keep participating in #noplacelikeholmes and #whimsicalreadsbookclub because these books don‘t require any brain power. Right now, I feel like I only want to read books that don‘t require a lot of brain power so all of my nonfiction books from Netgalley will not be read until I‘m in a better headspace so basically, I just want to mood read.

I finished this week‘s short story “The Priory School”.

I‘m counting this short story for:

☑️Autumn or spooky read
☑️1 hr of reading
☑️4 readathons (#spookoween, #noplacelikeholmes, #bookspinbingo & #hauntedshelf)

#skeletoncrew

I read this week‘s short story “The Adventure Of The Solitary Cyclist” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong and I found these words for the #wordsearch.

#skeletoncrew #hauntedshelf

For #hauntedshelf, I read this week‘s short story “The Adventure Of The Solitary Cyclist” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. I‘m also going to do the #wordsearch on this one and see what words I find.

This book counts for:

☑️1 hour of reading
☑️Spooky/Autumn read (Not scary. These stories are murder mysteries set in England.)

#skeletoncrew

I‘ve gotten a lot of points this week just from doing the #wordsearch for #hauntedshelf, counting the 1 hour of reading for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong and counting the spooky or autumn reads. It‘s a lot to track and keep up with and I‘m also reading Netgalley ARCs. During #scarathlon last year, using the Autofill feature saved me a lot of time when I was filling in my spreadsheet all month so I‘m definitely using Autofill again.

For this week‘s short story “The Adventure Of The Dancing Men”, I found these words.

This book counts for:

☑️Spooky or Autumn read
☑️a readathon
☑️1 hour of reading (the short stories from Sherlock Holmes are 58 minutes long)

#hauntedshelf #noplacelikeholmes #skeletoncrew

For last week‘s short story “The Adventure Of The Norwood Builder”, I found these words. I didn‘t think about doing the word search for these short stories. I‘m counting the Sherlock Holmes short stories as spooky or autumn reads because they‘re cozy murder mysteries set in England but they‘re not scary and I‘m counting the #noplacelikeholmes readalong as a readathon.

☑️1 hour of reading done

#wordsearch #hauntedshelf #skeletoncrew

I just finished listening to this week‘s short story. I‘m ready for the discussion tomorrow. I‘m going to count this readalong towards the #hauntedshelf readathon. I forgot to add it to my spreadsheet so I‘m going to do that and I didn‘t realize that I could do the word search for the short stories too.

I‘m reading Never Lie by Freida McFadden right now but I‘m not going to get finished with it before the end of the month so I‘ll finish it next month. I had a lot going on over the weekend so I didn‘t have time to read anything and I‘m too tired tonight.

I just finished reading this week‘s short story called “The Adventure Of The Crooked Man” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. I liked it. I didn‘t get to participate in today‘s discussion because I went out to lunch today with my mom, my brother, my sister in law, my mom‘s boyfriend and his youngest daughter to celebrate our July birthdays. Then my mom and I went back home and I decided to take a nap for the rest of the afternoon. I‘m tired.

I just finished listening to this week‘s short story “The Adventure Of The Reigate Puzzle” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. I‘m looking forward to participating in the discussion this week after not being able to participate last week because I was hit by Hurricane Beryl over here in SE TX.

I just finished reading last week‘s short story “The Adventure Of The Musgrave Ritual” for the #noplacelikeholmes readalong. It makes me sad that I couldn‘t participate in the discussion last week because Hurricane Beryl hit us here in Southeast TX. It knocked out my power and my internet. My power is back on but I still don‘t have internet. I‘ve been feeling sad since it happened.
