Welcome to Litsy!

I still like the Peabody series better, but that may be partly because I read them first and have reread them all at least twice. That being said, I did enjoy the mystery, the secondary characters, and John Smythe. He reminds me of Sethos from the Peabody series, and I adore Sethos. Also, appreciate the lack of gore and violence that is found in more modern crime thrillers. Barbara Rosenblat does a great job narrating, as always.

#20series20days The Vicky Bliss series

Not all the novels in this series are wonderful, but Street of the Five Moons and Trojan Gold are. And Night Train to Memphis is my favourite comfort read. There is also a prequel of sorts - The Camelot Caper.

Love this follow up. Once again, you have to take the story in the context in which it was set but I love how independent Vicky is and how she cooperates when needed. The scheme the villains are operating is quite genius when you think about it. Makes me wonder how many fakes are actually out there.

Dinner and a good book! I'm re-reading on of my favorites, the second Vicky Bliss book. #cozymystery #cozy #suspense #bookswithbanter #amreading #reread

I love re-reading Elizabeth Peters. Her books are light and fun but also touch on topics and themes that are as timely today as they were when the book was published over 40 (!) years ago. #cozymystery #mystery #suspense

Nursing a strained muscle in my back and enjoying my go-to indulgent character, Vicky Bliss, on this dreary, cold afternoon. #OctoberPhotoChallenge #GirlCrush
