January 2025 Book #7
My experience with short story collection is that like/enjoy some stories more than others just like this collection. Some of stories were so beautifully written, others in my humble opinion, were like beautiful expressions but didn‘t feel like a short story for me. 3.5⭐️

January 2025 Book #2
Dimpsie invited some friends from the theater to spend Christmas with him in his castle located in a private island near to Edinburgh. Dimpsie was found dead near to the tree which appear to be an accidental death…Dun Dun Dunnnand the drama begins….
Quite predictable 😏 with some funny scenes but predictable. I enjoyed it as a holiday read. It should be a so-so but I usually enjoy these crime classic stories🤷🏽‍♀️3⭐️

Much better score than last week (which was a 14! 😮) Three faves:
1. THE MALTESE FALCON: “When you're slapped, you'll take it and like it.“
2. GASLIGHT: “Are you suggesting that this is a knife I hold in my hand? Have you gone mad, my husband? Or is it I who am mad?“
3. 12 ANGRY MEN: [Juror #8]: “Well, I think testimony that can put a boy into the electric chair *should* be that accurate.“

Pretty good

I loved everything about this sweet romance! The right amount of spice and very lovable characters, except for Seth the dirtbag. I loved reading all the Indian phrases and words of endearment. I‘ve never been to India, but I love reading about Indian culture through the voices of characters like these. Book #8 in 2025

The Chapter by chapter Outlander series reread continues, as is finish book 7 and move on to #8. I was basically at the same stage as the TV show in the last few chapters so that kept me right where I needed to be. #06-2025

Final #Bookspin list of the year! I‘ll definitely be reading 1 and 7 for bookclubs, we‘ll see what else @TheAromaofBooks chooses from her magic bowl of numbers! ❤️💚📚

Read as one of my November #Roll100 picks (#8 Any #BOTM) I was sad when I heard Osman was detouring from writing his Thursday Murder Club series to start a new one but I need not have worried, this series has a similar style & humor & I have a feeling it will grow on me even more as it unfolds. As it was I had a blast with Amy, her father-in-law Steve & especially Rosie, a world famous author not just along for ⬇️

I did bag #8 late last night when we got home from driving to Toronto. Taylor Swift has been in Toronto for the last 2 weeks so hotels are premium priced and booked up so we didn‘t/couldn‘t stay over 😢 we had a quick visit with Beckett, saw his latest big project for one of his last 2 classes before he‘s done his degree and went to the Swedish Fair for lunch and to pick up our order of foodstuffs for Christmas ( John‘s dad‘s family is Swedish)
