pickI honestly think this addition to the Hamish Macbeth books was one of the greatest ones I have read yet! I love the friendship made between Hamish & James! And I'm glad Hamish ended with another love interest!
so-soThis one was extra jarring & felt like a totally different series. Just when I finally had gotten used to the 2nd narrator, this one has a different one. Everything felt off in this one. Sigh. 3⭐️

pickI‘ve read all of the Agatha Raisin books in the regular series but somehow never got to this one. I usually listen to the audiobooks but I read this one with my eyeballs & it was pretty funny. The usual Agatha hijinks and a dead body or two. 4⭐️ 80 points

so-soA prequel to the Agatha Raisin series (#SeriesLove2024) that is set as Agatha begins her PR business. It was okay and like many novella struggled to truly tell the story. Not at all necessary to reading the rest of the series.
pickThe latest in the Hamish Macbeth series is kind of a tie-in to events that happened in the previous book. Green‘s contribution to the series has made the narrative a bit more polished, which I think has made the characters and setting fresher and in some ways has revitalized the series.
I can tell I am that distracted that I forgot to take a photo of the book before returning it to the library! So, enjoy a photo of #SebastianKitty #CatsOfLitsy !
so-soI stumbled upon the short story that looks at Agatha‘s first case, way before she moves to the Cotswolds. It was okay. Short stories are hard for me, as I much prefer the development from a novel, but it was an interesting intro to Agatha Raisin. The audio is not a Penelope Keith audio, so I really missed her narration of this. #BBRC #Adult #LongStoryShort #52BookClub24 #AnApostropheInTheTitle

pickThe first Agatha Raisin written by R.W. Green, and it felt so much like the older Agatha Raisin books! Humor, danger, and way more about the murder than Agatha‘s concerns over her love life. And, Penelope Keith as the voice narrator! Great listen!
so-soAn “in between” short story featuring Agatha Raisin that did not quite work. Agatha hosts a Christmas party for a few seniors, and one dies. Agatha is then concerned about the aftermath…vague, so I don‘t give away too many details.
Short stories are very hit or miss for me, often lacking in development and detail. This story, while it hits the plot points, seems a bit convoluted, more than a usual Agatha Raisin story. Oh well!
picki enjoyed this short read of Agatha Raisin‘s first case after opening her own agency. i haven‘t read any other Agatha Raisin books before. i am going to go back and start from the first of the series.
this book had good characters. Agatha is a real pistol.
