The grandkid is gone so it's time to return the tagged book. She loved it - and that's an understatement! She asked each of us to read it an insane number of times per day over the holidays. So, I bought it online and it should reach her in a few weeks (kennys.ie aren't quick, but they're not Amazon and they ship within the EU).
I am not fully sold on the illustrations' German Swiss nostalgia, but I like the level of detail & the story is cute.

Dilara In fact, she pretty much knows it all by heart now: she can finish sentences, and if I change a word, she corrects me 😁. Here parents are probably going to be sick of it soon 😳 4h
AmyG My grandson, too, loves to read the same book over and over. He corrects me, too. 🤣 2h

The grandkid is quite taken with Gingerbread Baby! I read it too many times to count. And yesterday, we made gingerbread boys, babies, and other shapes. We did have to explain several times that they couldn't come alive: this only happens in stories 😁

We don't care that we spent the equivalent of a week's worth of groceries buying ourself almost daily treats last month. We're living in a hellscape and life is made bearable by boba, oreos, cheetos, cupcakes, brownies, croissants, parmesan garlic potato chips, ice cream.....

Liz_M (We also don't care that we don't know what day it is) 2mo
CBee I love this and wholeheartedly agree that the maximum amount of treats are needed these days. Tell me more about the Parmesan garlic potato chips though 🤤 2mo
Amiable Amen, snack sister! 🎯 2mo

Liz_M @CBee A US grocery chain (Wegmans) has them as one of their store-brand flavors. 2mo
CBee @Liz_M we don‘t have Wegman‘s where I am, darn 🤷‍♀️ 2mo
dabbe I could make a feast out of these yummy treats! I say the more the merrier--anything to help us through this hellscape (excellent description). 🧡💜💛 2mo

1. Book club winery visit with snacks. If you look closely, you can see me in the background at the counter.
2. Free map of Rohan from the game store.
3. Azaleas next to the side door at church.
4. Double header at the ballpark.
5. The website tomanlorenzo.com has given me joy for many years, especially during Oscars and Met Gala weeks.

Hi, Littens! I miss you! My store has been open since January and it‘s going great but I want to get back on Litsy much more. I have a question for the #cozymystery lovers: what are the top series that I should carry (some of them, not the entire series) at the bookstore? I read lots of mystery/thrillers but am not as familiar with cozies! Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Jess I‘m so excited your are open! I look forward to stopping by in the coming weeks. 7mo
Jas16 Congratulations on your bookstore! Are we able to support you through bookshop.org? 7mo
Ruthiella Congrats! I‘m not a cosy mystery reader myself, but I‘ll be interested in hearing what others think. Unless Richard Osman books are considered cosy? 🤔 I really like his Thursday Murder Club series as well as his newest 7mo

BookwormAHN I'm not sure about a series but pretty much anything by Ellery Adams is good. 7mo
Librarybelle Anything by Vicky Delany/Eva Gates is a winner! She writes several cozies (and a couple non-cozies). I also point people to Laurie Cass. I also love anything by Ellie Alexander. A good resource is the cozy mystery website: https://cozy-mystery.com/blog/most-popular-and-recommended-cozy-mystery-series/ . This links to a recommended list that is fairly recent. Oh, and M.C. Beaton—definitely recommend her books! 7mo
Bookwormjillk Congratulations! Where is your store again? My daughter‘s field hockey schedule has been bringing me to York and Lancaster this year. For cozies I like Vivien Chien‘s series or maybe there‘s a series that takes place near you? 7mo
BookmarkTavern I‘ve been enjoying the Bakeshop series by Ellie Alexander, the Record Shop series by Olivia Blacke, and the Stellar Investigations Detective Agency by Manjiri Prabhu. (edited) 7mo
Billypar A belated congrats! I didn't see this the first time, but i thought of you because Tom McAllister, who has an event at your store later in August, mentioned it on his podcast. My sister lives about a half hour away from you, so I'll have to stop by on a future visit! 3mo
LiteraryinPA @Jess Thank you!! 3mo
LiteraryinPA @Jas16 Yes, and pretty soon I‘ll have a website too! 3mo
LiteraryinPA @Bookwormjillk It‘s in Media, PA. Hope the field hockey season goes well! And thanks for the suggestions! 3mo
LiteraryinPA @Billypar Thanks! Yes, we just had that event this week and it went well. It would be so fun to see you while you‘re visiting your sister! 3mo

A soft pick but an improvement on the last book. Two mysteries take place in this one. One is fully solved while the second needs some more details given to us.
