I've gone completely off my plan for April and started the month with two British mysteries. I've been so angry and anxious, spending time writing postcards to voters, making signs for protests, calling my reps, etc. These were both mysteries about a detective on vacation who couldn't help but work to turn the world to rights. It was probably the most relaxing thing I could've done for myself. Now, back to my planned reading and fighting fascism.

The MMC, Cormoran Strike, lost his leg to a land mine in Afghanistan.
so-soI love Poirot. I loved the mystery. I loathed all the other characters. Wednesday, my reading buddy, pictured, enjoyed Sunday reading cuddles.

pickLord Peter Wimsey book 6. Very good! I think Miss Climpson and Miss Murcheson deserve the credit for solving this one - they did all the work! I wish Sayers had written a spinoff series about Miss Climpson and the “Cattery.“

pickThe book was slow in some parts but I was hoooked from the start! I‘m excited that the second book will be an audiobook so I can binge it even quicker 😈🤣📚 I‘m really looking forward to see where this is going to go 😬
pickI don't remember when I last read this one - the joys of getting older and being able to forget every single thing about a Christie novel. It's one of her (underrated, in my opinion) novels with no Poirot or Miss Marple, just a cast of characters we get to know who solve the mystery on their own. Emily is delightfully plucky, brave and loyal. I really enjoyed it again!
pickNumber 3 in the Sandhamn Murders series is a clever interweaving of past and present to create a plausible motive and opportunity for murder. I really enjoyed the descriptions of winter on the island. Looking forward to number 4 to see how things turn out for the main characters. #SeriesLove2025
