What a wonderful #staycation box, @kspenmoll ! I adore it all. It‘s lovely that you included Gifts from the Sea, which I did not own, and the medieval mystics is exactly what I was looking for. A very fun #staycationintime awaits.

So many emotions ran through me while reading this book: deep sadness,anger,awe.It‘s the story of a mentally handicapped man,who works in a dry cleaning business that Brunetti‘s wife Paola frequents.She learns he has died & she asks Brunetti to look into his death.As a favor to her he does,but finds no trace of the man- it‘s as if he didn‘t exist.Is his “viper” of a mother or his Aristocratic father‘s family involved in his death?
I had to go for fasting bloodwork this morning so I treated myself to a coffee & a breakfast sandwich - of course while reading. ☕️🥯📙
Another purchase yesterday from Good Books in the Woods, a fantastic bookstore in The Woodlands north of Houston.
Two of several books I bought at Murder by the Book in Houston.
My mood is sending me to Venice. Just went outside, the rain stopped, still overcast, but the temp rose to 63, so it feels like I am enveloped in balmy steam on my sidewalk. #serieslove2025
pickA Venetian librarian calls Brunetti with news of a terrible theft and defacing of priceless ancient books. A horrific murder occurs of “Tertullian”, an ex-priest,who is often reading at the same table as a thief. A multitude of suspects means an exhaustive methodical investigation. As always, many ancient are mentioned and discovered in the investigative process. #serieslove2025
Books, books, books! 8 books mentioned so far in the text & I am only on p. 115. I love the book talk between Brunetti & his wife, Paola.
