Welcome to Litsy!

My #Chatterday vibe is field trip. Headed to Kailua to visit a local bookstore & my favorite Japanese grocery & favorite natural foods store.

It‘s a 30-40 pretty drive depending on traffic so I can get a chunk of the audiobook of the second in this Decoupage Mystery series for #ThematicCozies March #Hobby I liked the first book so I‘m continuing. Fueled by coffee & a tuna onigiri/musubi

Looking forward to a relaxing Saturday. 😌

Still Knife Painting is the first book in the Paint and Shine series featuring Miranda Trent who moves back to Kentucky when she inherits her uncles farm house. She starts a business for tourists who want to have a local cultural experience with painting and moonshine.

Some characters didn‘t really make sense. But I enjoyed the premise and setting, and I would read the next book. For the #hobby theme, this has art, hiking, cooking & distilling!

Finished the audiobook this weekend as I ran errands, I enjoyed this pick for #ThematicCozies March #Hobby Brenna has been in her small New England town, a refugee of Boston where the art gallery she ran was violently robbed. She teaches decoupage art in the paper craft store her friend Tenley owns & gets involved in solving the mayor‘s death when her landlord is accused. The characters show promise & I like that there⬇️

I thoroughly enjoyed this cozy mystery. I felt like I could be friends with the main character, the New Orleans setting was fun, and the mystery kept me guessing. Plus, I picked up a lot of great scrapbooking tips! I‘ll read more of this series. This was my March pick for #ThematicCozies. #Hobby .⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My #ThematicCozies picks for March: #Hobby I picked two in case I don‘t like one. Both are first in series & free with my Audible membership. The tagged book is probably most on theme. ✂️

I enjoy scrapbooking, and I‘m hoping to pick up some tips as I read this book for the March #Hobby prompt for #ThematicCozies. What hobbies will everyone else be exploring?

All are welcome. Let me know if you‘d like to be added to the tag list.

Now I‘ve got this one and the bookstore. I was going to get the Paris related ones but changed my mind. If they ever come out with a New York public library or a library of Alexandria I‘ll be thrilled.
