This is part of a series set in a mystery bookshop owned by Samantha Washington: amateur sleuth and mystery writer. It was clever and fun, especially her poodles and her fiesty grandmother Nana Jo. I‘ll be reading the rest of the series❣️

I have loved all the Amish murder mysteries Castillo has written with her Kate Burkholder character. This one is a so-so police procedural that I stuck with bc I was audio-crafting, -driving, and -doing chores.

“The murders took place on a hot summer night, but to Juniper it would always be winter in Jericho.”

First book of November. Surprising ending to a small town double-murder mystery.

Stan and Elpidia both need to fight back and defend themselves; Elpidia from peer bullies and Stan from his alcoholic dad. The recluse Charlie helps them learn. A MG story of friendship, morality, and growing up strong 💪

The Daylight Gate | Jeanette Winterson

I did not enjoy this book, possibly because it was so different from what I was expecting. I thought it would be a fictional, but fairly accurate, account of the Pendle Witch Trials, which took place in Lancashire, England in 1612. Instead, although it was based on facts, the author included some really wild speculative aspects to the story. ⬇️

julieclair The narrative was disjointed and hard to follow, and there were so many different characters it was hard to keep them straight (including a completely bizarre cameo appearance by William Shakespeare). The scenes of daily life in Lancashire were depressing, the treatment of the imprisoned accused witches was horrific, and the depictions of the witches' actions were gruesome and macabre. Triggers all over the place. ⬇️ 3w
julieclair I don't know if this technically counts as a horror book, as I rarely read that genre, but it sure felt like one to me.
Most months, my #BookedInTime selection is among my favorite reads. Not this month! @Cuilin #Pantone2024 @BarbaraBB

Cuilin Yeah I‘m not particularly good with horror. This sounds gruesome. Hopefully November‘s #BookedInTime Time of the Pharaohs will be more pleasant. 3w

Sometimes 451 characters isn't enough to gush over a book and the feeeelllllssss associated with that book and that's my problem here but I will say that Grann did an amazing job of balancing historical information and providing it such a written way that spoke of the Osage's civilization with respect to race, perspective, culture, and colonialism.

I have too many feels for this story that Arden put together!

I found this to be a great read, at times an ode to the war and the people affected, and others time a magical tale laced with hope, and dash of madness yet highly detailed that I never lost my place or the realities of the time. To my surprise, the characters had to navigate through the war and it's nightmares but also their adaptation to seeing their world transformed.

The cover resembled Frieda McFadden‘s novels! This was well thought out and succeeded in delivering a mystery that had me engaged all through.
