If you‘re used to Marian‘s fiction stories you won‘t be disappointed by her essays. She uses the same writing style and depth mixed with humor when discussing her own life. She somehow forgot one key thing in the giant subtitle: Booze.
🍀🍀🍀🍀

I read this for the #WhatsInANameChallenge - I needed “footwear” and “Shoes “ is in the subtitle.

Also read this for #bookspinbingo last month but am late posting my reviews!

An enjoyable mystery with likable cast of characters, especially our favorite homicide detective CHIEF Inspector Gamache. However, I went too long between this and the prior book. I don‘t recall enough of what happened. Not quite a standalone book. But… PIE! Great scene with lemon meringue pie 😋

Suzze I try to make a couple of notes about each book that helps me remember the previous one. I‘m caught up now. 5mo
BkClubCare @Suzze - I do not like the unfinished Agent Nichol story line 😑 (and a few other quibbles,,, but I don‘t like series books.) 5mo
Larkken Nicol returns?! I've only read bk 1 and she was not a fav lol 5mo

Larkken @BkClubCare haha, nah no worries. Lately I‘m one of those horribles that seek out spoilers. 5mo
AvidReader25 The first few books in this series are average, but it gets better and better! 5mo

Starting this as my expendable travel read - I intend on leaving it on the plane or in the hotel. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Found on my shelves, unknown when originally acquired, it fits a reading challenge I do every year: #WiaN #WhatsinaName #WiaN2024 category NFL Team (the subtitle features CHIEF Inspector Gamache! 🏈

bthegood I just finished this and loved it (2nd in a series) - hope you enjoy it too. 🙂 5mo
BkClubCare @bthegood - thank you; so far so good. 😊 5mo

Wow - this is so good. Devastatingly sad, super-intriguing on the ghosts part!

Esther is ecstatic to help me review this fast read for #BookClub #DogsofLitsy

Some sentences are more than clunky but it was a good read, characters to cheer for, lots of interesting history, and I am glad to have read it. Plus, I wanted to spend all my time reading — a feeling (?) which I have been missing these last few weeks. (My first book by this author.)

Am giving this a pick but it stressed me out; one reason is that it made me sad, I appreciated the humor and knew I should and would usually love this kind of humor but my mood this month did NOT match what I am sure was a lovely read. All that to say, I am glad to close this & move on. The ending was kind of lovely. #LitsyToB24 #WiaN2024 Category: Double Letters #ReadICT Category: a book I meant to read last year

BkClubCare No pie, book 3 of 2024, ebook. My 2nd N.Hill 8mo
Ruthiella Sorry to hear that! That‘s the drawback to reading ToB books. You can‘t easily set them aside and read later…😕 8mo
BarbaraBB You did read it fast though! 8mo
BkClubCare @BarbaraBB - it didn‘t feel like it! 😂 I read two other books while avoiding this one and I am way off my pace of 7-10 books a month 😳 8mo
BkClubCare @Ruthiella - drat those ToB chunksters 8mo

BarbaraBB Happy new year! What does #WianN2024 mean? 9mo
BkClubCare @BarbaraBB - Hello! HNY!! WiaN oooops, I think I might have added an extra N… it stands for “What‘s in a Name” which is my favorite yearlong challenge and I can drop the link 🔗 in the next comment. Six categories to read, it‘s very informal. 9mo
