Welcome to Litsy!

Really enjoying this series. The first book was really good and this one was also. Looking forward to book three and hoping the series lasts because I‘m already attached.

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks of my December reads, the first of a series; the next two in the series are on this year‘s TBR list.

Hey! Looks like all Agatha Christie books are $2 today- which ones would you recommend? I‘m not going to get all of them but want to try out maybe 2 or 3, as I‘ve never read anything by her🙂📖

This is the first Sparks & Bainbridge mystery that I‘ve read, so I was playing catch-up with the characters. That aside, it was a very enjoyable read. Set in postwar London, the titular characters are trying tie a new crime to an old series of robberies. The plot is pleasingly complicated, the history well drawn and the characters are interesting. The only bad news is that I now have a new back list to read, but I‘m looking forward to them.

The good news is this was a compelling and interesting story. It‘s 1922 in St. Louis, and the MC gets inadvertently involved in investigating the murder of a player for a local Negro League team. He finds out more than he expected about the racism and violence of the KKK and segregation. There‘s also a little personal crisis in his life.

The bad news is I can‘t find the next installment. Not insurmountable but inconvenient.

When you‘re waiting for snow and watching football, of course you read a book about baseball. #hyggehourreadathon

My February pick for #12booksof2024

Life is tough for Ben, returning to Salt Lake City, after a divorce & leaving his teaching position, to help his father run their board game shop. Things only get trickier when a shady game collector ends up dead on their doorstep.

This was cute, but what I liked most about it was my love for all the real locations, (also the BYU shade😅). The pace felt too slow, & Ben was not an engaging narrator. I did like the 2ndary characters!🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

First read of December goes to Between A Flock and a Hard Place. We picked this book for our book club at work because we wrongly assumed it was about Thanksgiving. It ended up being a fun enough read though. #WinterGames #XMasChaCha
