Welcome to Litsy!

3✨ I feel like these books are really rushed. It‘s a great read for young kids to boost confidence. I‘m wondering in the notes are a build up as well. The first two books are building up a mystery in the series that might give the books more main plot than going to other places from their magical treehouse. #SeriesLove

04/100 Castle has always been one of my favorite TV shows, so it was fun to return to the "alternate" version with Rook and Heat. I still prefer the pairing of Castle and Beckett to Rook and Heat, but both have their enjoyable qualities. Heat seems almost superhuman at times, too cool under pressure, less human than Beckett. All in all, a good mystery that kept me guessing until the end. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I‘ve read a few books by Kate Morton, and The Distant Hours wasn‘t my favorite. I loved the historical fiction, dual timeline story, and setting of an old, European castle. But there were so many little things going on that made the story confusing at times.

Cannot tell you how happy I was when husband came home with the Peppermint Mocha Coffee Creamer. Love adding a little to my morning coffee for festive vibes.

Finished this earlier in the week for this month‘s #SeasonalCozies after finding it doing a Google search for cozy mysteries set in September & finding out it was free for me on Audible. Honestly there wasn‘t much of a Sept presence/fall vibe but it wasn‘t a bad cozy mystery & I liked the characters overall. The main mystery was solved but it ended with a set up into a treasure hunt. The next one is set in October⬇️

For #HyggeHour tonight, I‘m finishing up my cards for the #FallCardSwap so I can mail them out tomorrow while listening to the tagged book for #SeasonalCozies

I‘m drinking raspberry lemonade (it‘s so humid) & noshing on mini lemon bars my coworker gave me. I guess I need to switch to a fall vibe soon. 😉

My mood is a little sad that tomorrow is Monday—I really could use an extra day off.

Great read about castle life told in rhyme!

This will be my pick for September‘s #SeasonalCozies
It takes place in September, is first in a series (Merry Muffin Mysteries) & it‘s free as part of my Audible membership, so I‘m giving it a go. (Does that take on new meaning when talking about bran muffins?!) 😜💩😉
