Welcome to Litsy!

This was a fun installment! Meg‘s dad has a Christmas surprise - an outdoor ice rink! In Virginia! Meg is housing, as usual, a crowd. This time it includes Canadians collaborating with Mutant Wizards on a consumer DNA project. Unfortunately a few people don‘t like what the DNA results turned up…

Quirky characters, fun Christmas activities, and a murder, of course. An entertaining December read.
This was my December #SeasonalCozies pick.

I finally decided on my December pick for #SeasonalCozies . Several of you have already posted; what will everyone else be reading?

Looking forward to continuing our cozy adventures in 2025 with #ThematicCozies ! All are welcome.

Who would have thought Meg‘s easy-going, carefree brother, Rob, would create a million dollar computer game?? Turns out he did! (With help from savvy advisors and employees) But there is something sinister simmering at his new company, and he asks Meg to see if she can figure out what the trouble is and how to fix it.

Between Michael‘s production of Macbeth, the “historic” Scottish re-enactors, the real life witchcraft in the woods - this one is creepy!

The Meg Langslow books have become one of my favorite comfort reads. They‘re light and fun and I kinda want her life (the main character, not the author although I‘m sure she‘s lovely.) This book was heavy on farm animal exposition and improbable, but I still enjoyed it.

Love the rainy, hurricane-blustery setting on a remote Maine island! It makes me want to build a fire and be cozy. ☕️🪵 Meg and Michael took off for a bit to have some time to relax at her Aunt‘s cottage - unfortunately it turns out they did not leave Meg‘s lovable, but kooky relatives back in Yorktown. Including Spike.
I‘m on the lookout for the hardcovers of Peacocks and Puffins - the only two I don‘t have!

It‘s been years since I read the early books in the series, so I thought I would mix in a few with the newer ones I‘m still getting caught up on. I just love Meg, Michael and Meg‘s whole goofy family! Things start off pretty differently from what they become in later books, but the wackiness is there! It was also written 25 years ago, so it reads a little differently too. This one was quite a story with A LOT going on!

Loved it! Such a fun installment with the whole Langslow crew on a cruise. Including, poor Rose Noire, who only went to try to protect them from the dangers of the Bermuda Triangle. Of course the cruise deteriorates quickly, and Meg must step in to help keep things on an even keel. 😉

What do a 30 year old jewelry heist, a murder in a columbarium (crypt) and a toucan have in common? More than you would think, as it turns out!

Also, I learned that toucans cannot not talk (I never thought about this before), and they are incredibly messy eaters that adore fruit.
