I loved the days when we all rooted for the underdog. Korman is a fantastic writer of friendship tales and this is no different.

The Note: A Novel | Alafair Burke

pick

It‘s an intricate and well-plotted mystery that will keep you turning pages. Burke maybe tries to do a bit Too Much with it, but she‘s crafted a really fascinating character in Kelsey, the real estate heiress who is widely suspected of murdering her estranged husband.

The Secret of the Lost Pearls | Darcie Wilde

I am so enjoying this audiobook, a first in a series of mystery novels inspired by Jane Austen. Each chapter begins with a quote from Pride and Prejudice which suggests just what unfolds. #serieslove2025 #jumpstart2025 #Read2025

kspenmoll @robinb I am excited to know there are more books ahead for me!!! 2mo

robinb @kspenmoll My only issue is that there are two sets of the mysteries. The older set (5 of them) are listed as Rosalind Thorne mysteries. The newer ones (3) are listed as A Useful Woman mysteries. And unfortunately between the two of them they are not exactly in chronological order. There‘s not a big time difference but it is noticeable. Not sure why that happened? 🔻 (edited) 2mo

robinb Relationship progression, location differences, etc. But you can infer things between the two sets. Maybe she stopped after the Rosalind Thorne‘s and when she started again with the Useful Woman she wanted to toggle back and forth between the two to call attention to both sets?? 🤷🏻‍♀️ 2mo

Andrew65 Looks a good series, well done 🎉🎉🎉 2mo
