Have started A Painted Doom for a group Read on Librarything. Looking forward to this, book 6 in the excellent Wesley Peterson Series. Always great modern day Murder mysteries alongside a historical mystery. Strongly recommend these. Great series for Devon in the #SeparatedbyAPondTour

Murder in Clichy | Cara Black

#SeriesSquad

*I started out loving this one. It seemed interesting as regards Aimée‘s personal life, propulsive as regards the storyline, and nice and twisty as regards the kidnapping of René. But towards the end, I had to bring up my auto-recall function—too many minor characters with sporadic appearances—I couldn‘t remember all of them; and suspend my disbelief—did she really climb up a trestle with a man with a prosthetic leg—I think Black ⬇️

gradcat ⬆️ (Cont.) asked too much of her readers in this one, the fifth of the Aimée LeDuc Investigations series. ♥️ 5y

Crazeedi I still havent finished and its has to be returned soon. 5y

gradcat @Crazeedi Are you not liking it? 😕 5y

Crazeedi @gradcat not particularly, this series just isnt hitting my sweet spot for some reason @EadieB @Andrew65 5y

gradcat @Crazeedi Sorry you‘re not enjoying it. Too many books & too little time, I always say. Maybe you want to stop reading them? ♥️ 5y

Crazeedi @gradcat we will see! Depends on the beginning of the year how many reads I'm signed up for. I'll finish and read the next one for sure!! 5y

gradcat @Crazeedi I can understand that...I may have to postpone December‘s Cara Black to finish my Booked2019! Egads! 😱 5y

A Mersey Killing | Brian Porter

@TrishB Have you ever heard of or read this book that is set in Liverpool in the 1960s? Currently free on Amazon and got a rating of 4.05. No posts about it on Litsy.

Another series for you @Cinfhen And is the first book in the series.

Crazeedi, Tove_Reads, EadieB, gradcat

TrishB Not heard of before- but have downloaded this one now 👍🏻 5y

Andrew65 @TrishB I thought with it set in Liverpool you might be interested and who can argue with free! I‘ve downloaded it too. 5y

TrishB We‘ll get to it at some point! 5y

Andrew65 @TrishB Yes 😂 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Never heard of this author. 5y

Velvetfur Oohh I'm interested in this too since it's my city as well 😁 5y

Andrew65 @Velvetfur Perfect then, and as the book is free what is to lose! 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Me either. Is it free in the US or only the UK? 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Yes Free in the US too! 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB That‘s good! 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 I got this book from my swap site:
Glastonbury
Author: Brian L Porter
Hidden in the shadows of Glastonbury Tor lies an ancient secret. Hired by millionaire Malcolm Capshaw to search for a fabled artifact, Joe Cutler and his team from Strata Survey Systems are drawn into a web of lies, murder and betrayal. — The artifact is revealed to be bogus, and the real purpose of their search is slowly exposed. A menacing presence, in the form of 5y

EadieB an old London crime family, displays an unusual interest in the events in the ancient town where Christianity laid its roots in England.

There, aided by the enigmatic professor Lucius Doberman, Joe and his team must solve the mystery of Glastonbury before the sinister historian Walter Graves makes the discovery that could cost him and the whole team their lives.

A mind-bending mystery for fans of The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Sounds very promising. 3.81 rating. 5y

Velvetfur @Andrew65 Woohoo! Thank you for the heads up about it being free 👍😊 x 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 thanks Andrew, I'm going to see if I can get it too ! 5y

Crazeedi @EadieB the book you describe here sounds really good!! 5y

Huntress Moon | Alexandra Sokoloff

#SoaringScores #CatchUp
#TheHunting in this series is done both by the FBI Special Agent & his team for the serial (really more vigilante) killer known as “The Huntress” & her hunting for evil & those are overtaken by it to kill.

The Hunter‘s (& Huntress) Moon is the first full moon after the harvest moon so it was just recently in the sky.🌕🤓

DebinHawaii @TrishB @Andrew65 @gradcat #seriessquad @Cinfhen They aren‘t bad, on the darker side in terms of violence & the first ones were the strongest, but I like the MCs & will keep reading them. 5y

TrishB 👍🏻 I‘ll probably try a couple! 5y

gradcat @DebinHawaii Thanks for elaborating! That‘s very helpful. ♥️ 5y

Andrew65 @DebinHawaii Thanks for the information. 😊 5y

Cinfhen Hi @gradcat where have you been?!?!?! Hope all is well 🥰 (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Yes @Cinfhen does a great job. 👏👏👏 5y

Cinfhen Thanks @Andrew65 ❣️❣️❣️❣️ 5y

gradcat @Cinfhen Hiya! I know, I‘ve been missing in action on the music prompts! One reason is that Google changed the way I do image searches, and I couldn‘t figure it out (tech dinosaur, me!), but @Andrew65 told me how to do it, so I figure I‘ll jump back in in November. How are you? How is your husband? Hope you guys are well! ♥️ 5y

Cinfhen Glad you‘re alright @gradcat all is well on this side of the world 🌍 thanks for asking. Looking forward to seeing your posts xx 5y

gradcat @Cinfhen Glad all is well for you over there. Now I just have to find the November prompts! 😂 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat 😊 Good Luck with The searches. (edited) 5y

#SoaringScores #catchup
I have about 5 prompts to catch up on this weekend so I will do them in no particular order.
When I think of a #TimeBombTown I think of the hidden Rockton, tucked away in the Canadian Yukon & filled with people hiding from something. It always seems like a ticking time bomb is waiting to go off there. (And yes, I use this series a lot! 😉) Waiting for book #5.

Cinfhen, CrowCAH

Hooked_on_books I love this series! 5y

Cinfhen Never heard of this series before....how about you guys my #seriesSquad @EadieB @Andrew65 @TrishB @gradcat 5y

TrishB @Cinfhen not heard of it but will check out 👍🏻 5y

CrowCAH Reminds me of the Jack London novels in the Canadian wilderness! 5y

EadieB @gradcat Wow! Nice one! 5y

gradcat @EadieB Thank you! This is yet *another* detective series, #seriessquad ! 😂 5y

EadieB @gradcat I do own some of these books! 5y

See All 15 Comments

gradcat @EadieB Okay, I am now convinced that you own all of the detective series novels ever written!! 😂🤣😂 5y

EadieB @gradcat I think I do because I had 10,000 books when I had to stop buying books because there was no more room in my house. I would only pay .50 or $1.00 for each book. I now have at least 5,000 and still need to downsize. 5y

Andrew65 I need an X author for my audiobook #LitsyAtoZ, this could be perfect for that. Great cover. 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Eadie is long renowned for the national collection. 😂 @EadieB (edited) 5y

Ruthiella @EadieB If I had lotto $ I would buy you a separate house. 😬 @CarolynM too. I support your habit! 5y

EadieB @Ruthiella Oh you are so nice! That would be wonderful! 5y

Ddzmini Yea I‘ll do it 🙌🏽😝 starting tomorrow 5y

gradcat @EadieB Yes—that‘s the answer—another house! 10,000 books is, in fact, a library!! 😂😂 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 Glad I could help! This is the second in the series, the first one is ... in case you‘d like to begin at the beginning. ♥️

Death of a Red Heroine

gradcat @Ddzmini So glad you‘re doing this...looking forward to your covers! ♥️ 5y

gradcat @EadieB By the way, Eadie...not to be too big of a nag, but did you check your email today? 📲 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 Hi there, Andrew. How are you feeling? 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Today not been the best day, but not the worst either. Getting by. Endoscopy on Saturday and then ultrasound the following Saturday. Been a bit improved recently (until dip today) but have to be off acid reducing medication this week ready for the test on Saturday and leading to a few issues today. But hey life goes on 😊 School keeping me busy which helps during the day. Losing weight but that‘s because eradicated most fats from diet. 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Thanks for asking. 😊👍 5y

EadieB @gradcat I forgot my password to get into my mail so I need to find where I wrote it down. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Don‘t you hate passwords! 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 I'm so tired of passwords. I have to change them all the time and I can't remember where and if I wrote it down and which words I capitalized. Now I can't get my mail. 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 First, I can‘t believe they do those tests on the weekend, but I‘m betting that‘s good for you—keep you from having to miss teaching, right? Second, you have to stop the acid reducers? Is that so that they can better tell how bad/good it is? I don‘t remember having to do that, but I can very well understand that stopping those meds would cause some irritation. Did the docs tell you to eliminate fats? Just curious...your docs may be ⬇️ 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 ⬆️ Cont. slightly ahead of ours. I read abstracts on gastro problems, and very often the cutting-edge stuff is coming from over there. I‘m really hoping they identify and then fix the problem for you. I‘ll be thinking of you and hoping for speedy recovery! 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB I‘m forever having to reset my hotmail password! 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 I guess I will have to delete my mail account and set up a new one. 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Thanks 😊 I‘ve been trying to reduce my cholesterol levels and saturated fats (genetics) but seemed as after eating chips / fries pains seemed to be worse. Could be wrong in this and could be coincidence but since eliminating Chips and higher fat foods pains eased. Of course of gall stones mat just be in a lull period. Reading online seemed to indicating reducing high fat foods and processed food, both lead to 👇 (edited) 5y

gradcat @EadieB Well...isn‘t this a bit of a mess? 😂🤣😂 I sent you a couple of ebooks for your birthday featuring my favorite detective (I seriously want to marry him), but I‘m pretty sure you have to get into your email to retrieve them. Whoops! 😂😂 Let me know if you don‘t get them, and I‘ll see what I can do on this end. Sorry! 5y

EadieB @gradcat I'm setting up a new mail account so I'll let you know if I succeed. I have to write down all the settings as I always mess it up. 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat 👆higher levels of bile being released that can increase pain levels. More intense biliary colic with higher bile levels released. To be ho nest willing to try anything! Could be following myself because at moment biliary colic and gall stones is only a hypothesis. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Can‘t you just hit the forgotten password option (if one) to reset password? 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Didn't get that option. Just said to check my settings. 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Told to stop meds as gives a clearer view of what‘s happening. (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB That‘s a shame. 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 Oh, I really don‘t like those tests that you‘re having, but really it‘s the colonoscopy I truly hate. None of it hurts, so don‘t worry about that if you haven‘t gone through this before—it‘s just the prep that I hate. I hope you can get some relief, and very soon...I‘d hate for this to linger while you‘re now back at school. 😟 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Colonoscopy not great, but then neither is endoscopy but got to be got through. Had both of these before. 5y

gradcat @EadieB Ok, Eadie, keep me posted and I‘ll check back with Amazon to change your address if need be. I should have just gotten your address and sent you regular books, but I didn‘t have your address and I didn‘t want to miss your birthday. That‘s what I get for doing everything at the last minute! 5y

EadieB @gradcat The address will be the same as I am only changing the password. 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 Well, at least you know what you‘re in for. Good luck with all of it...I hate these types of problems, but mine started when I was 16... so I guess I‘m used to it (sort of). Take care of yourself—eating right will probably go a long way to helping you, no matter what it is. ♥️ 5y

Andrew65 Thanks will let you know how it goes. 💓 @gradcat Always had digestive issues of some kind from teenage years and regularly suffer from IBS. (edited) 5y

gradcat @EadieB Oh? Okay, I just misunderstood. I hope you‘re able to retrieve them. You read so quickly that I thought you might like to jump into another series! 🚨 🚨 🚨 #seriessquad 😂 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 Okay, please do. I‘ll be thinking about you. 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 & @EadieB I‘m going to get supper...will check back later. It‘s so nice chatting with you two—check out the wordy wordiness above!! 😂 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Hope supper was good, always good to chat. 😊 5y

EadieB @gradcat I got my email fixed. I had to contact Comcast and they reset my password. I got the ebooks you sent me from Amazon. I did not open them as I have already read all the books in this series. Thanks so much as it is the thought that counts. Maybe you can contact Amazon and they will credit you. 5y

gradcat @EadieB Oh, I‘m so sorry! I tried so hard to find something you hadn‘t yet read—I even looked back at your posts! I‘m sorry you had to go through all of that trouble...are you sure there‘s nothing else you would like? Again, sorry 😐 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 Backatcha! 5y

EadieB @gradcat Can‘t think of anything at the moment and I hope you can get your money back. Thanks so much for the thought! 5y

gradcat No problem, Eadie...I just regret that you had to go through that ridiculous process. ♥️ 5y

(Day 10 - #WithMyLittleStickOfBlackpoolRock)

*I don‘t have a book (forgive me!), but this show from the BBC keeps knocking around in my brain, given the prompt. This is when I fell truly in love with the BBC. The show absolutely amazed me when I first saw it in 2005. We weren‘t doing musical tv shows at that time, and I was thoroughly gobsmacked—I love, love, loved it!! Anyway, it‘s about Blackpool, and there is rock (‘n roll)!
