Welcome to Litsy!

I'm trying to read so many books this month. I'm not really sure why I'm setting the bar so high, but here's my 1st book for Dec. I'm just about out of Trixie books and am going to have to scour the Internet for the rest of the series. This one had an absurd chapter involving a burned field of marijuana, which left the kids smelling like they'd been smoking it. Dan confronting Trixie and Honey for smoking pot was not something I was expecting! 😆

My rather battered copy of this book - it's one of the first Trixie books I ever read, as it is one of the few that my aunt had on her shelf when I was little!!

We jumped from fall in the last book to summer break in this book, but you'll have that 😂 This was another fun Sleepyside mystery, although it did feel like there were a lot of moving pieces. And I never figured out how the drug boss ended up owning the flower store 😆 But I enjoyed ⬇

Finished last weekend for #BobWhiteBuddies Book 19 has summer holidays starting & a new mystery or mysteries for Trixie & the gang to solve. This one stays close to home with the Bob-Whites helping out a neighbor whose garden business is being sabotaged. There‘s also stolen mail & of all things ***BIG spoiler alert*** a hidden marijuana field & it made me laugh that when it is burnt to hide the evidence, the gang ⬇️

The Bob Whites get swept into another mystery when someone attempts to sabotage widowed Mrs Elliot‘s flower selling. Everything becomes worse when it seems her stepson knows more than he‘s telling.

A very interesting, more personal mystery. Trixie & the gang help out a neighbor, make some new friends, Dan gets to shine, & things don‘t always go right w/ the investigation, but the whole team always operates w/ good intentions.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

Spending my #HyggeHour on the couch with Trixie & the gang for #BobWhiteBuddies

Snacking on stuffing popcorn tonight, along with this apple chai cider sparkling water.

My mood is sad that weekends are too short & it‘s another busy week cumulating in a 2-day retreat meeting that I‘m not looking forward to at all, but maybe that will make the week go by more quickly. 😬

The lucky grasshopper weather vane has vanished from Town Hall! It‘s up to the Bob Whites to figure out where it went & why.

I liked this one a lot! Trixie & Honey use their detective skills, go to the adults when appropriate, the adults listen (!). A bit predictable, but an unexpected twist I had forgotten. I did start to get a little tired of Thesaurus Mart, & I think this one is a new ghost writer because we start w/ a long summary! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

I liked this one well enough. I like that it centered around someone the kids saw at school. Even if, at this point, any new people in Sleepyside pretty much have to be involved in whatever crime has been committed, I still like it best when the books are set there. I was happy for Bobby getting to ride like the big kids. #bobwhitebuddies

This was a fun mystery, nothing groundbreaking. I enjoyed the banter and Mart's huge words. However, I needed more horses 😂 The villain felt ridiculously obvious here, but the other aspects of the mystery (how, why, time capsule, clues, etc) were fun.

Finished last week for #BobWhiteBuddies it is good timing as the book is set in Fall so it made for a good #HyggeHour last week. I didn‘t remember this one all that well so I guess I didn‘t reread it much during childhood.🤷🏻‍♀️ It takes place in Sleepyside & involves the disappearance of “Hoppy” the grasshopper weathervane on top of City Hall & the side mystery of missing coins & a new teacher‘s aide at school who ⬇️

Soft pick. Trixie was annoying as could be, and my claustrophobic self hated the caves. 😵‍💫 But the ghost fish are amazing!

I have the urge to finally watch the last season of Ozark now. The Bob Whites would be eaten alive. 💰💰💰
