pickThis was a very fun, cozy mystery about a mom who maybe witnesses a crime and the chaos ensues. A fun collection of characters, some nice surprises and a little bit of romance. I look forward to more books with Mavis! 4.5⭐️
Another #bookspinbingo!
pick4.75⭐️ I really liked this one. I found it to be a nice light, but in-depth read. Quite enjoyable. #2025 #bookreview #fiction #1920s #hea #historicalfiction #romance #oldercharacters #magicalrealism

"Spring Fever" by Mary Kay Andrews gave me spring vibes and not just because of the title.
pickPlucked from my tbr shelf, this is a lovely (and sad) story of Myra, a 51 year old outreach nurse, who finds herself caring for Chip, the golden boy she loved from afar in high school. Chip has terminal cancer and their friendship sustains them both. This is a quiet novel that is life affirming and hopeful, but also super sad.

This was an okay read, it‘s between a so-so and a pick. It wasn‘t amazing but I was interested enough to keep reading it. A good library borrow 👍

3 & 4: The roses are exploding with blooms
5: Finished another Meissner audiobook

pickThis is the lower end of the pick scale for me. I really wanted for all the Queens to be clearly depicted, but only Christie and Sayers have pretty distinct personalities. Marsh and Allingham were only distinguishable from each other by Marsh‘s New Zealand accent and their respective clothing styles. The book was also a bit slow paced in the first half but picked up later. #audiowalk
I‘ve only read a couple of Dorothy Sayers‘ books and don‘t know much about her, so it‘s interesting listening to a book with her as the main character, with Agatha Christie, Baroness Emma Orczy (The Scarlet Pimpernel), Ngaio Marsh, and Margery Allingham as sidekicks. I‘ve read at least one book by all of them except Allingham. Beautiful day for a #audiowalk.
