The main character is referred to as a chaos muppet and that about sums it up.

pickRead Bunny with my daughter, so we are reading this one too. I just finished and look forward to our discussion soon.
Finishing up The Seven Dials Mystery for discussion with #ChristiesCapers enjoying All the Other Mothers Hate Me on audio, and starting We Love You, Bunny for a BR.
Reading New Moon with a book club on discord, listening to All the Other Mothers Hate Me on my own, and just started The Seven Dials Mystery for discussion with #ChristiesCapers on 10/26. #weekendreads
pickSo much beauty in these dark pages, with more hope than I anticipated.
pickA reread for the 20th anniversary. I stumbled upon a very sweet group of ladies on discord and have enjoyed the weekly discussions.
pickAnother sweet romance from Emma St. Clair, she does some of the best. I‘ve got one more in this series to enjoy, but I‘m ready for some seasonal reading now, so that will wait til next year.
pickYou can listen to a short story which was published in The New Yorker this past July titled The Chartreuse written and read by Mona Awad, the author of new release We Love You, Bunny. I enjoyed it.

pickAn easy read, with lovable characters, and the backdrop of a Renaissance Faire. It was fun, especially as a BR with #LittensLoveRomance
pickA sweet romance with lovable characters and entertaining banter.
pickThe snarky commentary of society dished up via one liners is very entertaining. The dry wit/satire hit just right for me. I definitely want to read A Terribly Nasty Business soon.
Extra enjoyable, as all are BRs. A close friend started reading the tagged book, and alerted me and two others how funny it is. I‘m halfway through and agree it is hilarious. Rereading Twilight for the 20th with a group on discord. Loving two chapters a day of Well Met with #LittensLoveRomance #weekendreads

#NoPlaceLikeHolmes folks - I play the Waffle puzzle game most days. Today was especially amusing for me and I thought you might agree.
pickAn enjoyable reread for me. I remembered this is mentioned a few times in the Twilight series, and especially Heathcliff, so I wanted a refresher before rereading that for the 20th anniversary.
I‘m listening to Wuthering Heights (which is a reread), finally reading The Thursday Murder Club before I watch the movie that looks promising, and rereading Twilight with a group for discussion on discord for the 20th anniversary. #weekendreads #NationalReadABookDay
pickI have not read anything like this before, and often that is all I‘m looking for anymore. But this also gives me something to ponder, and I value that too.
pickThe second in the trilogy of prequels, this tells of Haymitch and why he is the way he is. I continue to enjoy this series.
I‘m rereading Wuthering Heights to gear up for the 20th anniversary of Twilight next month. Also reading Sunrise of the Reaping and tossing in a lighthearted sweet romcom too for balance. Runaway Bride and Prejudice is by one of my fav sweet romance authors, Emma St. Clair.
I‘m a little more than halfway through this one and enjoying it. #FirstLineFridays
pickI got to read a copy my daughter earned in a library summer reading program a dozen years ago (or so). I liked this one, Nancy and her friends seemed to have learned a thing or two and took more precautions for their safety, and are getting quite good at outsmarting the bad guys that would cause them harm. One would hope so by caper twenty-two. #NancyDrewBR
“I‘m sorry sir, Dostoevsky is not considered summer reading. I‘ll have to ask you to come with me.”
pickI enjoy Emma St. Clair‘s lighthearted sweet romcoms. This is another pick for me. I look forward to reading more from her.
pickThis is a perfectly whimsical written-for-adults cozy mystery with animals as the characters. I really enjoyed it and hope to make time to read more of the series. This was an IRL BR for me. We had lunch today and had an enjoyable discussion about how much we loved the characters, the plot, and the play on words throughout.
My world traveler friend just returned from a trip that included a visit to the oldest bookstore in the world, Livraria Bertrand, in Lisbon, Portugal. She bought a copy of this beautiful edition of Pride and Prejudice for me (as well as one for herself). Note the darling end pages and the stamp on the title page.
pickI enjoyed this one too. Finishing it wraps up my reading of the Sherlock Holmes canon. The #NoPlaceLikeHolmes group started in December 2023 and it has been a blast. Some stories were rereads for me and some were the first time. The community @dabbe and @Cuilin brought together and faithfully led has been a delight. Many, many thanks ladies. I look forward to what you‘ve got planned next!
I‘m reading this written-for-adults whimsical cozy mystery for an IRL BR. This passage made me smile knowingly. Thought the #NoPlaceLikeHolmes crew might enjoy it too.
pickI enjoyed this one. Looking forward to discussion with #CampLitsy25 Also hoping my husband can make time to read it soon.
Two lighthearted novels and one darker tale on the agenda this weekend. I‘ve been enjoying each of them the last few days. #weekendreads
I recently read Africa Is Not a Country with an IRL book club. One of the countries it highlights is Nigeria. I went into Death of the Author with helpful knowledge and I just love when these serendipitous experiences occur.
pickI usually take the dust jacket off while reading a book. This novel made me glad of that habit. Such a cool second cover. I enjoyed this one quite a bit, really glad it was chosen for #CampLitsy25
pickI‘m with @Librarybelle and also rate this a light pick. I always enjoy the #NancyDrewBR discussions of these iconic chapter books. I have more to say about this one and put my comments as spoilers below.
pick5⭐️
This book not only taught me so much, it explained why I didn‘t already know.
pickFun. It gives a seriously encouraging message with a very unserious delivery.
I first read “whizbang” in Nancy Drew 19 last month. Soon after, I read “whizbang” in a brand new novel retelling Pride and Prejudice, titled Stuck Up and Stupid. On Saturday, I knew right away that the answer to the NYT Mini 4 Down was amusingly enough, “whizbang”.
