Snoopy and the Peanuts gang are my favorites. In this comic, we see Snoopy interact with Charlie Brown and the rest of the Peanuts gang. I have loved Snoopy and the Peanuts gang every since I was a little girl.

#37by37Readathon

love Snoopy! This contained some Peanuts strips I have never seen or read before. These strips had most of the Peanuts gang in them. Not all, but most, of them were The Flying Ace behind enemy lines.

I found this book to be very interesting. I learned quite a bit. I never knew Nixon installed the recording device in the oval office that ended up causing him to resign. The break in was planned by him to use against his enemies. There is so much info in this book. I recommend it to any that likes history.

#bookspinbingo #37by37Readathon

Well researched, but the chapters were very long, except for 2 of them. I never knew about a Women's Orchestra at Auschwitz. The Nazis made them play for the people arriving at the platform where the prisoners were sent right to live or left to die.

I haven't read a Linda Howard book in a long time. I enjoyed this book. Howard had good character development. The story line was interesting. Baily Weston is in charge of her stepchildrens trust and they are not happy at all about that. She goes on vacation but ends up in a plane crash. Will her and the pilot be found?

😊 Happy Reading 😊

I heard good things about this book, so I wanted to read it bc who doesn't like a Who-done-it mystery? I was disappointed. Miss Hortense is the MC, but I felt like I didn't know her. There are a ton of characters that I got hit with, and I had a hard time keeping track of who was who. I probably should have DNF'D it, but I hate doing that. There's a lot of readers who enjoyed it, but it just fell flat to me.

#bookspinbingo

Slow month in Oct. I only got 10 books read with one DNF

A well researched biography on Jeanette Rankin, the first woman to be in Congress. I was immensed in this book. The life Rankin lived was fascinating. She saw WWI, WWII and Vietnam. She did so much in her life that women are benefiting from today, as well as America.

Rinehart takes you on the journey of Rankin's life. Rinehart wrote this book so you feel as you are right there beside Rankin. She let's you travel along with Rankin ⬇️

Another great installment in the Domestic Diva Cozy Mystery Series. I enjoy Krista Davis' books so much.

4.5 ⭐️

It's almost the 4th of July. Sophie gets hired by the Queen of Cheesecake, Bobbie Sue. Soon after, Bobbie Sue's husband is found dead. The suspect list is long, and soon Barney is at the top. There's a mysterious woman, a coach, an ex-husband, the dead persons step-son, plus Barney. There's no way, Barney could have done it, is there?

😊 Happy Reading 😊

#Serieslove2025

I bailed on this one. I have read a lot of her books, and this is the first one I have bailed on. I couldn't get into it.

Bookmail from J. D. Barker.

Cynthia Burrows thought she'd built the perfect life- successful law career, loving husband, beautiful daughter. But when 18 yr old Tori vanishes without a trace, Cynthia's carefully constructed world begins to crumble.

The Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz by Anne Sebba (Kindle)
The Woman in Suite 11 by Ruth Ware (Kindle)

#weeklyrecap

I didn't have a good week of reading. Only 2 books finished:

The Diva Serves Forbidden Fruit by Krista Davis
The Zorg: A Tale of Greed and Murder That Inspired the Abolition of Slavery by Siddharth Kara

The Zorg is the story of a little known slave ship. Because of a mistake from someone taking an r for an n, the ship became known as the Zong.

The research Siddharth Kara did on this book was impressive. The problem I had with it, was that in places it drug to me. It's a very sad story of what slaves went through when they were sold into slavery by their on people. They had to take a horrible journey across the ocean, then get bought ⬇️

I didn't find this installment in the Domestic Diva Series as good as the others. The mystery to this one was ok. I did like that Nina took a more prominent role. Unless, I missed something the title didn't really go with the book.

#audiobook #Serieslove2025

Sophie's ex-husband, Mars, has asked her to help finish ghost writing a book for one of his clients wives. She agrees, but soon thinks it may entail more than she bargained for. The previous ghostwriter has vanished. When Sophie and her best friend, Nina, go by her house to check on her, they soon find theirselves involved in another murder investigation. There's a few different things going on in this installment of the Domestic Diva ⬇️

I have to say War Room is the best book I've read all year. It was so inspiring and emotional. I felt God speak to me throughout this book. I pray everyday, but this book makes me want a war room to talk to God. I highly recommend The War Room to everyone.

😊 Happy Reading 😊

In this installment of the Domestic Diva Series, Sophie is asked to help Bernie with the annual pie contest. Natasha is excluded from entering this year, because of what she did last year. Sophie is soon embroiled in another mystery. This time though the culprit is trying to frame Sophie.

😊 Happy Reading 😊

#bookspinbingo #audio

Riley Sager combined two of Agatha Christie's books, Then There Were None (which I loved) and Murder on the Orient Express (which I haven't read, yet). Sager put so many twists in this book. I never had a clue. Anna Mattheson lost her famy and now she's going to get revenge. She sends out 6 invitations for a train ride to Chicago, to the people that destroyed her life. The only question is: how many will survive. 5⭐️

This Diva Cozy Mystery Series is so good. Davis has great character development and the characters have depth. They grow with each book. Sophia and Nina are supposed to go on vacation, but a storm has them canceling their plans. She and all her friends are soon drawn into a murder. Hoarce told Sophia he thought someone was poisoning him. Now he is dead. Did his new younger wife, his kid, his ex-wife, or a law partner kill him?

Reading 4 books at once and listening to an audio

I love this series. To me, it's a great cozy mystery series. I wouldn't recommend reading it when you're hungry though. Davis talks a lot of food. Natasha does get on my nerves a bit, but I think if she wasn't in the series it would be missing something. This one deals with a murder, relationships and food! I never suspected the culprit.

😊 Happy Reading 😊

Two sisters on trail for the murder of their father. One did it, and the other one is innocent. One hires Eddie, and the other one hires another lawyer. The prosecution is not sure which did it, so they are trying them both. Who is the killer?

I love Eddie Flynn. He is always the underdog. He doesn't bow down to anyone, either. Cavanagh has grown Eddie so much since the first book. Eddie is a deep character. The problem this time ⬇️

Man, it was a long eight years to wait for this book. It's so good. I enjoy a good mystery. Robert Langsdon is a great MC. His girlfriend, Katherine, is asked to Prague to discuss a book she's working on. Soon, they are running for their lives, trying to figure out why people want her manuscript to disappear. That's all I want to say bc I don't want to spoil it!

The Diva series is so much fun! I love reading them and seeing what Sophie, Mills, Nina, Natasha, and Wolf are all up to. Another great read! 4⭐️

#Serieslove2025 #Audiobook #TurnthePageReadathon

The Diva Wraps It Up is the 8th book in the series. It's Christmas Time, and Old Town is having a house decorating contest. Natasha wasn't quite as bad as usual. There were quite a few characters to keep up with this time. Things go missing, a railing falls, old flames, and murder all make up this cozy mystery. I rated it 4.5⭐️, rounded up.

😊 Happy Reading 😊

The Diva Frosts a Cupcake by Krista Davis
Guess Again by Charlie Donlea

I'm so excited!!!!! My hold from Libby came in!!! I returned Guess Again by Charlie Donlea, and this was waiting for me🥰🥰

I don't understand why books by Charlie Donlea aren't talked about more. This was a captivating read with twists abound.

It's been 10 years since Callie Jones has gone missing. Ethan Hall is asked to come back to the WDCI to solve her case. After all, he has a 100% clear rate. What happens throughout this book will blow your mind! I recommend it!

Hilary Huber does a great job in narrating the Diva Series. Sophie Weston is helping Nina with a benefit for dogs. Sophie has to man a table, while Nina runs an errand. Humphrey is supposed to help, but he gets leashed into helping Renee at her booth. Humphrey asks Sophie to help him with an errand, and soon, Sophie is involved in another case.

Davis' characters all evolve. She adds new minor characters to the mix.

2.5 ⭐️

Mine is not a popular opinion, but I didn't care for this book. Robert Hilland seemed to me like an egotistical person. The book was all I did this, and I did that. It really got on my nerves. I enjoyed True Crime books, but I guess I was expecting the book to be something completely different.

#Bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks

Another good installment in The Diva Series by Krista Davis. I enjoy Davis' cozies! I always find myself smiling or laughing when I read one. 4⭐️

It took me a bit to read The Locked Ward. I just never got invested in it. I really thought I would enjoy the book, but I just didn't. I felt no connection with Georgia or Mandy. First book I have read by Sarah Pekkanen, and it may be my last. Of course, this is just my opinion. You may like it or even love it.
