#WondrousWednesday @Eggs

1. An all-day cold and gentle rain. Matt and I are in the den with the windows open (of course zero rain would come inside). A warm fire would be blazing while we cozily sit on our wrap-around couch with our two GSD's, Kate & Pip on the couch with us. We'd be drinking hot-buttered rum and would be snuggled under fuzzy blankets. #sigh
2. I'm looking forward to finishing SOVEREIGN with the #ShardlakeSeriesBR.

@TheSpineView (thanks for the tag! 💛🤎🧡)

1. I love to plan and make lists. Actually performing the lists, though ... well, that's another story entirely. 😂
2. If you want to read an early Gothic novel where everything (at least so far) just happens to our heroine while she weeps unendingly, then this is the book for you! 😄

If you read all of this, you're 🔖!

Mehso-so

So close between So-So and Pan. I chose So-So for those who want to read the entire series. But, whoah! Racist, tedious, and poorly written. While there was danger, hidden tunnels, kidnappings, and arson, none of it felt urgent. Nancy even goes to a weekend party at her boyfriend‘s fraternity even though the young boy she‘s “protecting” has been kidnapped. WTF, Nancy? Hard not to eye-roll throughout this one. #oy #NancyDrewBR @Librarybelle

Laughterhp Yes! That was so weird!! 3d
lauraisntwilder And at the party, Nancy meets a student from India who knows the only other adult Indian she has ever met! 3d

Love them both, but my problem is that I tend to not finish a series, even if I love it. I get sidetracked easily, I guess. 😂

Prairiegirl_reading My problem with series is that I don‘t want to start until the series is completed but I also don‘t want to read the whole series and nothing else. So either I never start or I never finish. 3d

Librarybelle That was funny! 😂 5d
Daisey This part of the story made me laugh out loud. 🤣 4d
CogsOfEncouragement Yes! That was so funny!

I didn't believe W would ever go to the police station to turn SH in if he refused to bring W with him to burgle Milverton's home. Silly threat. But maybe SH, by saying W couldn't go, was just getting W to beg to go break the law. LOL
I think SH wanted W there all along. @Librarybelle @Daisey

dabbe @Librarybelle Just like @Daisey, I actually laughed out loud! 😂 4d
dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement And that reminds me of another favorite line. When Watson insists on going, Sherlock replies, “Well, well, my dear fellow, be it so. We have shared this same room for some years, and it would be amusing if we ended by sharing the same cell.“ 🤩 4d

Librarybelle I groaned as Holmes so lightly dismisses the poor maid and her affections. Not surprising, but still worthy of a groan! As to the “noble” lady and what she does…this is the part about Holmes‘ version of justice I referred to in the first question. Though, in this case, it could be construed as an eye for an eye, I suppose… 5d
CogsOfEncouragement Yeah, I flinched at finding out SH - in disguise - had romanced the maid into an engagement as he used her for info on the household. Then in one night she has no employment (maybe released from a horrible position) and her fiancé will disappear as if he never existed. Because he didn't. For the rest, I was entertained by their lawlessness as W was.
Also - SH knows how to woo, even though he is not inclined to marry. Very talented. @librarybelle
4d
CogsOfEncouragement Oh! I was skimming to answer question 4 and found this -
SH: However, I rejoice to say that I have a hated rival, who will certainly cut me out the instant my back in turned. What a splendid night it is!
So the maid has another suiter. She accepted Escott's (SH's) proposal, but she has another gentleman in love with her that she will hopefully be happy with. I didn't remember this important detail. We don't have to be mad. lol

CatLass007 Even though Agatha would have ended up with her other suitor, I really didn‘t like Sherlock‘s cavalier attitude. He isn‘t just misanthropic, he‘s misogynistic. 4d

Librarybelle Good question! I find him repulsive, to be honest, more than evil or clever. Moriarty is the more clever of the two, in my opinion. 5d
CogsOfEncouragement I kept thinking that society's reaction to whatever romance a woman had previously to meeting her eventual fiancé often gave him the power to blackmail. I'm sure some of these people were up to no good even by today's ideals and didn't want their misdeeds exposed, but I think many are things that would not give anyone any concern in 2024. Holding women to a standard men are not held to is always irritating. @Librarybelle 4d
Cuilin I was truly anxious reading this. I thought Charles was going to get the better of Sherlock!! 😱 but a woman saved the day!!! Pew pew. 4d

dabbe I don't think I've read a Sherlock story to date where more time was devoted by Sherlock to describe this despicable person. He spends more time describing Milverton than he did explaining Moriarty. And even though he doesn't murder these victims, per se, he does murder their chances of happiness if they can't pay him what he wants. 4d
dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement Oh, yes. Men will just have their fun, you know, but ladies ... well, we have a whole other list of standards for you. 🙄 4d
Read4life Excellent point @dabbe . Sherlock REALLY went all in in detailing how despicable Milverton was. I think Moriarty was more clever and Milverton was more disgusting. 3d

#TLT #ThreeListThursday

Litsy Holiday Recommendation Reads: I've made the list and checked it twice ... any errors are my own. Thank you to everyone who shared their spookiest, coziest, and/or favorite reads at this time of year. I comprised all into a Google spreadsheet; feel free to make a copy for yourself if you'd like. Let me know if you'd like to add anything. 🩵❄️🩵

To our never-ending TBRs. Here's the link: https://shorturl.at/rTGmI

Bookwomble @dabbe Have you read his Masks of God series? I've read two of them, but haven't got around to the other two. The tagged is another, shorter, work of his I like. 1w
BookmarkTavern This one‘s been on my TBR for a while. Looks like I need to bump it up! Thanks for posting! 1w
dabbe @Bookwomble No, I haven't. I watched THE POWER OF MYTH series with JC and Bill Moyers (and read the book), but I'll add these to the TBR. I've also read Christopher Vogler's THE WRITER'S JOURNEY: MYTHIC STRUCTURE FOR WRITERS and THE SEVEN BASIC PLOTS by Christopher Booker. The monomyth was the basis for everything I taught in freshmen honors English. 1w
