Welcome to Litsy!

Banana Cream Pie Murder was a fun, lighthearted read with plenty of humor.

Reading this one next, when I‘m not reading Wuthering Heights

I'm nearly at the end (of what's written so far) of the Hannah Swenson series. Without giving too much away, my thoughts are that as much as I hated the love triangle between Hannah, Mike, and Norman, I absolutely HATE HATE HATE what she did to resolve it. Ugh. Even though there was a bit of a cliffhanger, I think I'll wait a bit to read Raspberry Danish.

And so it begins. Unemployed stay-at-home-ness with this blue-eyed boo.

Need light reads after a long weekend of skiing!

My husband and I have coffee together every morning when he comes home from PT. Then I read with more coffee when he goes to work.

I wasn't a fan of the book, but this reference to Luanne's #laugh was so picturesque and unexpected it stuck in my memory.

Wow#21 in the Hannah Swensen sweet murder mysteries. I have read all but#20 holiday book. Next one #22 to be released soon. I admit they are a little cheesy, but I keep reading them because I feel like I know everyone in Lake Eden😳

Fulfilling my goal to catch up on the series I'm behind on and Banana Cream Pie Murder brings me up to date in Joanne fluke's Hannah Swensen cozy mystery series. This one ends with a bit more of a cliffhanger than usual making me glad that the next in the series is due to be released next month!

I'm really don't know what to say about this. It's better than the last one? My sister & I have read the Hannah series together for years, so we keep reading, but it no longer resembles the series we loved. We heard Joanne speak, which was awesome, and there was fun audience back and forth over Mike v. Norman. So the sudden Ross thing is just WEIRD. Plus, the mystery & detection isn't really there, just a recital of monotonous daily activities. 👇

I've stopped reading these series at least 5 years ago. Why do cozy series go on and on, run to the ground the characters, the universe the writers created? Now cozy series leave me 🤷🏼‍♀️and I rarely start a new series. #emojinov

I've read the series from the beginning, but it feels like the author no longer cares. The last 5 have been painful to read and is it just me or does Hannah sound more flakey than the independent business owner/crime solver that she used to be?

Book 21 in the series, and I just can't stop coming back. Formulaic but still good for a mindless read, the recipes are now the highlights vs. the story. That being said, there's an ending to this which may hint at a change that's long overdue. Will keep reading even if I do want to punch Ross in the face each time he calls Hannah "Cookie ".

So....no one decided to mention that it's "Babybel," not "Baby Bell?" Cute. (I can't believe I'm still reading this, it's actually frickin' PAINFUL. And a lot of this feels like a kid wrote it.)

(I promise that I'll stop posting about this travesty now, but o m g .)

S e r i o u s l y . Among this, the fact that she still doesn't know how to turn on her cell phone, and the whole thing about "WELL HOW DO I KNOW WHICH BEER IS A PALE LAGER???" (YOU READ THE SIGN ON THE SHELF, OR, IDK, THE BOTTLE?????) I honestly can't deal. I also don't know how much more of an idiot Hannah could possibly be. ?

Since "Christmas Caramel" has a wait-list and "Banana Cream" has to go back to the library tomorrow, I said to heck with reading them in order; it's not like it really matters with these. ? (And, uh, maybe Hannah should have thought about the fact that marrying a guy meant she'd have to share a bathroom with him??? She's such an awful character now. WHY DO I KEEP READING THESE.)

I keep saying I'm done with this series, and then I see a new one, and somehow, my hands overrule my brain and I end up coming home from the library with it. Let's see what kind of mess Hannah gets herself into this time. (At least there are recipes.) #hannahswensen

Latest in the Hannah Swensen mystery series. This one is much better than the last two. Does anyone else read these? I'm blown away by the ending of this one, which really opens up to what I think the next book in the series will cover. Quirky characters make this book, and others in the series, a nice way to escape to Minnesota for a time. Plus, lots and lots of recipes!

Starting this one tonight...

On the road today.... but I still have my Pi day reading... not sure if I will get pie today Happy #piday
