The Long and the Short of It | Jodi Taylor
12 posts | 13 read | 3 to read
Follow the disaster magnets of St Mary's as they hurtle around history! The ninth book in The Chronicles of St Mary's Series collects the bestselling short stories in print for the first time. When a Child is Born - A jump back to 1066 to witness the coronation of William the Conqueror goes slightly astray. Roman Holiday - Max and her team become spectacularly involved with Julius Caesar, Cleopatra and a basket of confused asps. Christmas Present - An attempt to rescue lost historians involving an enraged pig and Boudicca herself. The Very First Damned Thing - Discover the truth about the very beginning of St Mary's. Ships and Stings and Wedding Rings - A gun left behind in Ancient Egypt and a race against time to prevent a catastrophe. The Great St Mary's Day Out - Hooray! It's a happy holiday. For everyone except Max - the only one with her mind on the job. My Name is Markham - Alfred, the cakes and Mr Markham. The Great British Bake Off it's not! And a bonus - a new and previously unpublished short story.

#BookReport
I have been in a bit of a slump and not able to focus on reading things for challenges so I've been getting back into the St. Mary's books and binging through those. So it's been a productive reading week just not challenge wise.

#WeeklyForecast
Goal this week is to make big progress in Sea of Tranquility as I need to read it for work.

I caught up on the short stories that are part of the Chronicles of St. Mary's series. This series is one of my favorites. 2nd book finished for #AwesomeAugust @Andrew65

This was my February #BookSpin, my first completed BookSpin/DoubleSpin of the year—and I actually managed to read it in the month it was picked! 😂

This is definitely for fans of the main series: short stories featuring the beloved characters of St. Mary‘s in more hilarious adventures traveling through history. I loved getting to see perspectives other than Max‘s, as well as seeing the very beginning of St. Mary‘s. I thoroughly enjoyed these!

Saturday night book: collected St Mary‘s short stories. I‘ve read done of these already, but that didn‘t stop me picking this up at the library to fill in some gaps. Love this series.

A little #bookmail just in time to take my mind off the $230 that had to be coughed up for a new car battery today. I love my HEMI Charger, but the maintenance and repair bills are brutal. 💸💸💸💸

(Bonus #dogsofLitsy shot, too. #Pilot)

Tamra Ugh, I just hate spending on stuff like that bc I just see books I can't buy. 😏 7y
DGRachel @Tamra Right?!? 7y
Balibee146 I feel your pain. Hello Pilot you look like a very cuddly pooch 😍 7y
DGRachel @Balibee146 He's a snuggler for sure! At least, when he isn't mad at me for leaving the house without him. I should have taken him for a car ride after I got back with the new battery. He's been moping for the last two hours. 😂 7y
AmyG I feel your pain, too. Just spent $345 on a new garage door motor. ☹️ 7y

A new offering!!! The volume of short stories and a new one! I love Jodi Taylor, this series, and the narrator. And she tells how each short story was born! What a find!
