Welcome to Litsy!

I am enjoying this series. Unfortunately this audiobook was missing parts. At the beginning it started in the middle of a sentence in the middle of a scene, the book intro & beginning were not there. This kept happening throughout the book at what I'm guessing would have been the beginning of each cd (I had a digital copy). So I missed what seemed like fairly significant chunks & had trouble figuring out who people were & following the clues.

The Callahan Garritty mystery series books are quick and easy reads. I liked this one better than most of them because the plot involving a missing Civil War diary was more interesting to me.

Another shot from #afwd2017. I wouldn't classify the Callahan Garritty books as cozies. They're light-ish, but she tackles racism, homelessness, and other social issues that I don't think you find in a cozy mystery. They read a little dated because they from the early 90s, but it's actually refreshing to see Callahan have to chase down info and not just whip out a smartphone. She's a PI, so that doesn't fit the cozy amateur sleuth genre rules.

Looks like I'm on a cozy kick. Part of the charm of these is that they're written in the early 90s, so no cellphones or internet. They read a little dated, but in the best way.
