I really love this series. A strong female MC who makes a life for herself outside society‘s norms, a damaged but kind male love interest and a good mystery. Caught up to next year‘s release of A Grave Robbery.

I absolutely ADORE Veronica speedwell but the last book left me wanting. Let me reassure you that if you felt the same, give this book a go. It restored my faith in the whole thing. Also I do love a locked room mystery. My only gripe is over the narration, they do not make Stoker sound anywhere near as hot as he comes across in print 🤣in fact he sounds positively elderly. so if you want your imagination left as it is, read don‘t listen.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This one find Veronica and Stoker at the Templeton-Vane estate, helping Stoker's brother Tiberius solve the mystery of who wants to kill him. It's another fun romp!
20 books in March and while there weren‘t any 5 star reads, there were plenty of books I really enjoyed…starting with the tagged book, another excellent Veronica Speedwell outing. I also read a number of great sequels in some fav MG and YA series, devoured Mike Curato‘s fantastic graphic novel, enjoyed Setterfield‘s Bellman & Black and was very entertained by Hell of a Book. One more day of C2E2 and then it‘ll be back into the reading trenches.
This was exactly what I needed yesterday. A bit of sleuthing, a lot of Veronica Speedwell and Stoker and Tiberius and Merryweather. Set at the Templeton-Vane's modest ? country pile at the Jurassic coast the murder actually involves fossils. ?
I knew "whodunnit" early on, but it's the chase that's interesting. With Stoker and Veronica at odds this was more time alone with Veronica; and, of course, seeing how much she can rile up Stoker.
"You must not go into the forest at night," the innkeeper warned, his voice trembling with fear. "Something dangerous walks there in the darkness."

#SeriesLove2023 @TheSpineView @Andrew65 - Book 8 in the Veronica Speedwell series
A few of my favorite things - sunshine, rainstorms and reading.
This one was a bit weird. Veronica and Stoker were on the outs, so they didn‘t spend a ton of time together solving crimes. They actually weren‘t very friendly to each other most of the book. I‘m hoping the next book they actually work together to solve a crime!
Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. And we got to spend more time with Stoker‘s brothers.
I love this series.

My absolute favorite historical mystery series, and this most recent installment is one of the best. Multiple murders, more than one murderer, the usual red herrings, and the always fascinating relationship between Veronica and Stoker. Nobody writes better dialogue than Raybourn, I‘m convinced. I took the picture at the Orlando Science Center, and it fits perfectly with the book, but you‘ll need to read it to find out why 😄
Book 8 in the Veronica Speedwell series, which is my favorite historical mystery series. Love the characters, snappy dialogue, science, and bit of romance.
The only reason I hadn‘t started this yet was the fact that both hubby‘s and my alma maters ran deep in the Big 10 basketball tournament. I‘ve got until the NCAA Tournament really gets rolling on Thursday to get through this. I doubt it will take me that long, since I have trouble putting these books down.
It‘s a Veronica Speedwell mystery so of course it‘s a fun read. I actually liked this one more than the previous book. This one centers around Stoker‘s brother and an incident from his past—there‘s a grand house, old secrets, murder, and, as always, the ever complicated relationship between Veronica and Stoker.
Excited to spend a little time with Veronica Speedwell and Stoker today…
“Fresh off her instant New York Times bestselling KILLERS OF A CERTAIN AGE, fans of Deanna Raybourn will be thrilled for the next installment of her award-winning, bestselling Veronica Speedwell series: A SINISTER REVENGE.”

Love this series!❤️
I'm late with my March #BookSpin list, but since I haven't had time to read yet this month, I think it's okay. 😂
My most anticipated book is tagged; I LOVE the Veronica Speedwell series and the last one ended on a cliffhanger! I've already got the audiobook pre-ordered. 🥰
In February, I read 4 books, three of which ticked (4) boxes on my February Book Spin list. I'm looking forward to seeing what March brings to my TBR!
