#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025 #DynamicDs

Finished this weekend for #BobWhiteBuddies there is always a chance of #Danger when Trixie Belden is around. This one was a favorite growing up probably because of the NYC setting & finally, Dan gets to go somewhere! (Granted it‘s within state lines but anyway…) I can still recite the first 2 lines of the fortune Trixie is given by a fortune teller she helps at the airport which is pretty impressive since ⬇️

DebinHawaii … I have trouble remembering where I park my car at the grocery store. “Great-headed man, with blinking eye, A shaded road, a horse‘s cry,“ after that I only remember bits & pieces of the rest of it but there is a mention of #Danger: “Where shines a beacon 'cross the sky, Beware, great danger lurks close by.” so it works for today‘s prompt. Trixie is a bit annoying in this one & does some dumb things as does the gang. ⬇️ 1w
DebinHawaii … So what do they do right after declaring they will stay together as a group to keep safe? They separate of course, giving the inept bad guys yet another chance to try to grab the statue Trixie buys. Speaking of the statue, even the adults are awfully careless with it. But still, I have much nostalgic love for this series & this book (#12 in the series), so it‘s a pick. Next up we go to Cobbett‘s Island, another favorite of my youth. (edited) 1w

lauraisntwilder I've been avoiding reading your review until I finished the book myself. You're exactly right about the kids splitting up. So silly. There's a part of me, as a stick-in-the-mud grown-up, that would like to see Trixie get grounded or something. Enough of this "she's been punished enough" or "she's learned her lesson." Obviously not!!! 3d
DebinHawaii @lauraisntwilder Yes! She definitely doesn‘t get held accountable enough! 😡 3d

#ReadYourEBook

I started the tagged yesterday as it‘s next up on my #NetGalley list. I “enjoyed” her other books and am hopeful about this one. I doubt I will get to #12 as I‘m not feeling it but the top 2 stand a chance.

CBee I‘ve heard great things about Ann Cleeves, but haven‘t ever read any of her books 🤷‍♀️ 1mo

January 2025 Book #4
Book 2 in A Year Round Christmas Mysteries series. Read for #CBBC 2025 @Mommamanzi
I liked this book 2 better that the first one. Also predictable but we see more drama, town gossip with funny scenes, expected in cozy mysteries☺️I think I will try book 3⭐️

I‘m actually still working on a book from the February #bookspin so I‘m picking short reads for this month‘s numbers.

My prompt #1 is “A First”.
My prompt #12 is “Paperback Crush”.

As always, thank you @TheAromaofBooks ! I hope the move is going ok.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Thank you, things are going great!! We are staying at the new house yet, which is AMAZING but internet is sketchy 😂 Hopefully that will get straightened out sometime this week!! 2mo
Sace @TheAromaofBooks glad things are going well! Hope the internet gets settled. 2mo

Pod Meets World made me do it! It's actually an interesting book, even if the main character hasn't really learned anything by the end. She's on the possibly right road, but there isn't any real growth showing yet. I'm not mad that Rider Strong suggested it. #12-2025

I really enjoyed listening to him tell his story. A true rags to riches, Venezuela to Hollywood American dream. He is altruistic and compassionate about helping others. The love he openly expresses for his family is heartwarming. Book #12 in 2025

Another cozy mystery that just didn't do it for me. However, this was #12 in a series that I'd never read, & I imagine that I would have enjoyed it much more had I been invested for that long. I did love that the crochet patterns for important items in the plot were included!

⭐⭐/⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
