It‘s not you it‘s me , definitely a marmite read , as others have said starts well and could have been two engrossing stories , always love a ghost 👻 story or even better narrated by a ghost , but tbh it just bored me , the dual time lines , which I usually love didn‘t work for me I had no interest in her previous life in Australia, I also have bass rock on my TBR which Iv been told is far superior

This is my favorite book series & I figured it‘s time for a reread. The narrator (Stephanie Daniel) is fabulous & I can‘t recommend this series enough! 5⭐️

@MrsGagnonreads2024 this box is spectacular!! The book choices are 🤌🏼 & the tea smells divine, but I absolutely adore all of the gifts you _made yourself!!_ The bookmarks are gorgeous, the leaf tchotchke-holder is so pretty, & I love the skull & claw decos! That cup is sooo pretty too! My pics do none of this justice, but I 🧡 everything!

Bad news days call for new, used books for the teens on tweens on my street. America's in trouble, but I can share books. #lfl #read #middlegrade #ya

September is Ovarian Awareness Month, and this is my plea to every woman to make herself aware of the symptoms. Ovarian cancer is called the silent killer because the early symptoms are so subtle they can be attributed to other common issues. Because of that, women often go undiagnosed until it has advanced to a point that prognosis is grim. There is no lump to find, no screener to routinely give, no clear way to diagnose except surgery. ⬇️

I've listened to these Aaron Falk books all in the wrong order but I don't think it matters.
Steve Shanahan's narration is to Jane Harper as Kimberley Farr's is to Elizabeth Strout.
It's a dark enough tale from the get-go, but you knew that already. (I guessed the "who" but not the "why".)

One of my favorite things about Miss Fisher‘s Murder Mysteries is Phryne‘s fabulous wardrobe! The 1920s is my favorite time period in general, but for clothes especially.

fabulous frocks flow
freely from Phryne‘s fantastic
form — flatteringly.
