“It occurred to Margery that she didn‘t just dislike the man, she loathed him.”

(Funny thing about voice to text is that there is no way it can capture how to hear the word “loathed”. 🤷🏻‍♀️) #greatword

IriDas Does it use two syllables? Or hard “th?” 2w

BkClubCare @IriDas - oh! I didn‘t try “loath - ed”; “low - thed”? Oh well, maybe next time. 😃 2w

The Mill House Murders: The Classic Japanese Locked Room Mystery | Yukito Ayatsuji

Did another puzzle while I listened to this great Japanese mystery. Hoopla‘s got two more books by Yukito Ayatsuji and I‘ve already added both to my list for the next time I have a gap in my listening schedule. #audiopuzzling

Into the Leopard's Den: A Bangalore Detectives Club Mystery | Harini Nagendra

Did a puzzle while I listened to another great Bangalore Detectives Club mystery. My favourite thing about these books is how Nagendra illuminates 1920s India; especially the class divisions Kaveri navigates, the growing push for independence from Britain, and the ways women support each other given the social limits placed on them. #audiopuzzling

This was a great P&P retelling! I am shocked it‘s not more popular. The audio was great, too.

The Queens of Crime: A Novel | Marie Benedict

so-so

Not my favourite Marie Benedict. There were some liberties that were a little too far for my taste. I also had a hard time following the story sometimes, I don‘t know if I was distracted or what but I won‘t remember this for long.

Hunter's Redoubt: The Burning Crown, Book One | Michelle West

My other holiday Monday project involves this big, complicated puzzle and the tagged book, which I was beyond glad to find on Hoopla. Michelle West is my favourite epic fantasy author and I‘m excited she‘s brought us back to Breodanir with this one. Her Sacred Hunt duology is my favourite and it‘s great to revisit that setting after many, many long books set elsewhere. #audiopuzzling

The Message | Ta-Nehisi Coates

pick

Listened to this #audiobook while playing PowerWash Simulator (#audiogaming ?) which feels like some of my other favorite activities - #audiopuzzling & #audiostitching.

Ta-Nehisi Coates reads wonderfully, and his writing works well in audio format. From Senegal to South Carolina to Palestine, he writes powerfully about race, myths, and the stories we tell ourselves. I appreciate how willing he was to be self-critical and show how he's changed.
