I guess Trixie Belden is getting republished?!? I wonder if the books are getting updated like the Nancy Drew books were.

pickI really enjoyed November's Trixie mystery. I know I've said it before, but I love how Trixie isn't perfect. In this story, she's biased against Dan from the start just because of how he looks/what he wears, and that comes back to bite her. Were some things in this book a little too tidy/easy? Absolutely, but that's okay because it's fiction 😂
Did you all get to this one? Any thoughts?
One other thing, I wondered how crazy the mountain lion ⬇
I feel good about my November reading. I guess hiding after the election helped my numbers as I finished 20 books including my 3 November #Roll100 + 2 more from previous months. I also finished books for #SeasonalCozies #BobWhiteBuddies ChildrensClassicRead2024 #Naturalitsy #FoodAndLit & I finished my #OUABC 40 Book challenge, met my 150 book goal on Goodreads & I‘m 1 book away from my #BOTM challenge. Favorites were: We Solve Murders, Shark ⬇️
pickYay! We're back in Sleepyside, getting lost in the woods repeatedly! But now there's a mountain lion! I love this cover so much, and loved the idea of Trixie judging someone for wearing a black leather jacket. 😂 My biggest critique was that, in my edition, Di Lynch didn't show up until page 80 and she wasn't part of any of the action of the story. Not sure how another BWG is going to fit, if we barely had room for Di! #bobwhitebuddies

Finished Sunday for #BobWhiteBuddies Trixie # 8 revolves around Trixie coming up with an idea to have an ice carnival to help raise money to rebuild her Mexican penpals‘ school library (a concept any reader can get behind). It also introduces a new character & addition to the club, Dan, who has a rocky start with the group & especially Trixie. Small spoiler… I always felt sorry for Dan because he rarely got to go ⬇️

Trixie & I are hanging out for #HyggeHour tonight, along with Sleepytime tea & some peanut butter & jelly M&Ms. (I feel like these are better in theory than in taste but they aren‘t bad, because… chocolate) 😉
Looking forward to a shorter week with the holiday although it will still be a busy one & I need to work Friday morning. 🤷🏻♀️
pickPlaying catch up, since I missed last month's #bobwhitebuddies read. I enjoyed this one, even though the mystery took a backseat. My favorite part was when Trixie went dress shopping with her mom.
Hey #BobWhiteBuddies !!! Quick question - do we want to skip December and pick up in January with The Happy Valley Mystery, or are we good to read Happy Valley in December? I'm fine either way, but I know this time of year can get overwhelming, so just let me know what you think!!

pickA new kid in town means a new mystery for the Bob Whites! In addition to figuring out an ice carnival to raise donations, Trixie needs to find out just what is going on with tough city boy Dan.
A lower stakes mystery for the kids, but just as much heart. Love how the kids all take on an activist role for their friends, & seeing most of them jump to conclusions about Dan, then apologize when they‘re wrong is heartening.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
I failed to read as much as I wanted or complete all of my books & challenges for October & #HauntedShelf but I did manage to finish some & read/listened to 15 books + 1 children‘s book & 2 stories.
I still need to do reviews but I finished for #SundayBuddyRead #SheSaid #ChildrensClassicRead2024 #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies 3 for #SeasonalCozies #SeriesLive my 3 #Roll100 books but no #CastTheDie
Starting fresh for November & working on my #TBR
