#BobWhiteBuddies

February's #BobWhiteBuddies read was enjoyable but not particularly outstanding. There really wasn't much “mystery,“ but I did enjoy the interactions of the gang.

Query: What do you all think was the point of making Dan a member of the Bob Whites and then literally never having him do anything with them?? 😂

Feel free to share any thoughts you had on this one!!

TheBookHippie I love the cover. 1w
BookmarkTavern The more cynical part of me says that subsequent writers saw 3 girls, 3 boys, and saw perfect little developing romances. The more hopeful part says that they‘re writing to people who maybe don‘t get to participate in as many things with their friends because of responsibilities, but they still get to see the BobWhites value and miss Dan. (edited) 1w
BookmarkTavern And I can‘t remember, do we see the journalist again? He‘s been set up as a pretty good long term antagonist for the group, but I don‘t remember seeing him again. 1w

The Marshland Mystery | Kathryn Kenny

I finished these at the beginning of March. Ozma of Oz starts off pretty unhinged, but end up being a more coherent story that Marvelous Land of Oz. This Trixie book was one of my favorites so far. I like that these feel like mysteries a kid could actually solve. This one also included a long-past tragedy and tumbled down mansion, so it was checking all the boxes for this Kate Morton reader. #bobwhitebuddies #BeyondtheYellowBrickRoad

BookmarkTavern What a gorgeous edition of Oz! 🤩🤩 2w

Honey‘s family is hosting a child violin prodigy while the BobWhites are trying to recreate a collection of pressed flowers for a teacher. Only, there is something out in the local marsh.

This was a mostly Trixie & Honey story. Di is barely there, the boys are in the background, & poor Dan only gets mentioned once. But we also see Trixie learning to not judge people by 1st impressions. & we meet an antagonistic journalist. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

Finished book 10 last Sunday for #BobWhiteBuddies & I‘m pretty sure this was the first Trixie Belden book I ever read. My sister had this copy & I ended up “borrowing” it & then asking for the rest of the series since she wasn‘t much of a reader. I remembered quite a bit of it as I was reading it, Gaye & her puppy & the gathering of the plants for their teacher. This one was pretty mild mystery-wise & as usual, Dan ⬇️

DebinHawaii … the newest Bob-White was too busy working to join in anything—although actually, all the boys were kept pretty busy for this one. I‘m looking forward to traveling with the Bob-Whites again in the next two books.

peaKnit I used to go to our local “dime store” with my grandma and get Trixie books…such a great memory. 1mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! I haven't read this one yet this month, but I am really looking forward to it. The next few are some of the first I read in the series as well, checking them out from our library. Then back in the early 2000s I happened to be shopping the discard shelf - and there they all were!!! So I own several of these in library hardcovers from my own library and love them so much!! 1mo
CatMS I think I read every Trixie Belden books as a youngster they were my favorites. 4w

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Spending my #HyggeHour on the couch with Trixie & the Bob-Whites for #BobWhiteBuddies & maybe catching up a bit with my tree-a-day reading (I‘m a little behind). There is tea & chocolate involved. 🫖 🍫

Mood is a little tired & not ready for Monday & my sure to be busy workweek, but I‘m getting close to some PTO time in the first week of March, so there‘s that.😵

TheAromaofBooks Hope your hygge time left you feeling rested!! 1mo
