For April's #SeasonalCozies @julieclair I went back to Hygge Hideaway Book 4. It was kind of repetitive. Book 5 is set in summer so I searched my Audible a discovered Death in English Cottage. I've read the 1st in Series awhile back. Features Location Scout for Jane Austen Movie. It's specifically set in Spring. 🥀

julieclair It seems like the Hygge Hideaway books have not lived up to the promise of their lovely covers. 🫤 But a cozy based on location scouting for a Jane Austen movie? That sounds fabulous! Hope you enjoy! 1d
Crinoline_Laphroaig @julieclair at least they are short. You can read them in an hour. 😄 1d
julieclair 😂 I love your positivity! 1d

April @booklyapp monthly report. 19 books total. There were several buddy reads this month along with reading challenges. Overall, I enjoyed all these books and most were either four or five stars for me.

Mehso-so


This has been my least favorite in the series. Mrs. Hooper dies mysteriously and all of the neighbors in Finch suspect one another, but protect one another because they did not like Mrs. Hooper (big gossip and trouble maker). Lori (MC) is out to find the truth with the help of Nicholas Fox, the vicars nephew. I still like the characters but in this one Lori has a “wandering eye“ for Nicholas, her husband accepts it, nothing happens but ⬇️

bthegood ...it seemed childish and not necessary for the plot or a cozy. The rest of the storyline, death and gossip and clearing the air between neighbors, was good. Will definitely continue with the series.
7/22 for #SeriesLove2024
2 books finished for #AwesomeApril readathon
Make a great day everyone 😊

I‘ve had the Martha‘s Vineyard mystery series on my to read list for years, so thought I would take advantage of listening to the first one through my Audible membership. Oh boy…not for me!

Victoria I think is supposed to represent the stereotypical “crusty” New Englander - hardy, sarcastic, and set in one‘s way. I never warmed to her, and the harbor master continuously calling her sweetheart was not endearing. Sad to pan, but it felt like ⬇️

Librarybelle ⬆️ the story started almost in the middle of the story, as if I should have known the characters before the book. I had to double check this was the first in the series. Maybe this is better read rather than listened to - every time I listen to Davina Porter narrate a book that is not of the Outlander series I am confused. But, I think my qualms with this book go beyond any confusion I had with the narration and keeping the characters straight. 5d
Hooked_on_books Well that‘s a bummer. Cute cover, at least. 5d

OK, I think this will be my May pick for #SeasonalCozies as it is set during Memorial Day. It also meets my criteria for being first in a series (Nantucket Candle Maker Mystery) & cheap/free (it‘s on Kindle Unlimited).

Still finishing up April‘s pick.

julieclair Oohhh… I need a Massachusetts book for #ReadTheUSA2024, and this looks fun! Added to my stack. 4d

My #SeasonalCozies pick for May is The Cornish Wedding Murder, because our wedding anniversary takes place in May, and we will be visiting Cornwall! 💍👰🤵‍♂️🇬🇧

 @OriginalCyn620 and @CoffeeNBooks have already posted their Mother‘s Day themed picks, and @Read4life is continuing with the Calendar Murder Mystery series. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else will be reading!
