Book three in the series and another hit with me. A solid story and good characters. A short and satisfying Christmas romance. 4⭐️ 💚🎄❤️📖💚📚❤️
Another cute installment in the series!

My favorite in the series so far, and Three Pines was barely in it! Chief inspector Gamache and his wife are celebrating their anniversary at Manoir Bellechasse, just over the mountain range from Three Pines. Yearly visitors, this visit coincides with the Morrow family reunion, including the Gamache‘s friends from Three Pines, Peter and Clara. The last book hinted at Peter‘s dark side. When a Morrow is killed, is Peter to blame or another ⬇️
If I had to choose one word for how I felt while reading this series of books, I think it would be “baffled.“ These characters constantly made decisions that made no sense. The narrative frequently made no sense. The motivations made pretty much no sense. A few samples: two grown adults have a “cheesecake fight“ in the kitchen ruining the desert and dinner party they're attending (after the FMC starts EATING IT WITH HER BARE HANDS?!); two people ⬇
This was close to being a “so-so“. The plot was convoluted and barely plausible, and I would have liked to spend more time in Three Pines, but it was still a page-turner with a big finish.
I also liked the new French Canadian audiobook narrator. The previous narrators were great (arguably better) but the mispronounced words made me cringe.

Loved it. 🌶️🥵 great spice. Love how House Gluttony is portrayed, Gabriel‘s plotting & the ICE DRAGONS! Adriana spirals quite a bit, from the perspective of being a single woman without a suitable match who can‘t afford another scandal… it‘s not that I don‘t get it, but ooof. Luckily it doesn‘t dwell there for too long, she was a lil maddening. Really loving this series!
I have to say, I think this is my favorite Discworld book so far. I liked the characters in this one, and the plot was ingenious. Even though it has been over 20 years since this book was published, it is still revelant today. Of course, with Pratchett's signature humor, it was pure fun to read. 4.5⭐️
Super sweet Christmas romance with a single dad, one naughty 6 year old, and a family friend turned nanny. At only 208 pages, this book was a quick listen at work. It had Nicholas Sparks vibes and my only complaint was that it was too short. I liked the characters enough that more development would have been appreciated. 3.5⭐️

Day 2 results for the #WinterGames #HolidayBookDragons @LiseWorks
I read for 8.5 hours yesterday. I finished two books and a third in the early morning hours because of insomnia. I'll count the third book as part of today's results since reading at 2AM is technically today.
