I had a great December reading month, buoyed by days off at the end if the month. I finished 22 books A couple were short stories & the cumulation of a year-long daily read but I also had one chunkster of an audiobook.

I finished books for #SundayBuddyRead #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #NancyDrewBR
#BobWhiteBuddies #EBBR #MonthlyNonFiction #ThematicCozies
#FictionalTraveler #Rol|100 (3) #AuthorAMonth
#Naturalitsy & #SeriesLove2025

DebinHawaii … A good mix of genres & four audiobooks. Favorites were King Sorrow, First Sign of Danger, The Women of Wild Hill, The Hollow Places & Winter In the Blood. I also made it through 60% of The Ordeals which I will finish today. (edited) 1d

I am participating in two awesome readathons to carry me into the next year:

#26for26
#Welcome2026Readathon

I‘m not going to finish “Ship of Theseus” for #OffMyShelf by tonight midnight, so it and volumes two and three of the March series will carry into 2026. Once they‘re completed, I‘ll start on my various January group reads: #NancyDrewBR #EBBR #FurrowedMiddlebrowClub and #HashtagBrigade . 🥳

Bookwormjillk I just pulled Wooden Lady off the shelf yesterday and am very curious to see why they're all in a rowboat with a statue. 2d
Ruthiella @Bookwormjillk I thought, “Of course it‘s George who is rowing “! 😆 2d

Hey #EBBR friends. Happy new year to you! We are kicking 2026 of with the rather ominously titled tagged book which is I think no. 12 in the series. Hope you can join in. 👍

This buddy read is open to anyone. If you would like to be added to or removed from the tag list, let me know.

Ruthiella Thank you!🙏 2d

DebinHawaii I pulled 11 & 12 off the library shelves by their number on the back & didn‘t pay any attention to the title. I had to check & see if I had the right book because you would think I would have noticed! 😂😱 3d
Ruthiella @dabbe Thank you! 🙏 3d
Ruthiella @DebinHawaii I didn‘t notice right away either. 😂😱 3d

Finished last weekend for #EBBR & as usual, I didn‘t review it right after I read it & forgot most of it but I did solve a few. I do remember typing sentence (high school typing class) & the rattling dollar but I missed several of these as the solutions were really odd tiny details. I don‘t really remember this one from childhood, but, it still gets a soft pick for nostalgia‘s sake.

Ruthiella The devil really was in the details in this one. Hat sizes? And wouldn‘t the sandwich have made the shoes or hat smell? 😆 2w

Happy holidays #EBBR friends. How‘d you get on with this month‘s selection? I didn‘t really even try. The solutions felt waaaay far fetched. Hat sizes? Words that start and end with the same two letters? The only one I solved was The Case of the Window Dressers along with Sally. 😂

I‘m pretty sure I read this one before because a few of the cases felt familiar. I had fun reading it, even though the “mysteries” were pretty thin.

RaeLovesToRead "The case of the exploding toilet???" 2w
Ruthiella @RaeLovesToRead Yup! The book is geared toward 10 year olds, after all! 😆 2w

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

For tonight‘s #HyggeHour I‘m reading the 11th Encyclopedia Brown book for #EBBR & then probably starting the pictured cozy for #FictionalTraveler

I‘m on the couch drinking holiday herbal tea & eating a local chocolate bar with lilikoi & coconut.

Mood is fine. It will be a busy but short week with a trip to Hilo & a 3-day weekend & I‘m happy about that.

Ruthiella Nice! I also just started the Encyclopedia Brown tonight. 👍 3w
AllDebooks Cosy mysteries are a must. Enjoy you short week. X 3w
TheBookHippie Yay for short week! 3w

6/10 solution rate. 😂

#EBBR @Ruthiella

Ruthiella Not too bad! I feel like the solutions are becoming a bit more of a stretch in these later books! 😅 4w

#BobWhiteBuddies #EBBR #RiseUpReads #MonthlyNonFiction #ThematicCozies #FictionalTraveler #Roll100 (3) #AuthorAMonth &SeriesLove2025

Every month I read the book for #EBBR & then don‘t write down my results & return it to the library before I get around to reviewing it! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Anyway, I think I was only somewhat successful in solving the mysteries in this one but who knows?! 🤷🏻‍♀️ I didn‘t remember them from childhood so I may have missed this one, #10 in the series. It gets a soft pick as they mostly all do.

Ruthiella I sometimes weirdly do remember the occasional solution to a case from childhood. But only with Encyclopedia. With Nancy Drew, I have absolutely no memory. 😅 1mo
DebinHawaii @Ruthiella I usually remember some of them but this book I didn‘t & I‘m hit or miss with Nanners! 😆 1mo
