#SundayHappyReadingHour
Reading while munching on popcorn, sipping a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Emmy is joining the party. In another hour or so I will be feasting on my husband‘s pot roast with root vegetables & mashed potatoes. Yum!

Only read 6 pages of this during the week so it‘s my pick for #FridayHappyRradingHour
The office I read in has a door to our porch so I am answering the door as well- our first trick-or-treaters were a tiny Spider-Man and a transformer.

I get it if you are too busy with Halloween to join in. Happy Halloween!

My local library reopened over the weekend after a long remodel, and I just got a chance to stop in today… it looks amazing and the selection is small but well-curated (I mean, check out this haul!!)
Now to figure out which to read first… 🤔

Before dinner book & wine. My husband made a delicious Burmese dinner. 🧡
Now off to the World Series!

I am loving this series so much!!!! The growth of Mary Russell is perfect. I rated the book a 4 out of 5 stars.

I am loving this series so much. Love the characters growth and the adventures in each book. This book was very interesting on how the plot was done. Can't wait to read the next book. I rated the book a 4 out of 5 stars.

I swear, the last 3 of the Mary Russell books have been some of the best of the series, which is so hard to do when said series is so long. The addition of Russell‘s uncle to the cast makes for very entertaining reading!

Loved this book!!! I had been putting it off cause I wasn't ready for it. Loved Russell and Holmes so much!! I rated the book a 4 out of 5 stars.
