My 3rd & final March #ThematicCozies pick #Hobby almost didn‘t happen because when I started the audiobook the narration seemed to have almost no inflection & that bugged me. Since it was 4:30 AM & I was on my way to the airport & wanted it for my commutes last week, I sped it up to 1.5 & that was better. I was able to get into the story of Katie Bonner who becomes the manager of Artisan‘s Alley when her business ⬇️
This really makes me think I'd have a better time with murder mysteries if they were all novella length. A couple caveats: I've had a good time with each book in this series thanks to the cheeky meta angle as well as the quality of the writing, and the last two books were not novellas. I also accept that if you're a one off or the first book in a murder mystery series you might have to take more time to introduce characters, and that adds 1/?
Really liked this one about a future world where everyone is dead from a big bad fog, except a small group living on an island, all villagers and three elders who rule the roost. They seem happy enough, but are they? Big twist and a rather convoluted ending, but all in all kept my attention till I got to the end.

Stopped in to Barnes & Noble for a browse and I‘m captivated by the gorgeous edge papers on some of the new paperbacks. Isn‘t this beautiful? 😍
I read this for my book club.
A church is set on fire & someone is murdered, & the self-proclaimed “punk rock nun” becomes suspect propelling her to solve the crime.
This was a good mystery & I like Sister Holiday & her story, but I wasn‘t into the (understandable) religious parts sprinkled throughout. Bonus points for a lesbian main character.
