pickI really enjoyed this #DayOfTheDead #ThematicCozies book. I am hoping to find the next one on Libby :) --- Growing up, my family celebrates the Day of the Dead. My husband and I have tried to keep this tradition in VT with a little offering we keep in our home, but I really need to find a better area to put it in our home, so I can tend to it properly.
Pic is from a Doggie Church in VT that reminded me of home.
Would that be a Charley Davidson reference I spy 🤔
I love when authors include little easter eggs of their other other works.
pickEverett has a way of writing characters that just draws me in, even if the plot confuses me. I wish I could identify what it is he does because it's really effective. I really enjoyed this one, although when I got to the third story, I wondered if I'd been reading the whole thing wrong. In the first and third stories, Ogden had been in the army, and in the second, he'd been in the Marines; I assumed this was an oversight, but now I'm not sure.
I am trying out this old novel about cliff dwellers near Los Alamos, NM. Author was a scientist who died in 1914.
After a long day helping set up the high school gym for the Grad Night party, having an awesome time subbing a prealgebra class, and playing tennis with my spouse, I have a precious few minutes to read the tagged under a lovely sky before my kid is done with orchestra rehearsal.

“Are you afraid?“ she asked in turn. She put her bowl aside and stared into my eyes.
“No,“ I said.
“Why?“

“I will tell you why,“ she smiled. “It is because good is always stronger than evil. Always remember that, Antonio. The smallest bit of good can stand against all the powers of evil in the world and it will emerge triumphant...“

1- One of my ancestral American Indigenous languages, mainly Oʼodham.
2- American English is my only language. Wasn't interested in learning Spanish (I do know a few words). The tagged has a lot of Spanish dialogue without direct translations.

Thank you @TheSpineView for creating this fun play-card 💕🐎📚.
1- I usually only read at bedtime, so at an incline 😂. My favorite is sitting in the garden or inside beside seasonal decorations or a fountain.
2- I expected a Grandma-like character, and a cozy-kind of story. This is a very serious, deeply meaningful story.
