so-soBerkeley‘s Arms is a home for wealthy elderly in Florida. We meet its residents (mostly female) who spend their days in their rocking chairs on the porch, gossiping about each other and making up stories of their own lives. It‘s probably true to life, which makes it sad, but it reads like a fun story. Not Tove Jansson‘s best one though.

I am reading and enjoying A Midsummer‘s Equation, a Japanese mystery. I can‘t wait to start Tilt afterwards for #CampLitsy25. I also want to read this beautiful edition of Sun City by Tove Jansson.

pickA different sort of "summer read", one I enjoyed immensely. Tove Jansson is one of those authors I've known about forever but had never read (not even the Moomins, which aren't as well known in the US as Europe). I knew that she was fascinated by America's unique (to put it nicely) attitude toward aging and the elderly, and she really captured the pathos of being abandoned in "paradise" with insight and gentle humor.
pickMy daughter goes to school about an hour from where these take place & a friend of mine lives there. It makes them even more entertaining to me. I found myself laughing throughout this book. Such a great escape.

I truly wanted to prolong this for a bit longer, but in this crazy world the RileyThorn Mysteries have become my favorite escape.
It was fun continuing the journey with these wacky characters. I love this series, I really hope this goes on for many books...although I don't know when I can go and add the next one to my library. Thankfully, I have the first four in this series.
And good thing, because this completed on a grand cliffhanger!

I often become irritated with Nick Santiago's immature character, yet I also can't help but find it hilarious when he seems like the only responsible adult...😂📚💝.

I'm enjoying that the character, Weber is more weaved into this second book...he is the police detective that Riley is consulting for.

•An interesting conclusion to Nick and Quinn‘s story, although things did get a touch difficult to follow, what with the back and forth between the parallel dimensions. Overall, I recommend this to anyone who enjoys time-travel romance.
•Samantha Brentmoor & Jason Clarke‘s narration was excellent.
