I so need a guy like the MMC, Ford. Just don't tell hubby. 🤫😉😅 I loved the characters and the snarky banter between them. The plot was good too if a bit slow in places. Already looking forward to book two in the series. 4🌟 #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #Read2025 @DieAReader

Finished the Sunday before last for #EBBR & I need to review these right after finishing them or take notes because I promptly forgot the (2?) that stumped me & I returned the library book.🤔Ah, well… also I couldn‘t get the ebook or print from the library at first so I tried the free audible version but I find I like reading these more than listening to them so I transferred the print copy in. Fun nostalgia as always.⬇️

DebinHawaii P.S. I like the old covers of my childhood more than the more modern ones the library has. 9h

I can't remember that Katniss was this irritating the first time I read Catching Fire. She was like a whiny child, only seeing what she wanted.

The story however was expertly executed, and gripping as ever.

OutsmartYourShelf

On Wednesday afternoon, wealthy businesswoman Ilaria Cavendish checks into a luxury London hotel as usual. Shortly afterwards, her lover discovers her dead & submerged in a bath of scalding hot water. Accident or murder? The CCTV shows that no-one went in the room or came out during the time she was killed, so if she was murdered how did they do it?

DS Maeve Kerrigan is working on the case which is being run by DI Josh Derwent. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf This is the first time they have worked together in a while & things have been tense between them, but when he is accused of something that Maeve knows he would never do, she swings into action to clear his name.

The Cavendish case is quite interesting & a little more involved than at first sight with hints of an Agatha Christie-esque sleight of hand, however it's the case involving Josh & his interactions with Maeve which are the biggest draw.
16h
OutsmartYourShelf I did work out what was happening early on so it was quite satisfying to see it all unfold. As for Maeve & Josh - you'll just have to read it & see for yourself. 4.5🌟

My thanks to #NetGalley & publisher, HarperCollins UK, for the opportunity to read an ARC.

#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025 #DynamicDs

Finished this weekend for #BobWhiteBuddies there is always a chance of #Danger when Trixie Belden is around. This one was a favorite growing up probably because of the NYC setting & finally, Dan gets to go somewhere! (Granted it‘s within state lines but anyway…) I can still recite the first 2 lines of the fortune Trixie is given by a fortune teller she helps at the airport which is pretty impressive since ⬇️

DebinHawaii … I have trouble remembering where I park my car at the grocery store. “Great-headed man, with blinking eye, A shaded road, a horse‘s cry,“ after that I only remember bits & pieces of the rest of it but there is a mention of #Danger: “Where shines a beacon 'cross the sky, Beware, great danger lurks close by.” so it works for today‘s prompt. Trixie is a bit annoying in this one & does some dumb things as does the gang. ⬇️ 18h
DebinHawaii … So what do they do right after declaring they will stay together as a group to keep safe? They separate of course, giving the inept bad guys yet another chance to try to grab the statue Trixie buys. Speaking of the statue, even the adults are awfully careless with it. But still, I have much nostalgic love for this series & this book (#12 in the series), so it‘s a pick. Next up we go to Corbett‘s Island, another favorite of my youth. (edited) 18h

Tangled Up in You | Christina Lauren

Pickpick

This Rapunzel retelling was so charming. This is the first in this series (Meant to Be) that I‘ve read. I‘ve had this on my shelf for a bit. Christina Lauren are authors I usually enjoy so this was a no brainer pick for April‘s #TBRtarot
The MCs grow, open up, struggle & get their HEA. CL respects the Tangled story while still making it uniquely their own.

This is age gap (10 years), forbidden romance where the MMC falls in love with his best friend's little sister. I liked it. It was all fluff. Yet, the author did a great job making me care about the characters. 4🌟 #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #Read2025 @DieAReader

I adore Jenny Colgan books. The setting & characters in Mure are just fantastic. Wonderfully written & perfectly imperfect & real.

This was a rolled #Roll100 book for me this month & it‘s also on my #readyourebooks list.

With this completed read I also completed my April #BookSpinBingo board. 🤓

@Oryx has found a gem! I now have to get the next book in the series because this ends with a cliffhanger. 😬

Truly enjoyed being in the head of this psychopath and need to know what is going to happen next.

Leniverse Thanks for the warning. I hate cliffhangers, especially when I don't expect them. 3d

Oryx Yes!! Right?? It's so fun. I am also enjoying the second one, and 3 and 4 are on their way. So happy you also enjoyed them! 2d
