pickAnna Pigeon is working on 2 cases and getting beat up in the process. 1 is the murder of an abusive man (and he didn‘t go down easily and 2 is the cyber stalking of a friend‘s teenager. Fairly fast paced and entertaining but I had difficulty in believing the craziness of one individual 🤷🏻♀️
Beautiful day yesterday for a hike along the shore. Vacationing here with my family. Such magnificent, sweeping views, warm sun, colorful fauna,rocks to climb over. #oceanpathtrail #hikingacadia #acadianationalpark #familyvacation
1. Whatever I get my hands on
2. Mostly the library
3. Yes, especially during my commute
4. Libby, cloud library, hoopla
5. I was pleased when a book I‘d already started reading was announced as the February selection for the mystery book club at the library, but last night I realized I can‘t go to the meeting. I might finish it anyway, or more likely I‘ll return it and try again later. ⬇️

Two of my favorite authors and my least favorite of their books.

Anna Pigeon has been to many parts of the #USA for her job, but so far there hasn‘t been a story set in Nevada. 🤣 #letstraveljuly
so-soAlthough I love Nevada Barr's Ranger Anna Pigeon series, this one was a "meh" for me. The story was focused on other characters and did not focus on the national park it was based in.
Any fellow Litsy peeps in love with the 'By the Book' podcast with Kristin Meinzer and Jolenta Greenburg?
They read a popular self-help book and follow the advice in said book for 2 whole weeks. Then they describe their experiences, discuss the pros and cons, and weigh in on whether or not they would recommend the book to others.
I'm slightly addicted to them..I listened to all 3 seasons in a week!
so-soThis was my first Anna Pigeon book and I thought it was alright but wasn‘t blown away. It was set in Acadia National Park and I was hoping there would be more background on the setting than there was. It was also a little more violent than I was expecting. I may try again though with an earlier book in the series as I like the premise of a mystery series starring a National Park Ranger. As a side note, Barbara Rosenblat was a great narrator.
pickWhat an interesting and captivating book! I actually really enjoyed all the different perspectives, and I thought it added a lot to this book! For me the pacing was good, I didn't feel like there was ever a time where the plot lagged, which was very enjoyable. Overall a good mystery / thriller book.
4/5 ⭐
