This was a reread for me, and I forgot how much I enjoyed this when I read it several years ago—I reread it for my IRL book club, and the other members were not as enthusiastic. Still a pick for me!

Hopefully this propels me to continue with the series. #LitsyAToZ #LetterH #52BookClub25 #HasAnEpigraph

KathyWheeler I really enjoyed this series until the last few books. 1mo

Librarybelle @KathyWheeler Sometimes series go on for way too long. 1mo

KathyWheeler @Librarybelle you‘re right. For me it just got tiring hearing her fawn over Derek all the time. 1mo

Librarybelle @KathyWheeler I had to sit the Hannah Swenson series by Joanne Fluke to the side…it just got so repetitive and absurd for me. Though, the recipes sounded delicious! 1mo

so-so

This was a pretty good mystery, right up until the end. I just didn‘t buy the way it wrapped up, with the guilty seeming to have little motive and some things never really explained. The “Scottish-isms” felt forced and awkward rather than charming. But the characters were somewhat engaging and the setting was beautiful. Probably won‘t read another in the series tho.

The husband picked this out for me by his own self, so I shall love it no matter what it‘s like. But it looks cute and cozy and just the thing for a chilly winter holiday🙂

The Paper Caper | Kate Carlisle

I‘m really excited for The Paper Caper and eager to get Woman of Light off my shelf — either by reading or DNF‘ing! #bookspin

rockpools Good luck! A very important question: Is it you that I‘m friends with on DuoLingo? (I know it was a Litsy Rachel - just can‘t remember their Litsy name!) If it is you, I‘d love to know how come you‘re learning Scottish Gaelic. (If not, apologies for weird random questions!) 14mo

mrsmarch @rockpools LoL, that‘s meeeee! As for how come — I was bored with burnishing my Italian and keeping my French fresh, so I wanted a non Romance language. I figured the native language of my ancestors was a good place to start. 14mo

rockpools Honestly, I‘m a disaster at answering people (& social media generally) these days. Sorry! But so pleased I‘ve matched the mystery Duo person to a real Rachel 😊. That is so cool. I just started back again with Duo (as you may have gathered) and started Gaelic for the first time (before I took a peek to see what you were learning). Love it!My niece (age 4) has just started Gaelic-speaking nursery, so she‘s teaching me. Need all the help I can get! 13mo

mrsmarch @rockpools I‘m sure my pronunciation is a nightmare, but the chances of me ever being in a place where I need spoken Gaelic are infinitely small. Writing/reading it suffice for me. I‘m actually keenly surprised how much I feel it shares with *French*. The Auld Alliance with France makes so much sense. Word order and some vocab overlap. Eaglais/église anyone? (edited) 13mo

Finishing up my Christmas Stack.

I love books and Scotland, you would think I would love this book. But it was incredibly inane. Plus I know about First Footing, the way it's used here is silly. You're going to let someone disrupt your wedding because you like to keep the old traditions? And the caviler attitude of 'we'll just move the wedding'.

But hey, managed to get pretty much every Scottish stereotype in.

Crinoline_Laphroaig I feel like I've been very snarky lately about what I'm reading. 1y

LeahBergen I read one book in this series and it irritated me to no end. 😆 1y

Crinoline_Laphroaig @LeahBergen I'm glad to know it was just me! 1y

Cute and festive mystery. My only real complaint is that the narrator is different from the last one of these I read, and while she does a fine job, it was a little jarring, the difference in the secondary characters particularly.
