Welcome to Litsy!

My choice for the May #ThematicCozies theme of #Flowers/Plants is #6 in the Darling Dahlias series, by Susan Wittig Albert. I have read several others in this series and enjoyed them.

Everything I like in a cozy mystery. Amateur female sleuth, police detective boyfriend, likable supporting characters, small town setting, and a mystery that I can‘t figure out. I‘ll read more of this series. 4⭐️

This was my April pick for #ThematicCozies #Sport, and also my #BookSpin #DoubleSpin

I struggled a bit with the April #Sport prompt for #ThematicCozies, as I‘m not a “sporty” person. But I‘m looking forward to reading this one. In addition to being a runner, the main character also owns a book store. 😉

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🙂

Big Little Spies is the 7th book in the Paws and Claws Cozy Mystery Series. I loved being back in Wagtail. I enjoyed visiting Trixie and Twinklefoots. I think you should probably read these books in order. That way, you have the background of the town and main characters. It may be confusing to you if you don't start with book one, which is: Murdered, She Barked.

😊Happy Reading 😊

The Blackmoore sisters are great characters and I love the way they go against the shady sheriff. Fun and quick reads. I‘ll definitely be continuing this series.

40 years ago Wil Threadgill left his band for Hollywood where he became a successful film music composer. On his return to Athena to teach a course at the local university, his former bandmates start dying. He asks Charlie and Diesel for help.

I realised who the murderer was on their first appearance even if I didn't know who they were or what the motivation was. Great fun.
