Today‘s haiku was inspired by my Friday, mid-morning hangout at the coffee shop reading my ARC of a new book of a favorite series, not out until February. It was quiet, slow & pretty perfect.
A Perfect Friday
Hot coffee, soft bread,
Long-awaited series book,
Nothing else needed.
pickThis devilish locked room mystery pulls out so many tricks and tropes that I associate with the golden age. But it predates the golden age!
I found it much less fusty than Sherlock Holmes and it has certainly aged better.
Despite containing so many classic elements, I imagine this was breathtakingly original in its day. I really enjoyed the ride.
I hope to discover more of the canons next year!
Recommended!

I'm trying to get caught up on a bit of Litsy stuff as I'm on vacation at the end of the year, and this sounds so fun! #12booksof2025 @TheEllieMo
Sssh this is an inner monologue 🤣🤣
My little sissy got it for me and four other books from Freida McFadden
pickI had to go ahead and finish this one ahead of schedule when my library audio was about to auto return. It was a completely wild and entertaining ride that frequently made it hard to only listen to a chapter or so at a time. I am intrigued by this as the beginning of a series that goes on to focus on Campion, but I‘m not sure I‘ll make time to continue it.

Some great books in February too, but this non-fiction one was an unexpected favorite. I found myself totally caught up in it. 🪶
