TheBookHippie I answered wrong for Thanksgiving I was thinking when it became federal policy 🤣🫣😵‍💫🤷🏻‍♀️ 1mo
dabbe @TheBookHippie @GingerAntics And I just stupidly thought it was the 3rd Thursday, not the 4th. #doh 🤦🏼‍♀️ 1mo
dabbe @GingerAntics ♥️🍁🧡 1mo
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie oh yeah, that wasn‘t that clear. When did it become a holiday. Almost felt like a trick question in a sense. 1mo
GingerAntics @dabbe I‘m pretty sure it used to me the 3rd Thursday. I don‘t know why I say that, but I swear I heard it was changed and that‘s why people justify Christmas songs before Thanksgiving now. 1mo

The Valley of Fear | Arthur Conan Doyle
post image

#NoPlaceLikeHolmes @Cuilin
#TheValleyOfFear

Part 2 in the last SH novel in the canon! A lot like his 1st one A STUDY IN SCARLET, perhaps? 🧐

Thoughts, Sherlockians?

Librarybelle It does resemble The Study in Scarlet with the backstory related to the American West. As I said in my review, I‘m not the biggest fan of Conan Doyle removing the story from the land of Holmes. I guess I like purely Holmes‘ story, even though this one did have a big twist. 10mo
eeclayton I enjoyed part 1 way more than part 2. 10mo
Cuilin @eeclayton same. 10mo

dabbe @Librarybelle @eeclayton @Cuilin I think most of us thought the same in A STUDY IN SCARLET. Doyle then writes two fabulous novels, A SIGN OF FOUR and (IMHO) his magnum opus THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES, and then he reverts back to the same formula as his first novel, which was by far not his best. I just don't know why he did it again! 10mo
CatLass007 He probably was tired of writing about Sherlock Holmes. He already killed him off once. So he just follows the formula. It‘s the formula that got him started. The triangle and circle are reminiscent of Masonic symbols. I guess the introduction by Stephen Fry spoiled thanks for me in a certain way because I knew that the Free Men were based on the Freemasons. I also knew that there was going to be some involvement from the Pinkertons or a (cont)⬇️ 10mo
CatLass007 similar fictional agency. Did you know that many of the Founding Fathers were Freemasons? The circle and the triangle with the all-seeing eye in the center appears on the dollar bill. 10mo
dabbe @CatLass007 I did! I didn't look at the dollar bill, though. Thanks for the info on that! And yet Doyle still wrote quite a few short stories after this one. Money and fame count, too, I guess. 🤣 10mo
CatLass007 £££ 10mo
dabbe @CatLass007 Gotcha! #doh 🤩🤣🤩 10mo
CatLass007 I almost put dollar signs but then I realized…. 10mo
AnneCecilie I liked this one. More than A Study in Scarlet. Maybe I have gotten used to Doyle‘s writing style? The mention of Moriarty at the beginning of part one had me intrigued, and the twist in part 2. I did not see that coming (edited) 10mo
dabbe @AnneCecilie The twist got me twice! I can't believe I didn't remember it, having read it before! 🤦🏼‍♀️ 10mo
AnneCecilie It‘s not possible to remember every twist of every book we read. Some just leaves more of an impression than others 10mo
dabbe @AnneCecilie 🎯! 10mo

If you could have a sequel to any stand-alone book which would it be?

My answer: Peter Pan

Soubhiville Hmmmm. The Starless Sea. 2y
suvata @Soubhiville Good one 2y
dabbe I'd want another adventure of HUCKLEBERRY FINN. 🤩 2y

vivastory @Soubhiville Great choice! 2y
suvata @dabbe Finn is amazing 2y
dabbe @vivastory #doh! I should have thought of that since I just voted for it for the #CampLitsy24 read! 🤩😂😘 2y
dabbe @suvata Ain't nobohdy gonna civilize Huck! 🤩😂😘 2y
vivastory I have 3 answers, all mystery/ thrillers: I'd love another book by JoAnn Chaney featuring her detectives that were featured in “What You Don't Know.“ I read this 7 years ago & still think about it from time to time. I would also like a follow-up to SA Cosby's “Blacktop Wasteland.“ This remains my favorite of his & I know that he has mentioned in passing returning to the characters in the future. Finally, I would like a sequel to David Heska (CONT) 2y
vivastory Wanbil Weiden's “Winter Counts.“ He has said that he is working on it, but it has been a few years since he has provided an update. 2y
suvata @vivastory well, maybe you will get lucky with 2y
vivastory @suvata Of the three that I listed it does seem to be the most likely 2y
Ruthiella Well…maybe GRRM could finish the Game of Thrones series? 😆 2y
RaeLovesToRead I can think of more sequels that shouldn't have been attempted 🤣🤣 2y
RaeLovesToRead @Ruthiella I hope one day this happens! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 one of my fave series' ever 2y

Charlemagne | Johannes Fried
post image
Mehso-so

My penpals know my struggle with this audiobook. It is likely the most boring book I‘ve ever finished. However, it was great at one important thing: putting me to sleep! The author would have benefited from a more skillful editor to reduce repetition. I felt like I was in an eternal circle of hell hearing the same anecdotes about Charlemagne for 30 hours. Read at your own peril! 👑

Suet624 Oh my! 2y
dabbe When I first quickly glanced at who read it from your pic, I just saw JAMES CAMERON. I then thought to myself, “Isn't that the TERMINATOR/TITANIC director? Wow! He was boring!“ Then I saw the name STEWART. #doh You also deserve the #perseverenceaward 💚💙💚 2y
Ruthiella At least you got your beauty sleep 😴😄 2y
MemoirsForMe Another cure for insomnia. Good to know! 😉😬🥱 2y
