#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

My #HyggeHour tonite is with Encyclopedia Brown for #EBBR & if I have some time, I‘ll read more in one of my other books. Drinking tea & having chocolate. 🍫

Mood is sleepy & not ready for another busy work week of meetings & 2 more Hilo trips. 🥱😵‍💫😴

AllDebooks ❤️ I hope you have a good week x 1w

Another set of quick mysteries complete with resolutions at the end. It‘s fun to match wits with Encyclopedia Brown. I got about half of these easily, but there were a couple I only half-figured out, and three that stumped me. Definitely haven‘t aged well - the Indian trials were cringey and Charlie‘s teeth collection still makes me queasy. #ebbr

Ruthiella Yes, I thought aspects of this hadn‘t aged well either. 1w

Checking in with my #EBBR pals! I was bested in three cases. I‘ll put in under a spoiler comment my issue with one particular.

Fun fact: we find that Encyclopedia lives in a state with a coastline! I‘m imagining Oregon.

I am enjoying the goofy humor, like:

“I‘ve seen a match box and a boardwalk, but I‘ve never had to solve a pillowcase,” said Encyclopedia thoughtfully. 😂

“He‘s like a set of false teeth, always trying to get even” 🤣

Ruthiella In “The Case of the Stolen Diamonds “ would small glass beads really break that easily? 🤔 I think not?

TheAromaofBooks These are a lot of fun, but there were a couple where I found myself looking slightly askance at the solution 😂 1w
Ruthiella @TheAromaofBooks Yes, me too! 😂 But a ten year old would not notice, probably. 1w

Here‘s my March recap. It was a great reading month & I finished 23 books! (Including 5 audiobooks, 19 fiction, 4 NF, many genres, several children‘s & classics)

I read for #SundayBuddyRead #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #EBBR #AuthorAMonth #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #SheSaid #RiseUpReads #JaneAustenThenAndNow #BookedInTime #FoodAndLit #Roll100 #ThematicCozies #FictionalTraveler #MonthlyNonFiction #SeriesLove2025 & #AuldLangSpine #SeriesLove2025 ⬇️

DebinHawaii …My favorites of the month were The Frozen River, Nettle and Bone, Kills Well With Others, Not That Bad, All Systems Read & Pride and Prejudice (reread for the zillionth time) & The Great Gatsby (hadn‘t read since high school) was a surprise winner. Lots of series books too—including both the 1940 & 1976 versions of our monthly Nancy Drew title. (edited) 2w

Read4life @CBee I‘m banged up and really sore. Thankfully (😕) when I landed it was my shoulder blades/upper back that hit the object on the ground and not my neck or head. The wrists and knees are sore but nothing is broken. Thank you for asking. 💙💙💙 2w

dabbe @Read4life As my doctor so lovingly told me once: “Denise, your body is a house. And as it ages, it starts to creak and groan more and more. That's your body's way of celebrating the fact that you're still alive.“

Thanks, Doc C! Hang in there, m'dear! 😍💙🤗

Read4life @dabbe I just told my family that my body is a house. Brian asked if I meant it‘s a temple. I said no…a house. My son then asked if I hit my head when I fell. 😂 2w
dabbe @Read4life Just snorted my drink out of my nose. 🤩🤣😍 2w

Some of the cases stumped me and one I partially figured out.
#EBBR

Ruthiella Looking forward to the challenge! 3w
DGRachel I love that you tracked each case! 3w
Sace @DGRachel I want to keep a record in my reading journal but it‘s not like these books inspire a lot of introspection and commentary 🤣 3w

Shouldn‘t Encyclopedia know that chocolate isn‘t good for dogs? #EBBR

Ruthiella I had a lab/retriever mix who ate chocolate, chicken bones, you name it. Didn‘t faze him! 😅🐶❤️ 3w
Sace @Ruthiella Hopefully this dog will be ok. 😉 3w
