Murder at Holly House: A dazzling Christmas murder mystery from the bestselling author of the DCI Daley series | Denzil Meyrick

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Today‘s haiku is inspired by taking time from errands & crowds (Ack, people!! 😱) to sip on a holiday latte & read a little at the Barnes & Noble Cafe. The tagged book is the $5 December special. I think it will be fun to read next month. (Yes, may have purchased a couple of magazines & a blanket too…)🤷🏻‍♀️

Stop, Drop & Read

Murder at Holly House: A dazzling Christmas murder mystery from the bestselling author of the DCI Daley series | Denzil Meyrick

Yesterday, I went to @barnesandnoble. The Christmas things are out and I picked up this ornament and tree topper. Since my move and having a very small apartment, my Christmas things will stay with my sons so this will be my Christmas tree this year.

I also picked up the five dollar cafe book.

TheBookHippie The tree is so cute! 1w

Graciouswarriorlibrarian @TheBookHippie It truly is! I couldn‘t resist it! 1w

Gissy Love them! 😍 1w

Will Raven's wife is 8 months' pregnant. Spiritualism and mesmerism come to Edinburgh. And a foot is found in a cupboard in Surgeons' Hall. But whose?

An enjoyable mystery and a great picture of mid-19th century Edinburgh. An exciting finish.

The smell of oil was all around him, sharp and yet cloying. He had splashed it about the stage until the can was empty, taking care to make sure its grim centrepiece in particular was thoroughly doused.

*sorry for the shitty camera skills*

It's a foggy morning here in upstate NY. Great day to curl up and listen to a murder mystery which is my current read.

BkClubCare I like the effect on that fog 🌫️ 2mo

AkashaVampie @BkClubCare I took it through my window screen. If I was smarter I'd either go outside or find a window that didn't have a screen and take the pic. 2mo

The Labyrinth House Murders | Yukito Ayatsuji

Most of my recent manual labour involves cleaning up my parents‘ horrifically messy basement. (It‘s already so much neater, yet a casual observer might think I‘d done nothing.) Today I dug out Jacob, their turtle. He used to have his own bedroom (ie, he lived on the bed in their spare room), which led many, many people to think I had a brother named Jacob.

I also listened to all of another enjoyable Japanese mystery from the 1980s. #audiocleaning

willaful Awww! My daughter used to have a large turtle lovey. We named it Harry after the picture book “Hi Harry.“

Sorry you're having to deal with such a hard chore. It's so frustrating when you can't even see the fruits of your labor! 2mo

Ruthiella A stranger may not see the effort, but you know it‘s there. Good job! 👏👏👏 2mo

xicanti @willaful @Ruthiella at least the work gives me lots of time to listen to audiobooks. Once it‘s done, the hard part‘ll be keeping my father from piling things up in every open space. 2mo

Just finished this. Loved it. I'll read her other Sherlock Holmes novels, of which there are at least two more.
