panFinished it, and read the sneak peek of the next book, and yup, it‘s definitely quit-the-series time. Lazy plot-manipulation, plummeting characterization, and one of my least-favorite ways to resolve a ~love triangle~. It‘s kind of a shame, because this was a really enjoyable series in the beginning, but now? Byeeeeee. ✌🏻 #booktownmysteries #handbookforhomicide #lornabarrett
Once I finish this, I‘m 99% sure I won‘t continue with the series. Tricia is a judgy bitch, and her obsession with food and gaining weight is obnoxious. Not to mention, the writing is just getting bad. Although I love Mr. Everett so much, there‘s not enough of him to make this worth it. 🤷🏻♀️ #booktownmysteries #lornabarrett #cozymystery #handbookforhomicide
pickLoved this sequel to “Count the Ways,” which picks up in 2010 and follows Eleanor and her family through 2024 —with mention of many of the historical events in America. (Trigger warnings if you don‘t want to relive several school shootings, the 2016 election, the pandemic, George Floyd‘s murder or the Jan. 6 insurrection of the Capitol, for example.) These characters feel real to me now and I will miss them.

Just downloaded this one from Hoopla —the sequel to “Count the Ways.” I‘d forgotten that Eleanor‘s oldest son is transgender! So I‘m jumping in and participating in #transrightsreadathon. ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
