Cain's Jawbone | Edward Powys Powys Mathers

Birthday was spent pretty low key. I took the day off work and bummed around collecting birthday freebies. I had joked yesterday that I was going to be listening to the Company cast album all day since it was my 35th bday 😜 (for non theater geeks the musical centers around the main character‘s 35th bday). I just so happened to find the original Broadway recording on Vinyl. Absolutely bonkers! 🤯 ⬇️

MatchlessMarie I also got this cool box to organize my #BookSpinBingo tiles. I wish I had thought of this sooner. And I picked up a copy of the tagged book because I hate myself, jk 😂 It will probably end up being a project for 2024. It will probably be fun to attempt to solve anyway. More birthday shenanigans will be happening this weekend with my mom and sister. Thanks to everyone who participated in #35by35 with me 😘 📖 5mo

Was at Whole Foods the other day, and ran across this book. Although I won't be able to tackle this puzzle for awhile, I did notice that there is a “for fun“ competition that someone on here might find interesting to know about.

There's not much time left to get yourself a copy & enter, yet I figured I'd share anyway. I've noticed some fast readers here on Litsy, I'm a sluggish reader and wouldn't make the deadline even if I began now.

Picked this one up on a whim. Intrigued by the concept but a bit daunted at the undertaking of the challenge.

Tamra Sounds fun! 13mo

When you snap a book picture that kinda fits the words of the page...here's my morning reading with a hatched clutch of eggs 😉

Chrissyreadit I have to confess- I‘d have a hard time reading because I would want to look at all the stacks and explore and just feel satisfied to be surrounded by that space! 2y

Mitch @Chrissyreadit 🤣🤣🤣I have to sit in an alcove if terribly boring books if I want to concentrate! There‘s some really fab sections that would mean just browsing for days! 🤣🤣 2y

I preordered this puzzle mistery book from 1934, it should arrive on Tuesday!
I can't wait to try my best to solve the mistery... do you know about it?

Chrissyreadit It‘s on my TBR- I am definitely interested in what you think. 2y

Ast_Arslan @Chrissyreadit first I will rearrange all the pages and then I will try to figure it out, I guess 🤣 2y

Chrissyreadit @wanderinglynn have you seen this book? 2y

I have the boxed unbound pages edition, saving having to cut up the pages. Can‘t make a dent, so heads and tails! The one winner took 4 months to solve; hope to try to make another start over the holidays❣️ https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/nov/27/cains-jawbone-how-novels-puzzling-...

DrexEdit Wow! Fascinating! Good luck with the puzzle solving! 🍀🧩 2y

I read about this, bought it, opened up the box of unbound pages-need to put into order, then figure out the right solution out of many to solve the murder! Intimidating yet entrancing, will have to set a start date and get a new notebook!

This is a hard one! Which two pills would you take and what book would you reread like it was the first time, which character would you revive/love/bring to life/change bodies with, and/or which fictional world would you explore/inhabit? 🤔💊🕵🏻‍♀️🌍
