So this was fun but life got in the way of reading 🙀 but I ended up with some points.

Classic “mystery” for the first grade set. Adorable, confident investigator, Nate. Will he find the picture of the dog in time? Recommend for 6-8. #5stars #kidlit #mystery #childinvestigator #TeamSlaughter #Scarathalon2021

Binge watched this 6 episode UK-set thriller on Acorn TV via Amazon Fri-Sun. Cush Jumbo is always good. #thriller #Scarathalon2021 #TeamSlaughter #tvshows

Good cozy that is cute without being too cutesy. Likable fish-out-of-water protagonist, pretty setting, secrets & murder. Fun listen. Good counterpoint to watching the very dark Squid Game! Met the author once & she seemed very nice. #mystery #audiobooks #TeamSlaughter #Scarathalon2021

Clwojick His one sounds fun! I‘ll have to check out the author 2y

This was actually quite fun. I enjoyed the main character and found her potential love interest to be quite endearing. I wish the Halloween aspects were a little more pronounced, but it was still a fun, fluffy read anyway.
Total points for week two-615 for #teamslaughter bringing me to 5,603 points so far! #bookspinbingo #outstandingoctober #scarathalon2021 #screamathon @TheAromaofBooks @Clwojick @4thhouseontheleft

Nope. Not for me. Four chapters in (30-ish pages) and I‘m already not a fan of the main character. She already seems mean to her coworkers and thinks of them as beneath her, plus the writing is kind of clunky. Too many good books out there to waste time on this one when I can clearly tell that I‘m not going to be a fan. #bookspinbingo #scarathalon2021 #screamathon @TheAromaofBooks @Clwojick @4thhouseontheleft

RamsFan1963 I'm currently reading this too. I agree to an extent, and I might end up bailing also. This is my first cozy mystery so I'm going to try and stick it out. 2y
RainyDayReading @RamsFan1963 I hope you wind up enjoying it if you do stick it out! The MC just rubbed me the wrong way way too early into the story. If you do bail, I hope you try another cozy. There‘s a lot of good ones out there! 2y
TheAromaofBooks The cozy mystery genre is kind of like romance - there are just soooooooo many and some of them are delightful and others I can't understand why someone wrote this AND published it?! 😂 Hopefully you find something better for your next read!!! 2y

Damn. Netflix is billing Squid Game as a “thriller.” And as a former resident of Korea, I wanted to check it out. It‘s dark fantasy or horror-a bloody, twisted Hunger Games. The stark difference between the haves and haves-nots is played out with brutal precision. Not for the faint of heart. #thriller #horror #KoreanTV #TeamSlaughter #Scarathalon2021

Clwojick It was oddly addicting, considering how bad the voiceovers were. Lol 2y

Halloween party for 16 kiddos fried my brain this weekend, but did OK during the week. More pages next time. #TeamSlaughter #Scarathalon2021 #murder #audiobooks #books #scarymovies

Clwojick 16 kids! Holy man, I could only imagine. I had 6 girlfriends over for my Clue party and it still took me two days to clean up 😅 2y
SomedayAlmost Lol. “Clean” is relative, and outdoor parties are both COVID safer and less dirty. Kinda. 😉 (edited) 2y

A perfect step down from IT? Midsomer Murders. They‘re running out of plots after 20 years on TV, but this particular episode, The Scarecrow Murders, was pretty good. #mystery #murder #Scarathalon2021 #TeamSlaughter
