I've unfortunately already bailed on my #SeasonalCozies pick for May, so I might try to find another cozy to replace it this month. Suggestions welcome!

Such a crazy week! I‘m still putting together my May TBR but here is my April recap. Surprisingly, I finished 18 books this month. The fact that several were short novellas or children‘s books helped.😉

I took part in #SundayBuddyRead #JaneAdjacent #ChildrensClassicRead2024 NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #SheSaid #TravelingStars2024 & #SeasonalCozies I also finished all 3 of my #Roll100 books & read several #SeriesLove2024 books & one from my ⬇️

DebinHawaii #AuldLangSpine list & knocked out a couple of challenge prompts. While I didn‘t get around to a couple of books/challenges I wanted to, I feel great about the month. I enjoyed most of what I read but standouts were Zorrie, The Second, Saving Mr. Rochester, A First Time for Everything & the final 2 1/2 books in The Naturals series. 9h
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 9h
TheSpineView Fantastic! 8h

Finished yesterday for #SeasonalCozies I am afraid this just wasn‘t a good book. It‘s a risk I take when I go for first in series, cheap or free (this was a Kindle Unlimited title) but it‘s disappointing nonetheless. I went between wanting to shake & throat punch the MC who was kind of an idiot. Then there was the dialogue which was not even close to natural. I highlighted a part where the⬇️

DebinHawaii … the male love interest needlessly mansplained dry ice to the MC but then I returned the book without writing it down. Just bad. I won‘t be reading the next one. There‘s better gardening cozies out there!

For April's #SeasonalCozies @julieclair I went back to Hygge Hideaway Book 4. It was kind of repetitive. Book 5 is set in summer so I searched my Audible a discovered Death in English Cottage. I've read the 1st in Series awhile back. Features Location Scout for Jane Austen Movie. It's specifically set in Spring. 🥀

julieclair It seems like the Hygge Hideaway books have not lived up to the promise of their lovely covers. 🫤 But a cozy based on location scouting for a Jane Austen movie? That sounds fabulous! Hope you enjoy! 2d
Crinoline_Laphroaig @julieclair at least they are short. You can read them in an hour. 😄 2d
julieclair 😂 I love your positivity! 2d

My picks for #seasonalcozies #April #May

Reading April‘s pick now. #readyourkindle

Many thanks to @Read4life & @PathfinderNicole for these suggestions!

Read4life I‘m reading April‘s now, too. Please let me know what you think. 5d
emz711 Would love to get in on this hashtag! 5d
julieclair @emz711 We‘d love to have you join our happy group! I‘ll add you to the tag list! Each month, we each pick cozy mystery to read that is set in that month/season, or takes place around a holiday in that month. Then we post about it using the #SeasonalCozies hashtag. Very low key. There is also a StoryGraph challenge that some of us use to track our reading: https://app.thestorygraph.com/reading_challenges/eea8f8fe-5afb-495b-8c57-9c1c5be... 5d
kspenmoll @Read4life I am not very far with the book but plan to read lots tonight. 3d
emz711 @julieclair thanks! Sounds fun 3d

OK, I think this will be my May pick for #SeasonalCozies as it is set during Memorial Day. It also meets my criteria for being first in a series (Nantucket Candle Maker Mystery) & cheap/free (it‘s on Kindle Unlimited).

Still finishing up April‘s pick.

julieclair Oohhh… I need a Massachusetts book for #ReadTheUSA2024, and this looks fun! Added to my stack. 5d
