I‘m enjoying the second whimsical rom com in the Only Magic in the Building series. I‘m reading a story a day in House Gone Quiet. I plan to start Nancy Drew 19 for the BR today. #weekendreads

I‘m still reading The Trees (so good) by this author but getting close to the end so I‘ve checked out two more of his books from Libby. I may like Trees better than James, which I read last year. What an author!! #authoramonth @Soubhiville
Imagine receiving this warning from your mother before heading off to school each day. #Rwanda #foodandlit @Catsandbooks
The mayor told us not to wear clothes anymore.
House Gone Quiet is a short story collection. I bought it on Indie Bookstore Day and am really enjoying it. I‘m reading the story titled Decency Rule today. #FirstLineFridays
After a frustrating day, I'm going to follow Camille's lead (although I'm going to try to finish one story from the tagged before I lose consciousness)(and I likely won't fall asleep perched on the back of the sofa).
Some more progress on #offmyshelf
(One of the) Shortest book(s) on my tbr: Third Class Superhero (no idea if it's actually the shortest, would rather read than check page counts! It's under 200 pgs so close enough)
Self/indie pub'd: The Steel Discord by Ryan Howse (ebook but counting it cause I'm not sure how much indie stuff I have in print, I tend to have more in ebook)

pickLike with all short story books, the review is a bit of a mix. I didn't enjoy The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, I loved Head and Shoulders; The Cut-Glass Bowl and most of all Bernice Bobs Her Hair, the ending was my favourite part. I hated O Russet Witch!... Overall a good collection and being written by F. Scott Fitzgerald you can always find moments of absolute brilliance.
pickAs usual with these anthologies, this was more than the sum of its parts -- it's fascinating to get a survey across the “classic“ period for mysteries from different authors and perspectives. There were some fun stories in there, but a certain amount of meh too, as always.
1. Sitting up. But, I do read in bed a while before falling asleep.
2. The tagged book. Great short #mystery stories, all set on trains.
