Everything I like in a cozy mystery. Amateur female sleuth, police detective boyfriend, likable supporting characters, small town setting, and a mystery that I can‘t figure out. I‘ll read more of this series. 4⭐️

This was my April pick for #ThematicCozies #Sport, and also my #BookSpin #DoubleSpin

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! Also - I got Indiscretion in the mail yesterday!!! Thank you so much for sending it back, I genuinely forgot you had it 😂 But in fairness I've had The Smile of a Stranger for so long that I literally don't remember who is supposed to get it next! 😂 😂 😂 6d

Tiger, Tiger: His Life, as It's Never Been Told Before | James Patterson

This biography of Tiger Woods was interesting. He is so private and I always wondered what his fellow PGA players thought about him. I enjoyed reading about the behind the scenes relationships with his caddies, Butch, Nike, and his family. You also see just how tough he is as he trained with Navy Seals and was interested in joining the military at one time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Killer Run | Lynn Cahoon

I struggled a bit with the April #Sport prompt for #ThematicCozies, as I‘m not a “sporty” person. But I‘m looking forward to reading this one. In addition to being a runner, the main character also owns a book store. 😉

What I Talk About When I Talk About Running | Haruki Murakami

“I‘ll be happy if running and I can grow old together.”
“My time, the rank I attain, my outward appearance—all of these are secondary. For a runner like me, what‘s really important is reaching the goal I set myself, under my own power. I give it everything I h, endure what needed enduring, and am able, in my own way, to be satisfied.”
Couldn‘t have expressed this better myself. Enjoyed his perspective about running & writing.

What I Talk About When I Talk About Running | Haruki Murakami

#CoverStories Day 16: #Running - as Iphigene wrote in her review: “This book isn‘t for everyone. It is first and foremost for people who know Murakami and who want to understand the man behind the fiction. It is also for runners. I have a feeling that runners could relate to his experiences—the challenges and pleasure in the sport. It is for loners, for those who seek to be understood.” Full review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-1Wc

Headshot: A Novel | Rita Bullwinkel

pick

It was interesting to get into the heads of the young female competitive boxers featured in this novel. I liked how the author conveyed the intensity of the moment while also shifting to times in the girls' pasts and futures.
