Okay, so no part of this paragraph makes any sense. She has velvet in her ears? I tried looking up the original story… IT DOES NOT EXIST! Is she just making this up (poorly) as she goes? That certainly explains a lot.

Wait, these are retellings? So she‘s using other cultures‘ stories from her own perspective? Gods help me. She is losing me FAST! Clearly she can‘t fathom that anyone would be welcoming the dark. Oh no. That‘s not her perspective so it doesn‘t exist here. 🙄

Does she know what the word dalliance means, because this sentence suggests that she either does NOT or has no respect for the field of anthropology. Neither looks good. Then again, she‘s starting paragraphs (and by extension sentences with the word “and,” so I may have to skip her horrible introduction all together.

I could never remember the actual holiday on December 25th, but I knew it wasn‘t Saturnalia. Sheldon Cooper is wrong more than he is right, I swear. It makes him even more insufferable when you know just how often he is wrong. If he‘s so smart, shouldn‘t he know he is wrong and, you know, NOT be wrong?

I actually bought this last year, but the beginning of the end of my job was starting and I was just too tired to read much, so I never read it. It feels like this is a good time to take this for a spin.

This book certainly gives one things to think about and starts conversations; however, it leaves some questions. Perhaps this is meant as a simple introduction - which it did, sort of - but there is definitely more to be covered and answers to be had that are not found in this book.

This book has become very… necessary… in recent weeks. There has been a lot of talk about us reading this. We talked about ending our year with Free Will. It may be a good plan to start our year with this. We could start the first weekend of January (1/5/25). That would give everyone time to get their hands on a copy, as some of us are having a moment trying to get our hands on one. Thoughts? Prayers? Anyone you‘d like to smack upside the head?

I think I accidentally read/listened to this week‘s chapter last week, but I need to double check for sure. How is everyone doing so far this week?

Sorry guys! I‘m sucking at life right now. I will post later today. I need anything to distract me from the dramatic wait to find it if I need to have my tubes tied and start putting in applications for political asylum.

This is a much better book than the second one. The mystery was compelling. There were multiple possible murders, and the actual murder was not revealed until the end. It was in no way connected to the first two books in the series, but still worth a read.
#AngelaPepper #DancingWithAGhost #RestlessSpiritsGhostMysteries

This was nowhere near as good as the first one. It was in no way related to the first book either. Then it just sort of ended. It took me weeks to pick up the story again. I was kind of avoiding it, honestly. I‘m not sure I even want to listen to the next one.
#AngelaPepper #DateWithAGhost #RestlessSpiritsGhostMysteries

I loved the mystery. I loved that there were so many potential killers and the actual murderer was only revealed at the end. This is so different from The Paranormal Mysteries series, but it was so good! I can‘t wait to read more by this author.
#AngelaPepper #InterviewWithAGhost #RestlessSpiritsGhostMysteries

I felt like the point he made about reading was perfect for us.

Sorry, guys. I had these ready to go on my phone, then I fell asleep for the rest of the weekend. I hope everyone‘s Monday is going well.

I know I said I was going to explain back in August. Time has really flown, but since it‘s October, this feels like a good time to finally put this out there. On 7/8, my mother was so weak, that she fell outside of our apartment on the sidewalk and I couldn‘t get her up, so we had to have an ambulance come get her. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Wasn‘t sure how to tag this, since it incorporates two different books.

Why yes! Yes I did!

The first book was so cute. This one is somehow (at least right now) completely different characters, and the story is entirely independent of the last one. I‘m not sure how I feel about this, yet.
#AngelaPepper #DateWithAGhost #RestlessSpiritsGhostMysteries

I loved the Eli Carter and the Ghost Hackers so much that I got this and part of another series by this author that was describes as Gilmore Girls crossed with ghost hunting. This one is a trilogy. The other has like 20+ books, so I thought I would start here.
#AngelaPepper #InterviewWithAGhost #RestlessSpiritsGhostMysteries

This one had a happy ending for everyone and DRAGONS! The team seems cohesive and like they are ready to take on the future together. I really wish there were more books in this series. I‘ve really fallen in love with these characters.
#AngelaPepper #TheDogWhoBarkedFire #audiobook #EliCarterAndTheGhostHackers #TheParanormalMysteries

This one has a fun twist and a confused ghost. Eli‘s girlfriend has since made friends with the ghost cat.
#AngelaPepper #TheGhostWhoWasntThere #EliCarterAndTheGhostHackers #TheParanormalMysteries

I read all three of these in one night. They were short and sweet.
A really cute, quick read. I love that there is a ghost cat that goes home with people who live boring lives to give them a little excitement in their lives.
#AngelaPepper #TheCatThatWentBumpInTheNight #EliCarterAndTheGhostHackers #TheParanormalMysteries

These are just flying by. I am really adoring them, though. They really go great with Animal Crossing!

#AngelaPepper #TheDogWhoBarkedFire #audiobook #EliCarterAndTheGhostHackers #TheParanormalMysteries

These are definitely short, but I am adoring these characters.
#AngelaPepper #TheGhostWhoWasntThere #audiobook #EliCarterAndTheGhostHackers #TheParanormalMysteries

I originally listened to this on the train from Dallas to Fargo. I only remember bits and pieces, but I liked it enough to get the rest of the trilogy. It seems like a good book for October, so here we go!
#AngelaPepper #TheCatWhoWentBumpInTheNight #audiobook #EliCarterAndTheGhostHackers #TheParanormalMysteries

Nothing kicks off a great book like a horrific murder of all but one member of a family on your birthday in 2007! I think I‘m going to need a stiff drink.

I loved this one so much! Just as much as Pet. This one is much more intense than Pet, because the Lucille in this novel could easily be the world we live in right now. It‘s dangerous. There is a rich, greedy, man corrupting the whole town, especially its government and the police, named Dian Theron. Police are killing civilians left and right.

So excited for this one!
