Listening to this one while I start holiday baking. I feel like I‘m missing something, so I keep checking the book for the pictures.

I‘m continuing to read books from the bottom of my TBR and so, up next, one I don‘t even remember acquiring.
How cute is this blind date with a book display? The store includes bookmarks and stickers with each wrapped book. Adorable!
Time to find out what all the hype is about.
A sentient spider plant?!? Count me in!

“1. The criminal must be someone mentioned in the early part of the story, but must not be anyone who thoughts the reader has been allowed to follow.”
Rule one of the commandments of detective fiction, which the author recommends the reader reference throughout the story.
Up next, based on the kooky character list on the back cover, I‘m going to like this one.
Perhaps he‘ll die this time.

Next up, a snarky murder mystery.
Current read - I thought this was the story of the Panama Canal, but it‘s really about the different types of people involved in the project.
Reading from the very bottom of my tbr pile. No idea how I even acquired this one.

It‘s overcast and chilly here, which is all the excuse I need to stay inside and start this one.
It‘s been a long time since I‘ve read Sanderson, so I‘m giving this stand alone one a try.
Back then, Beatrix liked to sit next to Mr. G when he rowed them all to the mainland.

Last chapter…..I‘m not going to cry, I‘m not going to cry, I‘m not going to….sniffle.
If Lucas is doing something, I have to be doing it, too, but better.

My plans for this rainy night.
I‘m a few chapters into this book and just realized the main character is based on a real person.
There was never any doubt in her mind, even after all these dust-streaked mortal years, that Dacre would one day come for her.

Finally starting this one.
The foot would not fit in my briefcase, so I wrapped it in cloth and wrestled it into an old knapsack I sometimes carry with me on expeditions.

No idea what I‘m getting into with this book, but I like the dedication.
Ugh, so close!! I‘m using the same goal in 2024.
I finally made it to the top of the library hold list for this one. 48 hours long and 21 day loan, eek!
Thank you @JessieKB !! I‘ve been eyeing this book for ages and I‘m so excited to have it. Time to ignore the holiday stuff to read and snack on chocolate. Thanks again and happy holidays!
@MaleficentBookDragon #jolabokaflod is the best swap!
@julieclair Thank you so much for this great #jolabokaflod package. The wrapping was beautiful! I‘m excited for this book and all the chocolates.
Happy holidays!
@MaleficentBookDragon thanks for a great swap.
Two #jolabokaflod packages headed to the post office!
@MaleficentBookDragon packages scheduled to arrive Tuesday
Listening to this one while running errands and this quiet book feels like the perfect counterpoint to all the holiday craziness.
Not sure starting out the week with a sad-ish book is a good idea, but here goes.
Up next, this seems like a good way to kick off holiday reads.
Next up, another book I bought the week i it came out and never started.
I re-read the book last month in anticipation of this, now let‘s see how closely the musical will follow.
@Gissy I love it! I‘ve only read one book by this author and I‘m excited to give these both a try. Thank you so much for all the extras! The book sleeve is perfect and I can‘t wait to start snacking.
Happy Halloween!

Stay tuned for the “after” pictures.
@MaleficentBookDragon
Thanks so much @BookNAround ! This #HauntedHollowSwap package is amazing and I feel so spoiled! I can‘t wait to dive into the books and I think my favorite is the little ghost in a jar. It‘s the cutest thing ever! With the tote bag and the book sleeve and books I‘m totally in the season.
Thanks so much and Happy Halloween!
@wanderinglynn Thanks so much for coordinating a great swap.
