Bingo: Classics Whiplash, My Dear Watson

A Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

August 5, 2019 by sistercoyote Leave a Comment

I read this for the first time a few years back*, in between books of “The Men who Hate Women”. Also, oddly enough, I finished it while we were on our way to This is the Place.

City of Mystery Book 5

December 31, 2015 by Walking Widdershins Leave a Comment

This is the fifth book in the City of Mystery series – not sure if any of you have read them, but if you like mystery stories, it’s definitely a good series to try. Especially if you like historical mysteries, where people can’t just check on each other using cell phones and whatnot.

    As a long-time nonprofit professional, I'm intrigued at the mixing of fantasy and fundraising. Plus, what a gorgeous cover!

    on What if Cinderella was a handsome Jewish man and the prince was a determined and beautiful heiress?
    I remember enjoying this one. And you’ve reminded me that I have an arc for the third book.

    I haven’t read this one but I got sucked into vampires early, probably around 2nd grade with a kids series...
