Happy Friday!
Today I'm once again participating in six blog hops. You can click on the host links below to find the blogs of others who are participating in each blog hop. If you're a blogger, feel free to join through the host links.
Question: Have you ever ventured out of your preferred genres? If so, were you surprised you enjoyed the book?
My response: Yes, I do occasionally venture out of the cozy mystery genre. It's rare when I do this and I choose books I'm interested in, so I'm not usually surprised if I enjoyed it.
Today's excerpts are from the paperback format of Dead, White, and Blue (Northwood Mystery 2), by Annie McEwen.
I always thought I was the type of person who knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life.
And here is an excerpt from page 56:
As soon as we were back on the sidewalk all my emotions started to bubble up at once. The tears stung, but I didn't want to cry out where everyone could see me.
Although I have a signed paperback copy of this book, I'm listening to the audiobook. As you might be able to tell from the title and cover, this is set around the 4th of July, so it's the perfect cozy mystery for this time of year. I'm planning to publish my review before the 4th.
Miss Fiona Daisy is the twistiest cat I've ever had. I'm not even sure how this position is possible. She seems to like it, though.
This picture was taken on my morning walk at the beginning of this month. I haven't been taking walks for the past few weeks, but with today's lower humidity I was finally able to get back out there. We are in for some very hot weather beginning on Sunday and lasting at least a week, so it will be a while before I'm able to get back out there and walk again. May was a pleasantly cool month and June has been okay so far, but we're going to pay for that next week. I can't wait until fall!!!
Your cat is a contortionist. Very cute and very funny. Thanks for playing along on Friday56.
ReplyDeleteYes, a contortionist she is! Lol! Thanks for hosting! :)
DeleteDead, White and Blue looks really good. It's definitely a great read for this time of year. Fiona is so cute. My Kit is always getting into twisty positions too.
ReplyDeleteCats have that gift of flexibility. :)
DeleteThe book sounds interesting as always and your view of the water is lovely. We're too hot for much of anything outdoors, also.
ReplyDeleteFiona Daisy, you either need to teach cat yoga or acrobatics, one. Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!
She would excel at both of those! Thanks for hosting. :)
DeleteThat is a cute photo of Fiona. Cats do get in some amazing positions.
ReplyDeleteFiona says thank you! :)
