I'm so glad you enjoyed Trumpet of the Swan. I really enjoy it too. Interesting that you found that book while doing this challenge. I hope you enjoy it as much as you did in the past. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on all of these books.
We want to borrow The Girl Who Owned a City and The Trumpet of the Swan. They sound so cute. Also maybe the Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys books. Haven't read either of them for a long time but. Very good video!!
While I really enjoy the tv shows of Marple and Poirot, I do not care for the books. I think it's the writing style for me. I'm so glad you found that book that you loved so much as a pre-teen! Looking forward to hearing the rest!
I chuckled when you said you were "breaking up" with Agatha Christie. I have her on my TBR but never seem to get there. I love the Miss Marple TV series so I don't what the hold up is. (Could it be my Mount Everest TBR maybe?) I'm sorry Mrs. Palfrey wasn't an enjoyable read for you. It is a kind of sad that isn't easy to take, for sure. What I've read of Taylor so far always has a touch of something...hard to put my finger on what it is exactly. Sympathetic but underdog women, maybe? I hope Excellent Women is a Pym you'll read. I think you will enjoy that. It's my favorite of hers so far. Lots of pots of tea. And not sad! :) I'll be reading Trumpet of the Swan along with one of my grands; her class is reading it at school. I look even more forward to it because it gets a thumbs up review from you. I have a book too that I'm trying to find the title of a book I read back in the day! Your lucky experience gives me hope. I'm so happy for you, what a thrill!! Mine is a sci fi where the world's magnetic field has stopped working and causes chaos in the world. I thought it was by Damon Knight but I haven't found that synopsis yet. It could even be a short story. And he's a such prolific writer....so ARG! It makes me doubt I even have remembered it right. Looks like the next 5 should all be good reads for you. I'm up to my 10th book in this project. It's been so much fun. Has me concocting other projects I might dream up in order to tackle Mount Everest.
Bummer Christie doesn't work for you. I think your reasoning is why I don't like people saying her books are cozy mysteries because they are more complex than the average cozy of today. I don't think your meant to figure them out. 😀 Oh I like thst Dorothy Eden cover!😍 Hope you enjoy your picks!
I'm really looking forward to reading Trumpet of the Swan! I adore Charlotte's Web.
Trumpet of the Swans was a great book to read aloud, I read it for a group at work. The BFG was hilarious to read aloud. Happy reading😊📚 Bookworm lady
Happy reading to you, too, Mike. ☺️
Trumpet of the Swan is so good. The author narrates the audiobook and it is excellent! My boys and I listened to it this summer.
I think you and I share very similar reading tastes. ❤️🥰❤️

I thought Trumpet of the Swan was just so cute. I laughed, and I cried. It's a beautiful story. ❤️

Thanks mom and dad. ❤️ You can borrow any of my books. 🥰

It's so unusual to hear of someone else not being a Christie fan. But we can paddle our boat together, ok? And we'll read cozy mysteries instead. ☺️🛶📚

'Quartet In Autumn,' by Barbara Pym sounds good.
I've heard nothing but good about Barbara Pym. 🥰
Side note: love your nail polish color! ❤❤
Oh thank you! 🥰
You are doing really well with your reading challenge.
Am going to try and do this challenge but mayne with a twist - we will see what I can find.
Oh, I hope you join in. 😁 And I look forward to hearing what your twist will be. ❤️

I’ve read my books for 1962-1964 so far. Wasn’t a big fan of any of them. I’m currently waiting for my hold on Gentle Ben (1965) to come in.
I loved Gentle Ben. Hopefully, it will be a book you'll enjoy. ❤️❤️❤️
