A Flavia de Luce mystery. Loved it as I have loved all of the books in this series. This one has a cliffhanger ending which means I have to start the next one right away!

I loved when they did the spinjutsu to cut the tree house ropes

I like Bluey barky boats because I like when calypso teaches them that it can be hard to be in trouble so she says there are six year olds floating along nice river. They turned seven years old eight years old nine. 11 down the stream and then they wait for their buddies to come back patiently.

Super quick read and really funny and sweet. If you want a great escape book, try this one out!

Thumbs up!

Very quick read to connect books two and three in the Housemaid series. It was light and gave a little glimpse into Millie and Enzo's life.

I like fancy because she is very slow and steady, but it doesn’t mean that she’s a bad horse because even though she’s slow, she won saddle up and go championship and got a blue ribbon. That’s why I like fancy. ????

A memoir about the author’s Mother’s life which begins in Laos. War between the US and Communism forces the Hmong people into the jungle, eventually they escape to Thailand where she lives for several years with her husband and a second daughter born in the primitive refugee camp. Eight years later, they immigrate to the US in Minnesota. Although, they work hard they have limited employment skills and endure racial and cultural discrimination. Their children succeed academically and help their parents when they age. A life of struggle, love and survival.

Overall, The London Seance Society by Sarah Penner was a very well written story with some twists and turns but not as engaging as her first book, The Lost Apothecary. If you are a reader that enjoys some science fiction and subtle “horror”, I would give this a try. A little hard to get into until a few chapters go by but, still a good read.

Though I have read this book many times, it never ceases to amaze. With real life characters, the plot of two rival sisters stuck in a car with each other is something we can all relate to. You learn something new about yourself every time you read this book, like looking in a mirror that was covered before. Worth the read in ways you can never imagine.
