I would've gone with 5 stars for all the literary & historical references, but that very reason made it extra long a just a bit tedious. Great story all in all.
I really want to read Ash and Quill, but I'll probably have to wait awhile before I'll be able to get it from the library😩

Hilarious!!"
Oh I really need to get back into that series. I've read about 5 ..."
Totally! Grandma & Lula are my absolute favorites and Ranger is pretty hot!!
Hey gang! Hope everybody's doing well...Just wanted to let you know that I'll kinda be off the grid from tomorrow afternoon till Wednesday 6/28. I'm going to the Big Island (Hawaii) for our Aunty's 99th birthday party!! The Party's on Saturday, but we'll be gone till late on Tues. nite. Don't worry! I'll keep on reading. If I have service, I'll post, but it will be spotty at best. Hopefully I'll finish up a couple more books tomorrow before we leave!

Good, but kind of contrived as a mystery...
Oh no, Michelle! Hope they've given you lots of happy drugs! Be careful when you read in bed if it's a regular book. I almost broke my nose like that a couple of times!! Feel better soon...
