The Parlor PI's discussion
Looking for Mr. or Ms. Good Read, Nov. '17 starts Oct. 20.
Looks like we have a tie: Three Drizzle, Three Thyme. Mmm?
Okay we can either do one for main read, other for side read. Or leave side read with Lucy Stone's Turkey mystery. Then that will necessitate a 2nd separate vote. (lol High roll stakes, here).
What to do, what to do? Have three reads in Nov. lol JK, JK though several of you are up to the task.
I'll give up Lucy Stone's Turkey if it will accommodate both tied titles. But then that may not be good all way 'round. If it is okay with all PI's, then we need to figure which of the titles gets main read and which gets side read? Holy cow! lol

Didn't even know you were ill, Jill. No body tells me anything. :-( Glad you're out and on the mend!
Upside is you can tell I don't gossip. lol

Kristie, I'd really like a Lucy Stone as side read as she does write a festive holiday mystery. Maybe Jill can be our tie breaker.

Okay, here's the thing...Drizzled is one I 've been wanting to read but if you look at the ratings, they are pretty bland. And though we can't always rely on them as far as high marks go, when they give low marks, it's usually for a reason.
My honest choices would be Diva/Thyme and Lucy Stone's Turkey. Okay there, I feel a weight off my shoulders. lol

Jill - glad you're back! Hoping all is mending quickly for you.
I'll switch to Diva/Thyme to break the tie if that helps...I can read Drizzled whenever I get to it.

Thanks, Allison!!
How about Diva/Thyme as main read, Drizzled, side? I'll read Turkey on my own. Would that be okay with everyone? Then we can move to obtaining books.

1. Welcome back, Jill! I also didn't note that you were having and medical issues, but am happy you are back on the boards!
2. I'm happy with Thyme being chosen. I can start the discussion on November 1st.

We are reading Drizzled with Death in the Facebook Cozy Mystery Once a Month Book Club if you'd like to join in!
LOL All the holiday buzz! I love it!! Now if only we lived closer to Pghfan, we could crash his Thanksgiving Day feast. We'd make it worth his while to let us in; knowing the PI's, we'd bring bunches of covered dishes to add to the cornucopia!
What would you bring? Mmm? I'd stop at the chocolatier in town and pick up several pounds of different chocolates and the spirit store to fetch a huge bottle of Grand Marnier. Warmed brandies and chocolates for everyone!!

Anyone who brings me chocolates is ALWAYS welcome at a dinner at my house! Friendsgiving will be held on November 19th!


Note to self: add Grand Marnier to this year's cranberry sauce! :-)
LOL you PI's. I know I'm in good company when it includes chocolate, G. Marnier and "Friendsgiving" Day!
Thankful for you!
Thankful for you!
Haven't my book yet but how much time do I have 'til discussion starts. Should be here soon. :-)
I hope to start "Thyme" on November 1st. I already had the book, but hadn't read it, and I've already started.

LOL Don't be. You have every angle covered. Like the Boy...or Girl Scouts, you are prepared!! ;-)

Thin mints first (I love chocolate and mint) and then the peanut butter ones, I can't remember the name right now.

I believe the peanut butter ones are Tagalongs. I haven't had them in years but I love them!
Nicole, the photo is wonderful! I'll be on my more trusty device tomorrow and will post it then. Have place for the graphic cleared already. ;-) . Thanks again!

I might have to sit out Drizzled. Have a medical thing I have to attend to. Wish me blessings and blessings, please. :-/

Blessings and positive vibes headed your way, Tina!
