Status Updates From A Botanist's Guide to Parti...

Can’t wait to see what happens!

Talk about an unreliable narrator! 🤦🏻

Intrigued! 🔎

Having a lot of fun with this!

A very slow and kind of confusing start but it has finally sucked me into the plot.

Alright, I'm intrigued. Having some trouble keeping track of who is who--there were a lot of people at that party, but I'm intrigued. Maybe historical mysteries is what I'm into. Idk.

I wont lie I havent listened to this audiobook in ages, think im going to have to dnf

Mrs Henry just collapsed

“The sky had opened up and a torrent of rain began. Moisture dusted his face…but rather than shy away from the sheets of rain and rolls of thunder, Miss Everly’s face was upturned, her eyes clothes, a soft smile on her lips…she breathed deeply, ‘it’s lovely isn’t it?…fresh rain, wet grass, flowers - the scent of Earth’s renewal?…it’s one of the best things about Spring!”

So far so good. Nothing to write home about yet.

what's with the flirty switch up. I'm getting confused.

Cool so I hate it so far and it seems to be getting worse brilliant

I’m hooked! Can the precocious female botanist solve the murder?

“Elizabeth turned the corner, her usually healthy complexion lessened by a pallor Saffron recognized in an instant was caused by concern.”

Damn that’s some good writing!!

devorando

i hate this girl. how can you be so stupid and whiny at your age

Now I don’t know when I decided to continue reading this out of spite but that decision was a MISTAKE

Nothing like some quiet feminine rage and 1920s injustice in academia, mixed with deadly plants to liven up my weekend.

Did not finish for book club but this is sooo mid lmao. I could finish it in two hours and I’ll see if I can set that time at some point ngl because I kinda wanna check it off and review it even tho I don’t like it

Five hours to read this before book club wish me luck

Actually love this so far

I don’t know why but this is my second time trying to read this and I cannot get through it.

This is a fun audiobook

Fine writing and pacing. Just not fully gripping me. If I want to book of this style or time frame I’d prefer to just go for an Agatha Christie.

STEM find. This is fun and seasonal. I love books set in a university and just found the Goodreads STEM list! I want to read more books about women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. This includes me! So I'm biased.

So this is set in 1920s.
And the WW2 looms over them. I’m scared.

Mention of Alex’s dark curly hair (I forgot where it was in the book) reminds me of my friend’s hair and now I miss him so much.

Meh

Cosy core history mystery
Ideal reading in torrential rain

I’m bored
