About

Almost 30 years ago I read my first Nancy Drew book, "The Hidden Staircase." I've had a love affair with mysteries ever since. -Kristi.

5/5 Stairs to Meet Me in Monaco. J'ai adoré ce livre! If I had to pick one word to describe this book it would be GLAMOROUS. The setting. The characters. The story. The romance. The perfume. Grace Kelly. It all pulls together for a beautiful, lovely, romantic, glamorous gem. Beautiful read for a summer getaway, or a poolside escape. I listened to the audio book and the narrators brought the story to life. Makes me want to travel back to the Côte d'Azur. Je recommande fortement!
This was waiting for me in my mailbox today from @karenhallionart . Just putting it here in case you need it today. #youcanbeanything
I just got to sit in on the most fantastic virtual author event! Loved listening to author @alex.michaelides talk about his first book “The Silent Patient” (haven’t read that one yet but adding it to my list…) and his upcoming release “The Maidens.” (Expected publication date 6/15.) He covered so much from his background to his writing process (I love to use mind maps too but mine aren’t nearly this complex!) to Cyprus and the origins of Aphrodite. He answered questions and gave great insight into both of his books, and I’m hoping someday soon he’ll be able to do a book tour in the US as I’d love to attend an event in-person! I haven’t quite finished reading #TheMaidens yet, but now I’m really looking forward to finishing Mariana’s journey and finding out whodunit. #TheMaidensGiveaway @celadonbooks #bookstagram
Nemesis is the #readchristie2021 June pick. I’m not too far into it yet, but I definitely see the origins of Murder She Wrote’s Jessica Fletcher. One of my favorite television sleuths! #classiccrime #agathachristie #junereads #junereads2021 #bookstagram #whatareyoureading #whatiamreading #whatamireading #amateursleuth #amateurdective #mystery
