Saturday Reading Wrap-up - 10/11/25

 Hello!  I know I'm not doing these as regularly as I used to, and thanks for stopping by anyway.  I didn't do much again this week.  It's been a slow reading year.  Things like this happen.  I'm woefully behind on my reading goal, of course.  It is what it is. 

No new books this week.  I did stop at a thrift store, but all I got was a bookshelf.  This particular store has jacked the prices up on all their used books and they're being such snots, I don't buy books from them anymore.  And after the experience buying the bookshelf, I won't be buying anything there anymore.  So sad, but them's the breaks.  The new-to-me shelf is only a two-shelfer, but it's holding my omnibuses, my Phyllis A. Whitney collection, and my Victoria Holts.  (This will mean more as you read below... I have a lot of both. LOL)

Books Read:

33) Dream of Orchids by Phyllis A. Whitney (10/9/25) - romantic suspense - 5 stars.  Neither new to me nor underappreciated.  Picked up from a thrift store for 50c.
Review: "I read it again, but only realized partway though that I had. Still just as awesome the second time around."

No DNFs.

Currently reading... a Victoria Holt I picked up from the thrift store.  I only just started it, but so far, so good.

What have you been reading lately?

  1. I'm at 96 books on the year, 3 ahead of schedule. I have no clue what I've reported and what I haven't. I've slept and listened (my form of reading) since then. Here's the 2 most current:

    96 - Framed in Death (In Death/Eve Dallas #61), JD Robb. Futuristic Polic Procedural/Romantic ELements. 5 stars because...JD Robb and Eve Dallas. Spoiled rich boy kills for his art. Eve and crew nails him.

    95 - Bonded in Death (ID/ED #60(, JD Robb, see above. 5 stars. Relisten. I like this one for historical background on some of the characters. Murder goes back to 12 "friends" during the Urban Wars. The old folks still got it.

    Currently listening to ARCHANGEL'S ASCENSION, Nalini Singh. I have thoughts on this book. Next week. About half-way through. Not sure what's next. Happy reading!
