Books read in October
Nov. 1st, 2025 04:03 pmThe Winter Walk: A Century-Old Survival Story from the Arctic by Loretta Outwater Cox (Sept 29-Oct 1)
The Butcher Bird by S.D. Sykes (Oct 2-8). The second in the Somershill Mysteries..I gave the first one to Becky and she bought the rest of the series and gave then them to me when she was done (both of us like historical mysteries). I love when the characters mention their bed curtains haha
City of Masks by S.D. Sykes (Oct 8-14)
The Bone Fire by S.D. Sykes (Oct 15-21). A "locked castle" mystery! Definitely one of my favorites in the series
The Good Death by S.D. Sykes (Oct 22-27). Please write more!! I hate when a good book series ends lol
The White Voyage by John Christopher (Oct 27-30). One of the characters' last name was "Mouritzen," so similar to my last name!
There were lots of trick-or-treaters in my parents' neighborhood last night! A Chinook came and made it pretty warm out, and the kids definitely took advantage of that (I felt bad they were getting soaked in the rain though). One person saw me and was like "you work at Forget-Me-Not [Books]!" Nice :P
Mom told me I'd remember my debit card's old PIN as soon as I went to a credit card reader, and she was right..I like my new PIN better, but I'm glad I'm not losing my mind haha
Mom, warm blankets, a comfy fancy bed to sleep in
