You might actually like that book if you haven't read it before. It's called Eight Perfect Murders by Peter Swanson, about a bookseller working in a Mystery bookshop in Boston. He writes a list of books for his bookshop blog, all of them almost perfect or perfect murders, and then the book goes on from there. <a href="https://empireofthecat.com" rel="nofollow">Elle xx</a>Empire of the Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794649869180755109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-84397189947181395042021-08-10T11:25:44.763-04:002021-08-10T11:25:44.763-04:00I actually read that Milne story before.

Of course, I would like to read the Gothic tale of Alice, too. Thanks for sharing all of these this month.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-84940140855061043612021-08-09T06:55:11.928-04:002021-08-09T06:55:11.928-04:00Hello Erika, I nearly missed this and I always enj...Hello Erika, I nearly missed this and I always enjoy seeing what you have been reading, always a varied mix. I was interested in the A.A. Milne mystery, that is a good recommendation. Isn't it annoying, though, when you finish a good book and the person has not written any others in the same genre. Another one you showed was by Nevada Barr and although I have not read any Anna Pigeon novels it struck a chord and I went to our bookshelf (the crime section!) and discovered "Mountain of Bones", an Anna Pigeon novel written in 1995 so I have transferred it to my to-be-read pile, thanks for that.<br />I appreciate the way you show the book covers which makes your carefully written synopsises come alive. It must have taken ages for you to write this blogpost and take and show the photos and it is very much appreciated, thanks.sheila 77https://www.blogger.com/profile/00698767195924308373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-49012436874631931832021-08-08T13:17:12.370-04:002021-08-08T13:17:12.370-04:00Hi Always enjoy seeing your reading list as your b...Hi Always enjoy seeing your reading list as your books and authors are all new for me.

Sheila Colla, the last author listed is a local entomologist, and before the dark days of COVID made a presentation to our naturalists club and signed my book. I always pass on your list of books to my wife since she reads far more fiction than I, but a book we have both read recently and enjoyed very much is "Miss Benton's Beetle". If you are looking for a good read, I highly recommend it. Thanks very much for the link to my blog. Enjoy the weekend.David M.

It's a shame it was his only mystery novel. The real-life story of those giraffes is fascinating. I can see how it would lend itself to having a novel written around them. I keep meaning to read more Nevada Barr. I look forward to regular library trips being part of my life again. Connie Willis is a genius! I don't read much non-fiction, but I have a soft spot for natural history and travel narratives. Thanks for these recommendations.

I’m reading West With Giraffes now. I am about 120 pages into it. It’s a slow read, but I find it interesting in terms of history and Belle Benchley. Plus I just love giraffes. Happy reading and keep cool the weekend.

I listened to the Red House mystery, too and enjoyed it. Glad you are studying bees, I'm sure it's an enormous field to learn. The signature of all things reminds me of Bohme's Signatura Rerum which we had to study at school many moons ago, although his theories weren't correct. I'm off for an afternoon nap here, so I'll wish you a great day!
