It's Twozday!

Manny and Chili Bruce, napping together as usual.

On the footrest of MY chair, upon MY fleece.

Beddy made for one, holding two.

Again, the footrest.

In honor of June is Audiobook Month:

All are narrated by Sarah Mollo-Christensen.

Private Detective Atticus Riot, in Victorian-era San Francisco, California, left his job to travel the world after his partner was killed, and he took a bullet to the head.

Back after three years, Riot is pulled into an investigation of a missing heiress, Isobel Kingston, against his better judgement.

Two ransom demands were made, the mystery of which snags Riot's curiosity up from the deep depths of sorrow that plague him.

Loved these stories enough to buy the entire series in book form!

It's PO'Monday!

Late May, 2017, and we were in a good mood.

His fur had so many wonderful colors and patterns.

In honor of June is Audiobook Month:

I recommend the Susan Ryeland series, written by Anthony Horowitz.

Magpie Murders, 2017

Narration: Samantha Bond and Allan Corduner

Moonflower Murders, 2020

Narration: Lesley Manville and Allan Corduner 

Moonflower Murders, 2025

Narration:  Lesley Manville and Tim McMullan

Susan Ryeland works for a book publisher, dealing with authors.

That is, until one is murdered.

Anthony Horowitz writes these stories from both Susan's point of view, and the mysteries that the private detective character Atticus Pünd solves from the book she is editing.

Clever, gripping, a touch of humor, and always jaw-dropping solutions.

And poor Susan is always in the heart of the action, whether she wants to be or not.

Lord John *eyebrow waggle*

June 1 is World Outlander Day.

Below are pics gathered from who-knows-where, images taken from the Starz TV show "Outlander".

I've only listened to the audiobooks, (have only seen a few episodes of the TV show by borrowing the DVD's from the library) and many may not know that there is a secondary series that feature Lord John Grey.

A man in uniform...well, I just cannot resist!

Lord John appears throughout the Outlander books, but he's a major part in:

-Lord John and the Private Matter (2003)

-Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade (2007)

-Lord John and the Hand of Devils (2007)

-The Scottish Prisoner (2011)

-Steven Stones to Stand or Fall (2017)

Narrated by Jeff Woodman

 A compelling character, played by Australian actor David Berry, Lord John is a military man, with many secrets and a penchant for getting involved with Jamie and Claire Fraser.

Am waiting with very little patience for Book 10 in the Outlander series; the author Diana Gabaldon has a title "A Blessing For A Warrior Going Out" but there is yet no publication date.

NO, dear friend E.T., I will NOT get a tattoo of Lord John, but I would buy a pair of pajamas with his likeness on them.

Lord John was my laptop wallpaper for a long while, until The Hubby grumbled a bit about it.
