Continuing my October spooky reads with a reread of OLLIE OXLEY AND THE GHOST by Lisa Schmid. It’s a delightfully fun & spooky middle grade mystery I highly recommend. #MiddleGradeBooks

My friend and critique partner recommended THE MYSTERY OF THE HAUNTED DANCE HALL, a middle mystery set in 1960 at a summer camp. Really enjoying it so far. #middlegradebooks

Finally got to have pic taken at the KC Public Library’s Central Library at the giant "books" on the outside of the parking garage. The 4-story garage features a collection of 26-ft-tall & 9-ft-wide books called: the Community Bookshelf.

Sweet girl says Caturday is a great day to tuck in with a new book. I’m reading indie author Elora Maxwell's new book THE RIVER’S DECEPTION. It’s a historical adventure for fans of The Mummy & Indiana Jones—totally me! I’m three chapters in and hooked. #Caturday #IndieBooks #IndieAuthors

Our Chronicles of a Cursed Midlife trilogy looks so pretty on the shelf. Not the best pic, the lighting could be better, but it's awesome seeing all three books together. You can now get the complete series.

Over on my FB author page I shared this Mystery Monday vintage book today. THERE IS A TIDE is an Agatha Christie I've not actually read yet, but this edition is in my collection. It's a Dell paperback first printing from August 1974. #MysteryMonday #AgathaChristie

I wrote some books with Kelly Garcia. The final book in our trilogy came out yesterday. Yay! You can now real ALL the Chronicles of a Cursed Midlife - and you know you want to because we're telling stories about smart, slightly-snarky 40+ women who figure out how to use magic to save the world.

Throwback post from 2024. WHO KILLED HARLOWE THROMBEY was my fav Choose Your Own Adventure book when I was a kid. Loved these books, but this one, a murder mystery, was the one I read over & over & over. The book pictured below is my original copy that still sits on my bookshelf. #MysteryMonday
