Welcome to my Friday Fun post. This is where I share with three different book parties that post on Fridays: First Line Friday, Friday Book Snippets, and Book Blogger Hop.
This week I have two books to share with you.
I'm starting an eARC of Ghosts We Unmask by Chelsea Michelle. This is the newest book in the Watson Twins Mystery series which releases on October 19th. This is the fourth mini mystery, but there are also full length mysteries in the series as well.
I'm also going to be starting Secrets in the Castle Library by Ann Swindell. This is the third book in the In the Castle Library series.
First Line Friday
(Please join Carrie for First Line Friday.)
Here are my First Line Friday selections:
Ghosts We Unmask by Chelsea Michelle:
"I growled and stared at the overflowing trash can."
I can definitely relate. Though for me, it would be my children not doing their chores. I wondered who Michelle was upset at.
Secrets in the Castle Library by Ann Swindell:
"Melanie Tallebois blew out a long breath."
I wondered if there was something wrong, so I thought I would share the next line as well:
"The envelope she held in her hands could change everything - or nothing at all."
So, then I was wondering what was in the envelope and how it could change things.
Friday Book Snippets
Friday Book Snippets is the new weekly blog party that has combined Book Beginnings on Friday and Friday56. Participants can link up at either Bemused & Bookish with Olivia or Head Full of Books with Anne. Here are the instructions:
Share two snippets (a sentence or short paragraph) from a) the book's opening and b) page 56 (or another page) from the book you are currently reading. No spoilers, please.
Here is my selection from page 56 or 56% of the way through the book:
Ghosts We Unmask by Chelsea Michelle:
"'Looks like we could use more men. So I'll go.'
'I can't,' Kyle said.
'Too afraid?' Jenna asked with a teasing glint in her eye.
'No. It's Labor Day weekend. I have some extra security jobs lines up.'
'Okay, so that's all of us except two. That's a great turnout for a supposed haunted house.' I said."
Secrets in the Castle Library by Ann Swindell:
"'He's a mind-numbingly professional man. Even the way he sits at a desk is proper.'
'Bothers you that much, does it?' Ellie's voice held a hint of a question. Or of laughter. Melanie wasn't sure which."
Book Blogger Hop.
The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Billy over at Ranblings of a Coffee-Addicted Writer. The hop occurs weekly, starting on Friday and ending the following Thursday, featuring a specific book-related prompt each week. The main goal is to connect bloggers, encouraging them to follow each other, discover new titles, and grow their audience.
This week's question is: If you designed a book-themed escape room, what puzzles would be part of it?
My answer: So, I don't really know much about escapes rooms, except for what I read in a couple of books. I really like codes that are somehow hidden in books. Like discovering somehow which book a person has to find, and then finding the clue that discreetly shows which letters or words are needed from certain pages of the book to help solve a clue. Hubby suggests books on a shelf are arranged where a certain letter of each word of the title spells out the clue. Or a clue being found in books where the cover is a certain color.
And now it is time to share my current Reviews:
Last week I shared about two books. I'm still reading the one, but here is my review of the other:
I also finished a book I shared about three weeks ago. Here is that review:
