under_the_silk_treeMy Forty-Fourth book for ljbookbingo is The Mystery of the Bones by C.S. Poe for #32 Read an E-Book, card found here:
It’s been a full year since the mystery that brought together antique shop owner and part-time amateur sleuth Sebastian Snow with homicide detective Calvin Winter. Patience, sanity, and their very lives have been put to the test, but love has persevered. Although Sebastian is now New York City’s best-known busybody, he’s finished with crime solving and wants nothing more than to plan a romantic budget wedding.
Then Snow’s Antique Emporium receives a decapitated human head in the mail and the holidays are gory once again. Sebastian patently disregards the mystery of a lifetime because he is done with death and danger—but the killer escalates. Before Sebastian knows it, his closest friends and family are dragged into a series of horrific murders with antiquated clues hinting to the infamous Victorian American Bones Wars. ~Goodreads Description
I have greatly enjoyed this series. Sebastian is such an awesome character. I love his snark and all of the antique-y know how he spouts at random times. I also love how fiercely he loves those around him. His relationship with Calvin is fun to read as they truly love and accept each other and there is no unnecessary relationship drama just for the sake of drama. I enjoyed the mystery as well. The only thing I am sad about is the fact this is the last story in the series and I would love to read more if the author ever decided to continue.
My Forty-Fifth book forljbookbingo is In Netherfield Woods by Ava Adams for #36 Read a Pastiche, card found here:
There is something about two characters being forced to hold still long enough to actually talk to each other that I absolutely love. In this case it is a storm that causes Darcy and Elizabeth to be trapped together and in time they talk and come to a better understanding. And from that they realize how they actually feel about each other. Of course since this is a novella this change happens quicker then in a full length book but it was still very enjoyable.
