Life is a wonderful thing to talk about, or to read about in history books — but it is terrible when one has to live it.

Jean Anouilh (trans. by Patricia Moyes), from Léocadia (“Time Remembered”)

thank u for the suggestions on books!! definitely in the realm of what im looking for, mind recommending some books to buy? can be anything :)

So here are some of my (and my mom’s) favourites:

The Knitter’s Handbook from reader’s digest

The knitting all around stitch dictionary by Wendy Bernard

Mastering Tatting by Lindsay Rogers

Knitting Without Tears by Elizabeth Zimmerman

Cast On, Bind Off by Leslie Ann Bestor

The Joy of Cooking (the older the edition, the weirder it gets!)

Vegetable Literacy by Deborah Madison

All New Fabric Savvy by Sandra Betzina

Sewing Basics by Patricia Moyes

Couture Sewing Techniques by Claire Schaeffer

Shirt Making by David Page Coffin

Literally any dog breed encyclopedia

These kinds of books can be pricey, but they’re not too hard to find on sale or used. Community or charity book sales are an especially great way to find stuff! How else could one possibly find “The Erotic Cookbook for Golf Lovers”??

The Henry Tibbett series by Patricia Moyes.

We meet mild-mannered Chief Superintendent Henry Tibbett who tends to solve a lot of murders while on vacation or coming back from vacation. He’s not as flashy as some detectives and it’s his famous “nose” (or instinct) that helps him solve the mysteries. Another difference from most detectives is that his wife, Emmy, comes along for the ride. Sometimes she’s more help than in other cases, but she and Henry have a nice chemistry.

I’ve only read a handful of the mysteries and Murder Fantastical was the first one. Most feature interesting, though sometimes down right bitchy suspects. Drugs play a part in a lot of cases. The actual mysteries aren’t as tricky as say Christie or Marsh, but they’re still entertaining. Tibbett at least seems to travel more than other detectives. I’ve noticed that poison plays a part in a lot of the mysteries, but shootings or stabbings can also occur. In Who Saw Her Die? the cause of death is so obsure and bizarre, only a doctor could really appreciate the details.

For the most part, I’ve enjoyed the series. I’m not really reading them in order and you don’t really need to. I enjoy the dynamic of Henry and Emmy. They make a super sweet couple - though I think sometimes Henry takes advantage or under appreciates Emmy. In Night Ferry to Death, Henry uses Emmy as bait for a thief looking for stolen jewels. It’s only when she’s attacked that he finally changes track. Yes, Emmy’s pretty tough and can take care of herself, but it would be nice to be a little protective of her. He does show his appreciation later. In Who Saw Her Die?, he flirts with a young female doctor right under Emmy’s nose. Sure, the doctor is a big help on the case, and I don’t think he really means anything by it, but it’s still makes him kind of an ass to Emmy. I find that I don’t like drama between these two - they work better as partners, not adversaries.

When reading the books, I picture Daniel Craig (probably due to the excellent Knives Out) as Tibbett and Rachel Weisz as Emmy. It would be more of a mellow Craig and Weisz isn’t as plump as Emmy, but I still love these two as Henry and Emmy.

I can’t wait to read more in the series, and some sound better than others. I’m just continuing my search through my local library for random vintage mysteries that I haven’t heard of. I hope I find more soon.

@cross-d-a, thank you for the tag!

last song listened to: So fair confession, I honestly don't listen to music all that much? But I sing ALL THE TIME (and no, I don't have a good voice, but that doesn't stop me). The most recent things playing on this personal world's-most-annoying-radio-station have been a selection of the greatest hits from Gilbert and Sullivan's "Iolanthe", punctuated Salt-and-Pepper-Diner style with one (1) rendition of the 1940s novelty song "Hey Little Hen (When, When, When Will You Lay Me An Egg For My Tea)".

last movie TV SHOW watched: New: The Lost Tomb 2 (episode 38! so close to finishing!), Old: The Avengers (John Steed and Emma Peel, not that other stuff) episode "Quick, Quick, Slow Death".

currently reading: Rereading "Network Effect" by Martha Wells (top-notch space opera with amazing characters), also partway through "The Ghost Map" by Steven Johnson (a history of the discoveries surrounding the mapping and study of a cholera epidemic in 1850s London), and "Who Is Simon Warwick" by Patricia Moyes (because good classic Scotland Yard Inspector mysteries are my brain candy). Also SO MUCH fanfic.

currently craving: I'm very very hungry, and wish I had something enormous composed entirely of carbs and fat to consume.

current project: Several different writing projects (most urgently my second/final fic for Liu Sang Birthday Week!), and of course I always have several crafty things going (most currently, a knitting project and a couple of different sewing projects).

current mood: FRIDAY

current wish: My ongoing nebulous wish is that everyone would be kind and polite, because kindness takes care of 90% of being a decent human being and basic manners can get you through most of the other 10%. My current highly specific wish is that the person I am waiting on for a time-sensitive piece of paperwork would GET IT TO ME AUGH. (Update - they just did, yay!)

currently learning: At work, more about the inner workings of our (dear god save me) government finance and HR software. Personally - oh, gosh, I don't even know. Like, you learn stuff all the time! The absolute most recent was I think the history of castile soap.

something that makes you proud: This one's a little weird, but: a patron had a medical emergency at work this week and I was the first person on the scene. And I've dealt with medical emergencies before, but this was the first one that required active life-saving intervention - and more than that, involved direct exposure to bodily fluids and close contact during a pandemic. And you always wonder how you'll handle things, but you never know for sure until you're in that situation. But in the moment, my brain just took all those worries and concerns and put them in a box and had zero question that the most important thing was to do whatever was necessary to save this human life. (And he's okay now!) So, yeah. I'm proud of that.

Zero-obligation tagging some folks I don't think I've seen tagged yet: @tazzy-ace, @hedvig-ulrika, @hesayshesgotboyfriend, @merinnan, @hils79

Book Review: A Deception At Thornecrest by Ashley Weaver

Change is a tricky thing. Often uncomfortable, awkward, unsightly, and a difficult thing to manage gracefully. Whether it's moving to a new house in a new city, purchasing a new car, or adopting a new pet, unexpected complications always seem to creep into the proceedings.

Books series are no different.

Any author worth their salt, who endeavors for a successful string of books knows - eventually - they will need to change things up. Otherwise, the series stales and stalls.

Elizabeth Peter's efficiently handled this problem by sending Amelia Peabody to a different location in Egypt (generally speaking) for each installment. Patricia Moyes employed a similar tactic by sending her husband & wife team on vacation all over the world. J.K. Rowling sends her famous wizard off to school (or to defeat dark wizards every year.

In the case of Ashley Weaver's A Deception At Thorncrest, she does the reverse - she sends Amory Ames and her husband Milo home.

And it works beautifully.

Over the past six books, neither member of our dynamic duo has spent much time at Thorncrest - so it's the perfect place for Weaver to set her transition mystery. By mixing a bit of old with a bit of new, Weaver is all set to send our heroine into new and exciting directions in future books. Even better? She accomplishes this aim with such flawless skill it makes A Deception At Thornecrest a joy to read.

One of the most significant changes in Amory's life? She's about to become a first-time mother! A fact which both she and Milo are over the moon about, in their understated way. The only hitch in the giddy-up? During the annual Springtide festival, a stable hand is murdered...Amory, our remarkable amateur sleuth, is discouraged at every turn from investigating because of her "delicate condition".

Fortunately for Lady Justice and us readers, Amory has zero interest in heeding their unsolicited opinions.

A Deception At Thornecrest was a compelling historical mystery, one which I thoroughly enjoyed reading from beginning to end. Even better, if you're not interested in reading the previous exploited of our heroine and her husband (but I would highly suggest you do as they are lovely), you don't have to! Because this is a transitional book, so long as you know aren't starting with numero uno, you can start with this installment and be alright.

Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about A Deception At Thornecrest.

I will repeat a much earlier (also anon, b/c I have no Tumblr) plug for you to read Diana Wynne Jones books, particularly Fire and Hemlock, and the entire Dalemark Quartet. Also, I don't know whether you have read the Henry Tibbett mysteries by Patricia Moyes, but they are pretty fun though not as literary as some.

I've heard good things about these! Serendipitously, I was chatting about the Dalemark quartet with someone just the other day.

Patricia Moyes introduces Inspector Henry Tibbett, an ordinary English copper with a pleasant wife and a nose for the bad guys. Sadly for Henry (but happily for us) that nose has a knack of ruining his vacations. In Dead Men, he and Emmy are headed for the Italian Dolomites, ready for a spot of skiing and some first-class people-watching, all those athletic youngsters in their swanky late-1950s ski outfits. It’s all very “Mad Men” until one dead body turns up, and then another, and it becomes clear that Murder has come to the mountain.
