REVIEW:
Read and Buried is the 6th book in Eva Gates LIGHTHOUSE LIBRARY MYSTERY SERIES. This is another success in a long line of great cozy mysteries by Eva Gates. It’s summer at the Bodie Island Lighthouse Library in Nags Head, NC, Lucy Richardson and the lighthouse crew are sweltering as the Nags Head Historical Society is planning a Settlers’ Day Festival located on the Library grounds. At the same time the excavation at the base of the library to repair a crack in the foundation is on-going. Grimshaw Construction finds a mysterious box way down in the excavated hole. A mysterious diary, a coded message and a crudely drawn map are inside the box dating to the Civil War era. The race is on to uncode the message resulting in the town grapevine working overtime. Then there is a break in at the library and a dead body.
I totally enjoy this story. It has everything a good cozy mystery needs, in my humble opinion. First a mystery, then a murder with many, many suspects and then a little bit of romance and I’m a happy reader.
I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who likes their murder on the clean side.
☃️17. Plan your days - Read a book from your TBR list. - Mrs. Morris and the Vampire - Traci Wilton 01/13/22

18. Manage your time better
Managing your time better means not only setting a schedule, but sticking to it. Being diligent about doing things when you'll do them. - Read a book where time is an important part of the plot (i.e., time travel, dual timeline, a looming deadline)

Choose to spend your finances on things that really matter to you. The things you buy should be related to what you're passionate about. - Read a book that you borrowed from a friend, family member, or the library
20. Don't let little things bother you as much
There are many things in life to get mad about. If we waste our time getting mad about everything, we won't have much time to just be happy. - Read a book with little things on the cover
21. Declutter your space
There may be things you're holding on to that it's time to let go. Take time to go through all the things you don't really use more. Decide to make room for new things that can bring you joy in life. - Read a book set in outer space or on a different planet

☃️16. Read any book, but you must then leave a review of it with at least four sentences. - Mrs. Morris and the Vampire - Traci Wilton 01/13/33
REVIEW: This series never disappoints. Mrs. Morris and the Vampire is the 5th book in Traci Wilton’s Salem B&B Mystery series. I love this series! It has everything I look for in a cozy mystery. The big hearted main character, Charlene the B&B owner. Her close friends, especially Minnie and Avery. There are powerful white witches, her resident ghost Dr. Jack Strathmore, and hunky Sam Elliott look alike Detective Sam Holden. There is magic, a little romance, some paranormal experiences and always a great twist in the end keeping me from deducting the killer before he/she is revealed.

A Fiancee's Guide to First Wives and Murder 02/01*REVIEW:
So, okay, I totally didn't see that one coming. What a terrific ending!
Savannah and Dirk have partnered once again to work on a crime, this time at a swanky new day spa. It's barely opened its doors before one of the owners disappears, and it's a head-scratcher with nary a clue to be found. This is followed in short order by a homicide, and it takes all their resources to hone in on the truth behind both incidents.
Interwoven into the tale is the issue of body shaming, and the rude and crude dismissal and disdain of those with ample curves. This old issue was handled well enough in the story, with a happy ending for the person involved. (Note that Savannah is also full-figured, but she doesn't trip on it, which is a boost for those readers who may struggle with this.)
I thoroughly enjoy this series, and have been stringing it along so I don't run out of books too quickly. I did read two this month almost back to back, and it' was great fun.

Is there a way to search the Mistakes bookshelf, by author or book, besides scrolling through it?

Not really.
If you think a book might be tagged 'Mistake", you can go to the book's main page and scroll through all its tags. That might be quicker.

Another Mistakes Bookshelf question. What's the purpose of that shelf? Does it mean there's a mistake in the book? Or it was a mistake to read it? Or the characters make mistakes?
