TBR TAKEDOWN: Week 19 (October 6)
This week we're doing a special Cozy Mystery poll to finish the first round of the Takedown! Now, I love a cozy mystery, but it's hard to find good ones - the writing is not always good or as diverse and progressive as I'd like. So this week, I have a new question for you:
TLDR: I have too many unread books, and I’m asking tumblr to help me downsize. Comments and reblogs welcome, book descriptions below the cut. See my pinned post for more info.
I'll be taking a break after this poll but will be back in November for round 2 with my Goodreads TBR!

Foul Play at the Fair by Shelley Freydont
When a rotten apple spoils the local harvest festival, event coordinator Liv Montgomery becomes an unplanned amateur sleuth in the first mystery in the Celebration Bay series.
As more and more tourists flock to Celebration Bay, New York, to enjoy their seasonal festivals, the town is in need of a professional coordinator. Enter Manhattan event planner Liv Montgomery, tired of big-city stress and looking for an idyllic spot where she and her Westie terrier, Whiskey, can put down roots. The Harvest by the Bay Festival is Liv's first chance to prove herself, and everything from apple bobbing to pumpkin painting goes perfectly--until the body of an itinerant juggler is discovered stuffed into an antique apple press.
With a murderer on the loose, town leaders threaten to shut down the upcoming Halloween and Christmas festivals. But the town's livelihood is at stake, and there is no way Liv is going to let that happen, even if she has to solve the murder herself. No matter how many balls she needs to keep in the air, Liv is determined to find a killer who's rotten to the core...
The Pickled Piper by Mary Ellen Hughes
After her dreams of romance are crushed, Piper Lamb decides to pursue her dream of opening her own shop of pickles and preserves, called Piper’s Picklings, in the idyllic small town of Cloverdale. But she isn’t in town long before she encounters a barrelful of trouble…
The Cloverdale fair offers Piper a sweet opportunity to promote her business. With her new assistant, Amy, she sets up a booth centered around an eye-catching display of the ever-popular dills in an old-fashioned barrel of brine.
But things soon turn sour when fairgoers witness a fight between Amy’s boyfriend, Nate, and town council blowhard—and bagpipe player—Alan Rosemont. When Rosemont is found floating in Piper’s barrel, Nate becomes the prime murder suspect. With Amy’s boyfriend in a pretty pickle, there’s no time to dillydally. But as Piper searches for the real killer, she needs to be careful to preserve her own life…or she may end up a pickled Piper herself.
How to Wash a Cat by Rebecca M Hale
Two cats are better than one...
A deceased uncle and a surprising inheritance propel a woman and her two very curious cats into the mystery surrounding his death.
An investigation that starts amid the curios and novelties of a San Francisco antiques shop follows a twisted trail of dangerous deception that leads all the way back to the days of the Gold Rush itself.
A Peach of a Murder by Livia J Washburn
All year round, retired schoolteacher Phyllis Newsom is as sweet as peach pie-except during the Peach Festival, whose blue ribbon has slipped through Phyllis's fingers more than once...
Everyone's a little shook up when the corpse of a no-good local turns up underneath a car in a local garage. But even as Phyllis engages in some amateur sleuthing, she won't let it distract her from out-baking her rivals and winning the upcoming Peach Festival contest.
She and all the other contestants guard their secret, original recipes with their lives-and talk a whole lot of trash. With her unusual Spicy Peach Cobbler, Phyllis hopes to knock 'em dead. But that's just an expression-never in her wildest dreams did she think her cobbler would actually kill a judge. Now, she's suspected of murder-and she's got to bake this case wide open.

Do you think the determination stops dripping when he sleeps or does he ruin every pillow he has?
#UTDR#UTMV#Killer Sans#Horror Sans#Dust Sans#Nightmare Sans#Bad Sanses#I think it's funny if he wakes up all smudged like he forgot to take off some makeup#He fell asleep on Cross one (1) time and Cross has never forgiven him#His entire outfit is white do you know how hard determination is to wash out Killer??#(He does actually he is constantly washing the pillow covers Nightmare got him for this reason)#Also his cat is white they are a terrible combination

I’m allowed one (1) vent of the colossal amounts of pressure my body and mind are under per month and i usually do my best to bury it in the early hours of the morning, so now that i’ve provided this valuable and important context:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
#my stuff#i need to be beaten to death i need to be eaten alive i need to be slashed and stabbed and burned to ash#nothing i do will ever EVER be enough to make up for the existential guilt that gnaws at my soul#i’m hungry i’m tired i’m stressed about work and the safety and well-being of my family and friends#i miss my goddamn ex over a year after the end of a 6 month relationship like a pathetic wretch#i will never be pretty the way i wanted to be as a child and can only make myself enough of a freak that i don’t care#i want to be brutally harmed so the flesh of my body will show a fraction of the damage i feel inside#these wounds do not heal no matter how much i try to treat them with friendship and food and music and life#it is all insufficient. i was not supposed to live this long.#i try every day to be kind and to make the world a better place so that maybe just maybe i can say i earned the right to live that day#it never feels like enough. it probly never will#i’m so angry i’m so sad i feel incurable lonely no matter how much time i spend with friends#as soon as the call is over or i head home the darkness washes right back in and i feel like an abandoned cat on the roadside again#i want everything to be okay. It’s not right now#i want everyone i love to be warm to be safe to have enough to eat but I AM NOT GOD#i can’t fix everything no matter how much it makes me writhe inside#i’m a broke fucking grad student with a useless fucking project and they should bury me alive in the field research camp#perhaps a vegetable would cause less despair

#bjd#resin bjd#if you recognize the precise polyfiber yarn this sweater is made from#congrats you're old#(and I do mean you know exactly the fiber and how it feels ultra soft and cool to the touch)#also how stupid this yarn is because the wash ruins it immediately but guess what#it makes nice doll clothes ha HA#anyway he looks a bit too girlboss cutesy in this#and wouldn't approve of 'fashionably' ripped up jeans#or shiny black boots probably#but it's what he gets until the shoes I ordered for him arrive#also he can stand without the dollstand#he's just on it because I'm worried the cats will knock him over

had to put the quilt made by my great aunt before i was born in the wash please send a prayer for the very old fabric
#g talks#it’s so old#pretty sure it’s as old or older than me#but I’ve used it every day for like 15 years#and I’ve been so careful with washing it to preserve it#so I was livid when i found out the cat threw up on it MULTIPLE TIMES this evening#put it on a delicate cycle#wrung it out by hand#now it’s on a no heat dryer cycle#that’ll probably last all night with how big/thick it is#and it’s already 2am#sigh#mine#/mobile#/okay to reblog

Yesterday was special, so I decided to ignore all my college work to just sit and draw aircon, as a treat.
I was going to work on my object series, but the brain rot for these two is horribly contagious and one of my friends kept egging me on, so I folded. Also, I am so happy about the amount of aircorn art being produced. You guys don't realize how happy it's making me rn.
Also, I have not drawn cats in a hot minute despite them being my favorite thing to draw, so this was very comforting. (Lowkey inspired by @ / knightobreath's stream I crashed a bit ago, thanks man)
I remember seeing a warrior cats post about pairing usually being a short fluffy dude and a tall lanky dude. This is it boys, this is the dynamic ⬆️
Progress pictures under cut lol:
Have a great day, fellas, and keep the art coming /j!
#popcorn's fur always smells like butter no matter how much you wash it#airy smells like smoke and dirt. he's so stinky bro#ya'll don't realize how much fun drawing popcorn was I just love her fur#hfjone#showvember#katiekatdragon27#cat#airy#popcorn#hfjone airy#showvember popcorn#popcairy#aircorn#catified#ship art#osc#osc shipping

Bad news, I might me allergic to fabric finishing chemicals
#formaldehyde specifically but the jury's out until February#also who knew they used so much formaldehyde in textiles#it's that or another chemical probably smh#I'm already allergic to *all* pollen why not add some chemicals to the mix smdh#I can wash most of the fabric but I'm a bit concerned about the wool....#it would add like another day of work to all the projects too...#also probably no more fabric dying which really puts a damper on things#do you know how hard it is to find fabric the color of the grey undershirt?#to be fair it could be something else but it's likely a chemical allergy (they think)#thank you terrible health insurance for ensuring I have to wait 4 months to find out#can I blame the cat I had to dissect in high school? bro only had one kidney then it just went downhill from there#cosplay updates

all of the stray cats in Hawkins follow Eddie around like he’s the pied piper and no one knows why, not even him. maybe it’s because he keeps treats for them in his pockets and is constantly feeding them, but probably not. it’s probably just because they dig his aura or something
#eddie#anya.txt#freak eddie agenda#he really thinks they just like his vibe and wanna hang out#he’s like well maybe a witch or something. who knows!#wayne is like boy how many times do i have to tell you to take the cat treats out of your pockets before putting your pants in the wash

Mr. Smith: Is this mind of mine a horrible monster by my own creation or is it this beast my father’s doing?
Me: I just said you couldn’t have another popsicle dude chill
#safe place project#mr. smith#this boy is no longer allowed to watch Dead Poets Society#take a nap#when did I become your father#2 popsicles per person#or per flower#or per fox too#or uh per cloud#per cat too#oh and can’t forget per clock cowboy#and one per clown#Charlie’s hyper enough#oh and Toby can’t have any his blood sugars too high as it is#and washing machine doesn’t like them anyway#the milkman brought them so I’m not sure how many he ate already
