A oração é um hábito maravilhoso. Não importa onde você esteja ou o que está acontecendo, você pode falar com Deus.

Bo-bo-book haul! 🕵️‍♂️🥳

Hit my favorite used bookstore for the first time in a long time and was not disappointed. I might have gone a bit overboard with the mysteries and thrillers. 😅

Finding the Ruth Rendell made my day because Sins of the Father (pubbed in the UK as A New Lease of Death) is insanely hard to find: from what I can tell, only Amazon had it and they wanted $14 for a brand new copy. I liked From Doon with Death and want to continue reading the Inspector Wexford series, but I don't like it enough to spend that much on a copy.

I bought Murder on Bamboo Lane because the main character is a bicycle cop and that's a novelty that I can get behind. 🚴‍♀️👮‍♀️

“No hay nada que un hombre inicuo haga que no vaya en contra de sus propios intereses. Continuamente se hace daño a sí mismo, y se esfuerza más por destruir su alma que el justo para salvarlo para vida eterna. Ésta es una verdad importante; y el salmista agrega: Higaión; Selah. Medita en esto; márcalo bien”. (Clarke)

How to Reinvent Yourself!!

(none of these photos are mine!) “Pour yourself a drink, put on lipstick and pull yourself together.” - Elizabeth Taylor

Mindset!! This is one of the most important things that comes with reinventing yourself. Therefore that toxic, negative, insecure, and judgmental mindset has gotta go. Say hello to your new positive, secure, lavish, and uplifting mindset! Now, first thing you need to do is stop taking EVERYTHING so personally. Should you really be spending your whole day overthinking what this person says about you. NO! The only opinion that should matter when it comes to you, IS YOU. Next, think with a “so what?” type of mindset. Someone doesn’t like you? So what! Someone judges you? So what! Say so what, and move on. Lastly, take care of your mind!! You can’t create a whole new mindset if you don’t take care of your mind. So, heal whatever is making your mind stressed and fill your head with lots of good thoughts. You could compliment yourself, do shadow work, watch uplifting videos, just do whatever makes you feel good.

2. Set boundaries!! Not only should you set boundaries for yourself, but also for your relationships. Whether thats with a bf/gf, family members, or even friends. Whoever it is, they need to understand to not cross the line. Now, if they don’t understand then they obviously shouldn’t be around you. This year we are only surrounding ourselves around people who deserve to have access to us. Now, let’s talk about examples of having boundaries . First example, someone may be touching you in a way that makes you uncomfortable. For that reason you move a bit away from that person and clarify that they’re making you uncomfortable. If they call you selfish, so what? They need to understand to respect your boundaries. Second, someone is disrespecting you? Tell them that you don’t like their behavior and to stop. Last example, a stranger is using your belongings without your permission? Tell them that they should have asked and you don’t want them using your stuff. If any of these people don’t respect your boundaries, get them out of your life!!

3. Change the way you dress, talk, and walk!! I would like to clarify quickly, only do this if you want to. Moving on, I’ve learnt that slower walking and talking is better. Now I’m not saying to walk and talk in slow motion. Just slightly do it slower. This way, you can play attention to your behaviors more. It can be really important to observe yourself. Not only that but in a world moving fast, walking slow makes you stand out. Also make sure when you speak, it’s clear. That way people can understand you and what you’re saying. Finally, let’s go over the way you dress. Wear outfits that make you feel good, stylish, and fit you well. If you want to wear an outfit, don’t shy away. Wear it if it makes you feel happy! When you wear an outfit that makes you confident, the outfit is even cuter. Don’t forget, have fun with fashion and experiment with pieces.

4. Self-worth!! You need to understand that you’re an absolute BLESSING on this Earth. You are here for a reason and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. There is not a single flaw in you. You see your insecurities? Yeah, well someone out there has them too. Just because you have a few insecurities, doesn’t mean that should bring your value down. You should bring your value up and add taxes by realizing your worth.

“It is far better to be alone, than to be in bad company.” - George Washington

Love you dolls sm!! Remember to always wear a smile and stay pretty 💋

Agradeça a Deus a cada nova manhã pelo seu amor por você. Você percebe que nunca há um minuto em sua vida em que você não deixa de ser especial para Deus e amada por ele?

Hello! I have been reading the Lynley/Havers mysteries by Elizabeth George, and it looks like you are a fan! I'm on the fifth book, For the Sake of Elena, and as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I've been honestly kind of sad at the way that multiple plots so far feature trans or gay murderers, abusers, and con artists (I can be more specific but wasn't sure if I should give spoilers). Do you know whether George's portrayl of trans and gay people becomes more nuanced in later novels? I expected the normal content warnings with any murder mystery series, but did not expect these negative stereotypes. It's discouraged me.

Hello! As a fellow queer reader of mysteries, I know this kind of unease/frustration. Like those of any good mystery writer, George's novels reflect and comment on the society around them. So the answer to the question of whether the options for queer characters change is: yes, of course! It's been a while since I read/reread the early novels, but I will say that one thing that niggled at me was that I had a hard time, sometimes, discerning where the views of George's characters (often with prejudices unexamined and otherwise) and her own diverged. I think I recall that in many ways, there was a plot in A Suitable Vengeance that explored the pain of gender dysphoria, small-town homophobia, and compulsory heterosexuality rather thoughtfully. But each book with relevant plot lines -- again, that I recall -- is rather a curate's egg in this regard, and can be given a variety of readings. Sorry if this is less than helpful. On a different note, I'm pleased that you also think they should be known as the Lynley-and-Havers novels, not just the Lynley novels.
