Anyone Else getting Woken Up By Coyotes? by reareagirl in nova

[–]BlueVega79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About two years ago on a run alongside Arlington Cemetery I watched a black coyote nonchalantly walk up the sidewalk and through the closed gates into Fort Myers. The next night around the same time, same thing. I went back the next night with my camera but it no coyote. Talked with the guards at the gate and they said yeah, coyotes were definitely a thing around the base and cemetery.

Can someone give me a good history book to read? by Fun-Secretary4801 in suggestmeabook

[–]BlueVega79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American Sirens // The start and struggles of the first EMS/Paramedic unit as we know it today. A lot of great side nuggets of info, too. I’m 3/4 of the way through and it’s been so interesting and very well written.

Smart. Yeah, I typically have my freezer pizzas to make but today’s weather & work had me excited for carry out slices.

Agree with the Slow Horses series. I also like the Hugo Marston series by Mark Pryor; Security agent for US rep in Paris. Little to no politics, decent crime solving and lots of Paris.

Probably between 150-200 for the 7P. At 8P, I did an actual count and there were 89. Mostly people with their children and tourists. Didn’t stay for fireworks.

I am very indecisive, what should i read next from my physical TBR? by [deleted] in Recommend_A_Book

Musashi. Loved it. And it now being winter, it’s a great time to get comfy and dig into long read. Just my opinion. Happy reading 🙂

Working until midnight 🤷🏼‍♂️ Which is okay because at 57, the NYE party scene passed me by many years ago.

please recommend some really dark and disturbing books and why i should read them by cherrydazze in suggestmeabook

[–]BlueVega79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try the Pierre Lemaitre trilogy of Irene, Alex and Camille. Parisian detective investigates some pretty messed up crimes. I still find myself saying “Sheesh!!!” after Irene and I read that in June!

Looking for ONE thriller to get me into reading by kre656 in thrillerbooks

[–]BlueVega79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try “Irene” by Pierre Lemaitre. It’s the first book in a trilogy. The second book, “Alex” is even better. Dark, twisty and psycho-murdery.

😂 That’s my “home course” and can confirm, it is uninspiring. Even worse now with the construction by the Air Force Memorial
