Pina Coladas and The McMasters Guide to Homicide

2/26/2023

Book are a portable kind of magic.
Sit back relax and let the book give you the answer.
~Robin Rosenstiel

This week I purged my bookcase of books that no longer spoke to me. 13 books to be exact (mix of coaching and self-help books) which will be donated to the local bookstore called Voices Book Nook. To me, books have a portable magic to them. The right book always seems to appear with the answers I'm looking for before I even ask the question. Some of my personal favorites:

Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (reminded me to return to my shamanic roots)
The Alchemist (encouraged me to follow my dreams)
The Invitation (invited me live life more passionately and honestly)
Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic ( Fluevog Shoes)
The Artist Way (reawakened by intuition and creativity)

So, imagine my surprise when 2 books appeared to me this week via Facebook ads and News Programs:

The Botanist murder mystery reminded me of the creative project I want to start this Spring - create a Nature/Plant Sound Essence CD based on local Poison Plants. As far the McMasters Gide to Homicide, I read the first few pages via Amazon (for free) and the book just made me giggle.

Imagine a Harry Potter Style University for Homicide Training

At lunch on Saturday, I was telling a friend (who likes mystery books) about the two books that magically appeared this week. I then asked her the question...I wonder what my expertise would be. And her response "Poison Plants". Go figure!!! Needless to say, I ordered the books as these two books have really sparked my curiosity. As for the title of this blog, Rupert Holmes (the man who wrote/sang Pina Colloda song) wrote the Murder Your Employer: The McMasters Guide to Homicide book. So obviously, I will have to drink Pina Collada's while I read this book.

What books have inspired you over the years?
