#TheCollectorsDaughter: A Novel of the Discovery of #Tutankhamun's Tomb by @gill.paul1 #KingTut The story of #LordCarnarvon's daughter is a fascinating one and one I was eager to learn more about. I have no idea where my interest in Egyptology started. Did Nancy Drew ever go to Egypt? I can't remember, but archaeology and Egyptology have always fascinated me. Maybe it was in 1977-78, when King Tut's treasures were exhibited in the United States and my brother's #SteveMartin record had the parody song on it. I was lucky enough to see Tut's treasures in Chicago about a decade ago, and I'm still just as interested as ever. Gill Paul has found a way, once again, to weave fact and fiction into a storytelling masterpiece. I know I'll be revisiting Tut soon thanks to The Collector's Daughter.

Did you know that I started out my career in media back in high school as a deejay for my high school radio/TV station? It led to me working at real radio stations and meeting my husband at one of them. I love listening to his radio stories, and thought I'd enjoy Radio Daze 1970-1976 When DJ’s Could Play What They Wanted to Play and Say What They Wanted to Say by Mitch McKracken.

Blog Update: What's Up in My World It's been a busy month at Bargain Sleuth Central. A couple weeks ago I shared that my Momma Bargain Sleuth was sick and in the hospital. And that was just the beginning of a month with a lot of changes. Click the link in my bio to read about my harried month. #hospitals #afib #gallbladder #schoolstarts #jobpromotion #toughBelgian #mothers #college #blugolds #bargainsleuth #bookstagram
#PhilipTheFinalPortrait by #GylesBrandreth #NetGalley #ARCReview This is the definitive portrait of the man behind the queen. I've read a lot about the Duke of Edinburgh over the years and have seen lots of documentaries, but I still learned a few things from reading this new book. This is the closest thing you'll come to an official biography, as the Duke is quoted in here. The author knew the duke and worked with him on one of his charities for the past 40 years.

Road trip across the state to drop my oldest off at college after I have my morning cup of tea. My husband offered to drive so I could read my books about the royals. Hopefully I’ll be able to get some reviews up next week. For those who have asked about Momma Bargain Sleuth since my last post, she’s healing slowly but that’s to be expected for an 84-year old. Thanks for the well wishes!

Momma Bargain Sleuth was in the hospital all week which is why I haven’t been posting any reviews. She’s finally at home and on the mend but it is going to be a months-long recovery, then surgery and more recovery. I hope to have some time later this week to post a review of a new book coming out on the Duke of Edinburgh. Stay well, my IG friends and family. I’ll be back when I can.
