Happy Flag Day! (At least here in the USA.) Let's celebrate with a Sunday/Monday Post where I will link up to:

It's Monday, What Are You Reading?
I got the extra reporting finished up at work. I didn't make it quite as far with the account recs as I had hoped, but I am in good shape with them.
This coming Monday marks that day I thought I would be working in the office four days a week. Instead, it will mark the beginning of week four of working from home again full time. Still rather hard to believe. I hope they don't change their mind at some point.
I went out paddle boarding again on Thursday. This time I met up with a friend and his daughter. They were in their kayaks while I was on my board. It was nice to chill with them.
And, since today is game day and I have much to do before I go, let's get on with it, shall we?
Joke of the Week:

Book Haul:
The first is The Quirky Quiz Show Caper by Sally Carpenter. This is book four in the series. I'd gotten book five a couple of weeks back and told you that I should be getting book four soon. Here it is. Actually, I've already read it and enjoyed it, so look for that review coming soon.
I also got Mystery Most Senior, the anthology from this year's Malice Domestic convention in April. Author Ellen Byron did a giveaway for a copy signed by her and Jacqueline Winspear, the Lifetime Achievement Honoree from this year's convention. I'm really glad I won it since I haven't seen it pop up for sale anywhere yet, and I did want to get it.
Finally, I decided it was time for another audio book. Since this was a last minute decision, I was lucky to get my first choice, The Law of Innocence by Michael Connelly. It's the next in my effort to read all of Connelly's books in order, and it's one I've been anxious to read since it came out in 2020. I just had to get here.
What I'm Currently Reading:
Yep, I've already started The Law of Innocence. I'm not quite an hour into it, and it's is a twelve and a half hour audio book, so I have my listening cut out for me. But yes, I am completely hooked already.
I'm also working on Pour Choices, the second Mixology Lounge Mystery from Adrian Andover. I'm about 45% into my eARC of this book and really enjoying it so far. This time, the comedian at an event the main character is hosting at his cocktail lounge is killed the next morning. The book will be out June 30th, and I'll have my full review up then.
If everything goes according to plan, I will be on to Murder at Ochre Court by Alyssa Maxwell on Monday. I'm anxious to get back to her Gilded Newport Mysteries. Hard to believe I'll be starting July books that early, isn't it? But I do want to stay this far ahead of my posting dates.
That's it for me. Have a great week!
