How long does it take normally for mail to come from Port Moody in BC to North Vancouver?

I'm waiting for a late Christmas gift in the mail from a friend. How long does it take normally for mail to come from Port Moody in BC to North Vancouver? 2001:569:5260:DA00:F0DC:6580:252B:3575 (talk) 00:46, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Depending on exactly how the parcel was sent, your friend may have been given a tracking number which you can use to follow the progress of this particular parcel. --174.89.144.126 (talk) 04:00, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Forums of lovers of detective literature

Hello all. What are the most popular forums for fans of detective literature on the Internet? It is necessary to ask something on specialized sites. Thank you in advance. Vyacheslav84 (talk) 12:54, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Goodreads fits the bill. You can search by group name here. --Viennese Waltz 13:44, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wrote a request to 2 places Goodreads: What's the Name of That Book??? and Book Hunting / Recommendations. Where else to write? --Vyacheslav84 (talk) 11:46, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Or Reddit is pretty good for specific questions. I couldn't find a subreddit dedicated to detective fiction, but there's a general book subreddit here. --Viennese Waltz 14:03, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, I already tried there without result. --Vyacheslav84 (talk) 06:41, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reddit is pretty good about answering, but you often have to post your query in multiple related subs. If you only made one post to one sub, then that explains the problem. Viriditas (talk) 09:20, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wrote a request to 6 places Reddit: 1. printSF , 2. tipofmytongue, 3. whatsthatbook, 4. suggestmeabook1, 5. suggestmeabook2, 6. books. Where else to write? --Vyacheslav84 (talk) 11:46, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like you got a solid answer on r/whatsthatbook. Viriditas (talk) 21:12, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
