Puppies and poison in Dead in Dublin

August 17, 2021 / 3 minutes of reading / 1 Comment

Dead in Dublin is the first book in The Dublin Driver Mysteries, which surprised me when I looked it up today. There is lots of backstory summarized in Dead in Dublin, and I assumed that there were probably three or more books before it in the series. So this book may leave you a little hungry for more details of “what happened before,” but it is a fine standalone mystery and I’m sure the author will reveal more about Megan Malone’s origin story throughout the next two books in the series. I will definitely pick up the others as they become available through my library app.

Adopt a Cat Month

June 24, 2021 / 8 minutes of reading / 2 Comments

In 1974, The American Human Association started Adopt a Cat Month (June, of course.)

Not everyone wants to or should adopt a cat, but there are a lot of kitties out there who need good homes, despite the best efforts of many people to keep them safe and keep the population down. A lot of people believe that cats should be allowed to run wild outside, which contributes to the problem of cat nuisances, unwanted and feral kittens, and the number of cats whose lives are shortened by vehicles, bullies, or coyotes or other natural predators.

I think this is the first time I have read something from Connie Shelton’s Samantha Sweet Mysteries. Bitter Sweet is book #5, but you will have no problem understanding who the players are or what is going on. It is a self-contained mystery like most of the cozy or traditional mysteries that you have read.

Start Over with the Christmas Cupcake Murder

Start over? Yes, I am currently reading Joanna Fluke’s Christmas Cupcake Murder, and while it is book 26 in her Hannah Swensen series, it is actually set before the rest of the series in the timeline. Sort of the origin story for Hannah and the Lake Eden community.
