Not quite Howling Good, but certainly Barking Mad

I might have to lay off cozies for a little bit. I didn’t highlight enough of this one for pull quotes, even.

This book is now at the top of my “books to give to friends” list

March 23, 2017 by Fiat.Luxury 2 Comments

Narfna told me to read this, so I did, and you should too.  I blame the toddler for the fact that it took me three days to finish, because what I wanted to do was sit down and read straight through. I hesitate to give away too much of the plot because it was a joy to go in knowing nothing.  So how about just a tiny summary?  Ada adores her father David, a single father who directs a computer science lab in 1980s-era Boston.  […]

Small Town Murderers come in Small Batches

March 22, 2017 by sistercoyote Leave a Comment

Lake Eden’s too small to have more than one murderer. (Kindle edition, location 3056) More cozy, more cats, more murder, all inside!

Miranda and Caliban – what came before the tempest

March 20, 2017 by Dome'Loki 4 Comments

Jacqueline Carey has been one of my favorite authors for almost 16 years now, since the publishing of her first novel, “Kushiel’s Dart”.  Full disclosure; I am a full on fan girl who named my eldest daughter after one of Jacqueline’s characters.  I always get excited when she shares on her blog her current writing project.  In 2015 she announced that she had written a new book that would be a retelling of “The Tempest” but told from Miranda and Caliban’s perspective.  However, due to […]

Atmospheric, but no mystery

March 20, 2017 by sistercoyote 1 Comment

I know I’m late to the party on this book, and that it was a Very Big Deal some time ago, but kind of like the Martian it took me a while to catch up. Frankly? Unlike the Martian, with this book I don’t think I actually missed much.

Throw to the Anchor

March 20, 2017 by sistercoyote Leave a Comment

I still haven’t quite figured out what it is with me and cozy mysteries, but I can tell you I picked this one up on a freebie deal from amazon because it’s set in a small town in Wyoming. My people are from Wyoming, so I was hoping McLinn would do all right with the characterization.
