The Kind of Man That Deserves to Be Run Down

Peg and Rose Stir Up Trouble by Laurien Berenson

December 20, 2023 by Pooja Leave a Comment

When Rose encourages Peg to meet up with a man she met on a dating site, the last thing they expect is to see him on the news as the victim of a hit-and-run, let alone to find out that there’s plenty of people who would want to see him dead.

I really enjoyed the relationship between Peg and Rose, who are attempting to become friends after a long and contentious history, and […]

A Doggy Whodunit

March 29, 2017 by Mikki Blu Leave a Comment

As a confirmed dog lover, I thought I’d give this book a shot.  I believe it falls into the category of “cozy mystery”, one of those books where someone winds up dead and the police aren’t the ones to solve the crime.  In this case, Melanie Travis is the amateur sleuth and she’s already got her hands full with a husband, two young sons and six Standard Poodles in her life.  She is also still on friendly terms with her ex-husband, as her oldest son […]
