My Thoughts
I enjoyed the story very much. The characters are interesting. The story line is catchy and well thought out. The conclusion have been spelled out as clearer as one can expect for people like myself who like things wrapped in a package and tied with a bow. No loose ends. I enjoyed every part of this book. I like the fact that there are always two or three storylines. The friendships, the dogs and everything that goes with it is a great way to keep my attention. I admit that I am never able to guess the ending.
The characters are well developed and unique. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading well-crafted cozies for all animal lovers. The setting is charming, and the three-dimensional characters are well-developed. The mystery will keep you on your toes and guessing throughout. This is an excellent series about family (both natural and chosen) and friendship and cute animals. I'm really looking forward to the next book. I highly recommend this book which I suggest you read in order for the most enjoyment and benefit.
I couldn't put this book down! I love all of the characters. A story with just the characters would be good but the mystery make this book great! I think it might even be my favorite!
Highly Recommended!
