pickIf you like reading about the search for mythical creatures, you probably will enjoy this book. The search is on for a creature in Lake Michigan. The mystery was fun. I liked the characters, especially Morgan and her dog Newt. I gave it 4/5.
pickA very fun mystery! This was a blind pick from a jar at the public library and I really enjoyed it. Don‘t rule out plausible exist-ability. Book#52 in 2024
bailedThis isn‘t bad, but there‘s something about the detective character that makes me not want to continue. Also the main protagonist makes some questionable choices. Very cool premise but I bailed at 40%
so-soKind of fun, but the writing was overly descriptive. Lots of unnecessary detail, more telling than showing. And I could have done without the romantic subplot. If you‘re in the mood for something that feels a bit like a Hallmark movie with a dash of Scooby-Doo, might be worth a try.
Door County is 3.5 hours north of me, I live in Southern WI. Only been there once but I want to go again someday soon. Looking forward to a cozy, contemporary mystery! 🍂🍁
Book haul from a Grown-Up Book Fair in Burl. These caught my eye 📚
pickThis was a fun mystery about Morgan, a cryptozoologist, who is hired by a local police chief to help them investigate suspicious deaths in the Great Lakes. Loved the characters and the dog. It was fast paced and kept me hooked, wanting to know what would happen next. Looking forward to the next book out later this year.
And now for something completely different:
Morgan Carter, owner of the Odds and Ends bookstore in Door County, Wisconsin, has a hobby. When she's not tending the store, she's hunting cryptids--creatures whose existence is rumored, but never proven to be real.
So when a number of bodies turn up on the shores of Lake Michigan with injuries that look like bites from a giant unknown animal, police chief Jon Flanders asks for her help.
