This completely delightful book finds a group of sheep in France with their shepherdess when a deer is found horrifically killed in the woods. The sheep try to solve the mystery while protecting their own flock. It‘s so cute and fun, and the translator really did a marvelous job.

Soubhiville This sounds unique! Did your mom like it too? 2d

Aims42 This was a great read!! I hope there‘s a third book, I‘m not done with Miss Maple🤞 2d

Hooked_on_books @Aims42 I would love a third book!! And a fourth, and a fifth, and 🤭🐑🐑🐑 2d

Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville She loved it! We had both already read the first book, Three Bags Full, and loved that, too. It‘s not necessary to have read it for this one, but both are a lot of fun. 2d

Themes: Sleuthing Sheep‘s, Fun characters and great storytelling

This was Book 2 in the “Sheep Detective” series and it was just as great as Book 1 (“Three Bags Full”). I love this series, and I hope there‘s more from Miss Maple, Mopple the Whale, Sir Ritchfield, and Heather too!

This brief werewolf tale was a total treat. The conceit of each chapter being one month of the year was clever. I loved the illustrations, and was genuinely shocked at the werewolf identity reveal. I do have to take away a star, though. I‘m sad to report that I‘ve realized that 1980s SK suffered from a terrible case of fatphobia. I do not see this in his later novels, but it‘s so obvious in these earlier ones. (And I‘m reading Thinner next. 🤦‍♀️)

Urban fantasy meets supernatural romance in this series that started in 2010. It feels a bit like Twilight for grown ups, repressive gender norms & all. (Actually worse with the gender norms. According to the mc "women's liberation" still hasn't gotten to the werewolves. Yoiks.) Despite that I find myself hooked? It's a compelling story, and I want to see where it goes. Basically a coyote shifter among werewolves and lots of supernatural intrigue.

rachelsbrittain To be clear, the Twilight comparison isn't meant to be negative. It's the regressive gender norms that are the problem, and even Twilight does way better on that front 😅 2w

SpeculativeFemale I enjoyed the first few books of this series a while back, but then kind of lost track of it. I should really go back to it someday. 2w

robinb I 💚 Mercy and her crew. Between this series and Briggs‘ Kate Daniels, these are how I got started in urban fantasy. 😊 2w

iread2much One of my favorite series, it‘s a lot of fun. I‘m rereading them right now 😊 2w

robinb @5feet.of.fury thanks for the catch there. 😊 I sometimes forget who wrote what. 😂 The heroines remind me of each other. 2w

Last of my catch-up reviews for this week.

Book 2 in the Mercy Thompson series. It started off a bit slow with some repetitive info from book 1 (I understand this is necessary, but in this case it slowed down the beginning). However once our Mercy got roped into the vampire‘s problem it picked up. We find out more about the vampire seethe and how it works. We also got a bit more about Mercy‘s walker powers & some werewolf politics of course.

MeganAnn As I get back into this series, it‘s interesting to see Mercy‘s relationship with the pack, Adam and the other local creatures starting to develop. Again, I remembered little about the plot but find myself noticing details I know will come into play later. 4.5⭐️ #mercyreread (edited) 3mo

Schnoebs Dang, I‘m falling behind 😂 3mo
