Sent to Death: A Megan Montaigne Mystery | Pam Stucky

so-so

Megan‘s got a job as an extra in a movie about rock climbing. Things get complicated when the star of the movie is found dead at the base of the rock wall. At first, it seems like an accident. & then the second body is found.

Fun. It got a little overly technical w/ rock climbing details, & there were way too many characters to keep track of. But it did keep me guessing, & I liked all of the characters & the friendships involved. 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑

julieclair I should probably read this one. My son is really into rock climbing and I know nothing about it. Maybe I could learn something from all those technical details. 🙃 10h

Finished last week for #ThematicCozies April #Sports theme, one of my two picks. I don‘t know that this one is really that sports related. The MC goes to Mackinac Island to help her boss‘s father with his bike shop when he breaks his leg & starts trying to solve a murder when he is accused. There‘s talk of a bike race but most renters are tourists getting around the no-car island. Still it was cute-maybe a little over ⬇️

DebinHawaii …top at times with just how accident prone the MC was, but I overall enjoyed the audiobook (free on Audible) & would listen to the next book in the series. (This is book 1). 6d

TheSpineView Well done!🤩🩷📚 6d

julieclair I‘d read it just for the Mackinac Island setting. I‘ve always wanted to go there! 6d

Killer Run | Lynn Cahoon

pick

Everything I like in a cozy mystery. Amateur female sleuth, police detective boyfriend, likable supporting characters, small town setting, and a mystery that I can‘t figure out. I‘ll read more of this series. 4⭐️

This was my April pick for #ThematicCozies #Sport, and also my #BookSpin #DoubleSpin

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! Also - I got Indiscretion in the mail yesterday!!! Thank you so much for sending it back, I genuinely forgot you had it 😂 But in fairness I've had The Smile of a Stranger for so long that I literally don't remember who is supposed to get it next! 😂 😂 😂 7d

julieclair @TheAromaofBooks 🤣🤣 Once the structure of #LMPBC disappeared, we dissolved into chaos! 🤪🫠😂 6d

This was just okay, nothing special, but it was repetitive in places.
