Toni Lynn Donald (1997 KP) rated Deeper Than The Dead in Books
Jan 27, 2020
Read 2 of her books and enjoyed them both. She keeps the story going, you never get board reading her books. The characters were great and both books were suspenseful and disturbing. My kind of book. There was a little more romance than I usually like but still was an awesome book!

I love all her complicated-Southern-family books, but the protagonist of this one is a woman who makes a living as a comic book artist/graphic novelist, and also has weekly board game nights
Critic- Alicia K.

The Marinated Meeple (1848 KP) rated Lost - Season 1 in TV
Apr 2, 2018
Cryptic, Weird, Bizarre, Interesting, but not great....
I liked it but got board before the first season ended, and the the talk was only making me more confused, and it sounds like very few people actually knew what they were talking about.... which is great for the water cooler, but not great Tv in my book.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2067 KP) rated Dead as a Scone (Royal Tunbridge Wells Mystery #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When the board member of a tea museum is murdered, the directors must come together to figure out what happened to keep the museum afloat. I enjoyed the characters but found the pacing a little off.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2067 KP) rated In Dublin's Fair City (Molly Murphy Mysteries, #6) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Irish immigrant Molly Murphy returns to Ireland on a job to find a missing relative. Unfortunately, she gets involved with a murder on board the boat taking her back to her native country. I normally love this historical series, but this one was up to par. The mystery was sacrificed in favor of the historical plot, which was good enough to redeem the book.

Dinosaurs are a fascination for most children at a young age. Most children are into them. I have been into Dinosaurs since I was a little kid. I still have a fascination with them. This book, "Dinosaurs," is geared toward young readers and children.
It has rhyming and some fun facts about dinosaurs for children to learn. The book can help teach children and adults how to pronounce some famous dinosaurs' names and give a few fun facts about them though out the book. Little ones can hold the book, point at the dinosaurs, and have fun looking at and opening the book without damaging the book.
Dinosaurs are fun and enjoy the read. I like how a child or children can learn about dinosaurs through this book. The pictures are done well and enjoyable. Parents will love this book as it is educational and enjoyable for their children.
Dinosaurs are for though that who love learning about Dinosaurs. The board book is made nice and thick for those young readers. These are some famous dinosaurs.

Rachel King (13 KP) rated Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There in Books
Feb 11, 2019
I read this book very slowly through DailyLit, and even then I did not understand most of what I read or particularly enjoy it. When I read a book, I make a point of finding something to like about it, no matter how bad it is. I like chess, which plays a part in the book, but about the only thing that made sense in that context was Alice becoming a queen by getting to the end of the board. I know the text is a classic, but sometimes I don't care for a classic, and this is one of those times, unfortunately. While the book is chock full of great quotes, and an ideal book for a child to enjoy because of the imagination put into it, overall I'm not a fan.

Lee sits in on a library board meeting, but the missing member is found murdered at the bottom of the basement stairs. The woman was quiet, and everyone seemed to like her. So why was she murdered?
These books are always light and fun, and this is no exception. I do wish we'd see more of the sizeable collection of supporting characters, but Lee is always a fun host to a fast paced puzzle that will leave you drooling for chocolate and the next book.
