Feb 21, 2018

Deadly Dog Days is a fun start to a new series. While trying to enjoy her lunch break, Cameron is unfortunate enough to discover a dead body in the canal. She then finds herself, and her soon to be ex-husband, being suspected of murder. Cameron decides to use her team of community service-hour seeking volunteers to help her investigate. Add in one step-daughter who has come to stay, and the victims 5 unruly dogs, and Cameron really has her hands full.

<i>Note: I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of the book.</i>

I spent the majority of this book hating the main character! She complained about everything! I mean come on lady...get-up for an adventure! Change isn't always a bad thing!

Then I had to remind myself...it's just a book!

I loved how this one ended! At the risk of a **SPOILER** I will say...she came around in the end and did the right thing for herself & her kids!

I did however LOVE the dog! Hamish is so like my Daisy!

A solid 4 stars...it is Carole Matthews so it's a minimum of 3 for me anyway!!!

Iris lives a life with everything orderly and controlled. An anonymous gift turns out to be a sick piece of artwork which leads Iris into danger. Can a neighbor and his dog help her find love, comfort, and the ability to trust again?

As with the first book in the Planted series, this is more than just a book of mystery and romance. The underlining story has to do with finding faith, strength, understanding, and support while gaining a deeper relationship with God and his teachings.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Not very good

Contains spoilers, click to show

This movie uses the fact that it is intended for a younger audience to ignore major plot holes and problems. The teenage characters make some very questionable decisions in the movie, and are rewarded for it in the end. The "bad" kids in the movie don't face any consequences for leaving another teenager injured and stranded in the desert. While the "good"kid steal money from an ATM, but thats apparently okay because the robot dog hacked it. That's just the start of the problems I found in this movie, but maybe a kid would enjoy it.

Entertaining

Informative

Thought-provoking

Thoroughly enjoyable podcast that covers all of my favourite subjects, i.e. true crime, cults, cryptids, UFOs, ghosts... I've listened for years and still look forward to each new release. Marcus is a master when it comes to compiling each show and provides strong, clear narrative throughout. Most of the time they successfully strike the right balance between serious and fun. The only downside for me is Henry going off at too much of a tangent sometimes! Finally the hosts are all loving dog-dads, and mental health advocates, which just makes me like them even more.
