Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2492 KP) rated Unlucky 13 (Women’s Murder Club, #13) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
With Lindsay tracking a stomach bomber, Cindy follows up on a lead to a killer that got away. Meanwhile, Yuki is getting married.
This series is wildly uneven, but this is one of the better ones. Three plots make things a bit rushed at the end, and Claire becomes sidelined for much of the book, but it had me turning pages.

Channing Hayes' is trying to help his almost sister-in-law begin a solo stand up comic career while he recovers from the accident that took his fiancee. On the night of her big break, she vanishes.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2492 KP) rated Murder With Puffins (Meg Langslow, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A romantic weekend on an island in Maine is anything but for Meg and Michael when they find her family already at the family cabin. That's before a hurricane arrives and strands them with an island packed with birders and a killer. While this book still has the humor of the first in the series, it also features a stronger mystery.

Mortuary cosmetologist Callie Parrish is preparing the body of car salesman Bobby Saxon when she finds a needle stuck in his neck. Since his death was ruled an accident, that sure doesn't seem to belong. What's really going on? The mystery was decent, although I did guess the killer early. But I really didn't care for the amoral characters, especially Callie's best friend.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2492 KP) rated Delicious and Suspicious (A Memphis BBQ Mystery #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A TV executive is scouting BBQ joins in Memphis and creating enemies. When she dies after eating at Aunt Pat's, owner Lulu Taylor decides to clear her reputation and her friends by finding the real killer. I liked the characters, but the plot dragged at times. The first chapter had some writing issues as well, but I was ultimately glad I continued.
