Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2400 KP) rated Sprinkle with Murder (Cupcake Bakery Mystery, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When Mel is accused of murdering her best friend's fiancee, she has to set down her cupcake tins and start sleuthing to find the killer.
I've heard such praise for this series, and I didn't feel the debut quite lived up to the promise. However, I did find the plot good and the characters real. I enjoyed the book enough that I will continue on with the second in the series.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2400 KP) rated Cinnamon Roll Murder (Hannah Swensen, #15) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When the piano player of a jazz band is killed, Hannah springs into action to find his killer. Meanwhile, she's also looking for a way to stop Hannah from marrying Dr. Bev. The characters were great as always, and the mystery was fun. But the Norman/Dr. Bev story was unrealistic. I'm hoping, however, that it is leading to the end of the Hannah/Norman/Mike love triangle.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2400 KP) rated Pampered to Death (A Jaine Austen Mystery, #10) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Jaine Austen is off to a spa thanks to neighbor Lance. Only when she gets there, she learns it's really a fat farm. When another of the guests gets murdered just before Jaine is going to escape, she decides to find the killer so she can grab some real food. This is another funny adventure for Jaine, and I laughed my way through it from start to finish.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2400 KP) rated Mistletoe Murder (A Lucy Stone Mystery, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Lucy Stone is working nights at a mail order company. When the owner is killed in the parking lot, she begins to piece together gossip to find the killer. I like the characters, but the plot was slowed down so much in the first half by every day life (Lucy is a married mother of two), that I was bored. Things did pick up in the second half.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2400 KP) rated Naked Heat (Nikki Heat, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Gossip columnist Cassidy Towne has been murdered, and Nikki Heat must solve this high profile case quickly. To make this worse, writer Jameson Rook was profiling Cassidy, so Nikki must reunite with Rook to try to find the killer. Lots of great action and plenty of fun for fans of the TV show Castle. The writing was definitely better this time around, too, although it still could have smoothed out in a few spots.

bre (180 KP) rated Powdered Murder in Books
Jun 25, 2018 (Updated Jun 25, 2018)
A. Gardner's first published book was also my first cozy mystery to read. The writing kept me hooked from start to finish, and I never would have guessed who the killer was from the start! The 'clues' presented kept the plot intriguing and the subtle touch of romance added a little touch that made it even more enjoyable to read. No violence or gore, with just a touch of suspense to keep you reading on. All in all, a great read for an introduction to a new genre.
KarenRC (6 KP) rated This Little Piggy (DI Rosalind Kray, #2) in Books
Jul 23, 2018
Told from almost alternate perspectives of Roz and Kevin, this story zooms along with twists and revelations aplenty. Although we know that Kevin is the killer almost from very early on, the full details are held back and we find out as and when Roz does.
Another brilliantly done tale from Rob. The murdery side is as grisly and graphic as ever and Roz is as intuitive and ballsy as before. Can’t wait for no.3!

Kaz (232 KP) rated Candy Crush Saga in Apps
Jul 17, 2019
A great time killer
This is a simple game, but it gets very addictive, very quickly. I like all of the fun graphics the game uses, but I have found that the apparent really difficult levels, are not that challenging at all (although as the game goes along, I may regret saying this!).
It's a game game to pick up when you have some time to kill, but I can see that after a while, this game could become rather repetitive.

Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Hell Fest (2018) in Movies
Jul 2, 2019
Hell Fest was hella fun! Hell Fest is the perfect horror movie to kick off the Halloween season. While I was able to really get into it as I was only weeks away from meeting up with my friends in California for some hellish festivities of our own, I really think anyone that watches this movie will feel like it's your friends that you're hanging out and trying to survive with. Get your RIP front of line pass to Hell Fest and prepare for a killer good time.
