A Dog Mystery and a Magical Romance: Sunday Salon

 

Currently reading

Cat on a Hot Tin Woof: Chet & Bernie Mystery 

Join Chet the dog, "the most lovable narrator in all of fiction" (Boston Globe), and his human partner Bernie as they scramble to solve a case exposing the dark side of internet fame.

Chet the dog is less than enthusiastic about the Little Detective Agency’s next case. Chet and his human partner, PI Bernie Little, have been hired to find a missing person—only the missing person is a cat. Miss Kitty, an internet sensation, has disappeared, and Chet and Bernie have been hired to find her before her many followers realize something is wrong. (publisher)

I just love Chet, the narrator of this mystery series, as he is funny, astute, and innocent all at once. The books are entertaining because the people, the surroundings, and the detecting are seen through his eyes, the eyes of this clever but un-human dog detective. 

This book will not be printed till next spring, but I am reading the advance unedited version, thanks to the publisher and NetGalley.


I am also still reading last Sunday's posted books about the Camino Way, the pilgrimages made across northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela and the cathedral there that honors Saint James. (See last week's Sunday Salon).

Skip to the End by Molly James, Aug. 2023, Forever

This is a delightful romance with a touch of magic. Amy can tell by a kiss what the future would be with the man she kisses. She hasn't found Mr. Right as yet, who would promise true love and happiness. 

When she sees a happy ending with a kiss at her friend's wedding, Amy is at her wits end to figure out just which of the three men she kissed that night showed that happy future. 

The rest of the story is fun to read.
