What I enjoyed: * The characters are enjoyable and the town is lovely * Lots of pets * Interesting mystery as the victim is unknown for most the book
What could have been better: * (view spoiler)[ It makes no sense that Marie tells Holly that Barry is her father's child. She barely knows Holly and hasn't told Barry yet - why??? (hide spoiler)] * The villain was pretty stupid (view spoiler)[ If she hadn't decided to poison anyone, she would have likely been fine, on the off chance they discovered she killed Boomer, it was to save her 10 year-old nephew. Also why was she surprised her aunt shared the cookies with her son? (hide spoiler)]...more

What I enjoyed: * Loved the cat, Butterball * The cast of characters isDelilah is opening a deep dish pizza place and her aunt's caretaker is murdered.
What I enjoyed: * Loved the cat, Butterball * The cast of characters is good overall (view spoiler)[ I'm glad Delilah and Sam are going to stay friends (hide spoiler)] * (view spoiler)[ wasn't expecting the case to revolve around drugging by a caretaker and a drug ring (hide spoiler)]
What could have been better: * Delilah could use some humility. She was upset when the police found out things before she told them - it is their job... * (view spoiler)[ I'm not sure why Veronica didn't tell the truth, the police already knew about the blackmail (hide spoiler)]...more

What I enjoyed: * Loved the zoom calls (view spoiler)[ being able to hangup on the technological deficient is awesome (hide spoiler)] * Very unique premise * Charlie is an honest man learning the villain business (view spoiler)[ which involves spy cats, spy dolphins, spy whales, satellite destroying lasers, pitch & pitch, plots within plots and no one trusting anyone (hide spoiler)] * The ending (view spoiler)[ I'm glad Charlie got to go "home", get his pub and eventually his cats. I was surprised Anton was pulling all the strings (with the help of Charlie's dead uncle) (hide spoiler)]
What could have been better: * (view spoiler)[ I wonder how worried Charlie feels that at any time Anton could decide to kill or relocate him, not to mention what is Anton up to with no real competition. (hide spoiler)]...more

What I enjoyed: * The plots of seers are fascinating and confusing (view spoiler)[ Julius and Marci get more embroiled in the plots as Estella returns.

He is still nice but devious and her power is growing like crazy. * We learn about the dragon home world (view spoiler)[ The seers killed it by selling all possible futures to get the outcomes they wanted (hide spoiler)] * (view spoiler)[ I'm glad they removed Bethesda as clan head, but giving her a seat on the council means her scheming is going to be crazy (hide spoiler)] * I'm looking forward to the next one where they will have to take on (view spoiler)[ Algonquin and whatever weapon she created that killed the 3 Sisters dragons (hide spoiler)]

What I enjoyed: * Eleanor and Nicolas are great together and it was nice to have them spend a decent part of the book together (view spoiler)[not to mention get engaged (hide spoiler)] * We also meet Armand the hypnotist, who Eleanor "killed" to get out of a partnership in the past * Vivian is a hoot as always * We meet Inspector Piper's ex wife, who is also an Inspector Piper * The mystery was great and seeing Nicolas dress up and pretend to be someone else who is romancing Ellie's brother is amazing!

What could have been better: * The whole Alex and the mob thing was annoying. Pretty much everyone realized she was an awful person. * Sawyer didn't make sense, she was hiding things from Poppy with really bad lies (view spoiler)[ and her reasoning was she didn't want to share her good news (dating the cop) since Poppy's love life was in shambles. But the lies caused more damage. (hide spoiler)]...more
