I liked this story enough to finish it, but wow. Hannah is so negative that she's toxic, her father is allegedly so opposed to change that he doesn't allow his wife to cook anything except Irish food, and Hannah's best friend Scarlet spends all her time trying to get others to push her bakery onto everyone else. Hannah spends half of the book more worried about how she can use Belle than about taking care of her own business or thinking about how she can help Belle or anyone else.

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure why I even finished this book. I do want to read the Belle wedding books because I'm really curious about why Belle and Brock got arrested. I don't think I'll be reading Scarlet's story, though. I don't like her any better than I like Hannah.… (mehr)

Here we have the continuing adventures of Priscilla Latham Grant on Martha's Vineyard. This time, she's helping out with a local election and solving a mystery involving one of the candidates. Can she solve the mystery before the election takes place?

This has been my least favorite of the books in the series thus far. To me, it felt as if the author didn't really know the characters at all. They felt completely different to me from the previous nine books in the series, especially in the first half of the book. There was a lot of tetchiness between them and it just felt uncomfortable to read.

Towards the end of the book, the characters felt like the ones I had grown to love from the earlier books. It just took a while to get there.… (mehr)

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK
A Dog Has His Day by Janice Thompson is such a sweet book about a special little dog. And so much more knowing this sweet little doggie actually exists.

When Isabel Fuentes, adopts a feisty rescued dachshund, she has no idea what’s in store for her. A pretty fast paced story that will have you zooming through this book to see what happens next. Of course you may have to backtrack to stay with the story line. However the book gets so much more interesting when Texans quarterback, Corey Wallis’ female dachshund goes missing and everyone wants the big reward that is offered, so this has the entire town looking. You will find this fifth book in the Gone to the Dogs series a real delight to read. I love the sweet little dachshund story. My nephew has one that looks just like this one, and he is very much as sweet. These little doggies are just the sweetest breed.

If you enjoy a sweet, care free story, this is one you will love. And if you love dachshunds, then you have it made! I’m giving this very beautiful story Five Stars. Don’t forget to check put the other books in Gone to the Dogs series.

A special thanks to the author/publisher for a copy of this book. I am not required to write a positive review, the opinions here are mine alone. I am disclosing this with my review in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255.… (mehr)

Every Dog Has His Day by Janice Thompson is the 5th book in the Gone to the Dogs series and is a work of Christian fiction and a Cozy Mystery. I love how this story develops Isabel’s character and the relationship she develops with a rescued dachshund she fosters. Ginger, also known as Sasha by Isabel, seems to be the perfect canine companion.

With new characters and a new storyline, this story continues the storylines of other characters and further develops them. Corey Wallis, a famous quarterback, wants only to be reunited with Ginger, who he bought for his mother shortly before she passed away from cancer.

With some characters I could do without, I have to concede they definitely contribute to this story. The author takes the reader on quite a journey filled with twists, turns, pets, romance, and more.

So if you enjoy works of Christian Fiction and/or Cozy Mysteries, check out Every Dog Has His Day by Janice Thompson. I definitely recommend it.

I received a complimentary copy of this book, but this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own.… (mehr)
