2 Stars
I thought I was done with Charlaine Harris after finishing the debacle known as . . . .
(You totally heard that in his voice didn’t you? Samesies.)
But then we changed our T.V. provider and got the Hallmark Mystery Channel as part of the new package and I discovered that D.J. Tanner played the part of Aurora and like a crapload of these movies had been made and they often play on Sunday nights which is my most mind-spinny night of the week and I find stuff like this happening quite frequently . . . .
And … well, you get the picture.
Anywho, when I discovered these made-for-television gems of stories I’d read waaaaaaaay back when I just had to take a gander. So I watched . . . .
And watched . . . .
And watched . . . .
And … again, you get the picture. Now I’m kind of addicted to them and keep re-watching them like a pathetic nutcase (shut up, Ron). I even picked up #9 in the series after taking a looooonnnnnng hiatus. Then this one shows up on NetGalley (another addiction which I cannot quit) and well, hell, that’s like waving a baggie of meth in front of ol’ Jesse Pinkman. Especially when I found out ROE AND ROBIN HAD A BABY! and also ANOTHER DEAD BODY IN THE BACKYARD!
I really should know better at this point. These books are the literary equivalent of a meal like this . . . .
They aren’t “good” per se, but you still want to shove them in your face anyway. At this point Roe is like an old friend I don’t see very often and even though her stories of breastfeeding and the most recent color of reading glasses she purchased are going to bore the holy hell out of me, I still want to hear them. 2 Stars because according to Goodreads that means "it was okay" and that's what these are. Perfectly okay and a decent couple hour time suck. I guarantee if the next one gets dangled in front of me for free, I’ll read it too. I mean, really, who wants to eat healthy all the time anyway? Just look what it did to this poor chick . . . .
Woof! Turned her into a real dog!
