review 1: Gave up on this halfway through, once the materialism and Republican-libertarianism became totally unbearable. When did Rita Mae Brown become Ayn Rand?Also mildly irksome is the inclusion (quite briefly, and apparently only introduced as an accessory for the protagonist) of a "to...

review 1: I think the moral of the story is, don't reread authors that you loved in junior high because they will NOT measure up in adulthood. I...pretty much hated this. I mean, it was okay but it was NOT great. It became increasingly annoying having the author interject her own political...

review 1: I've been a fan of Brown's Mrs. Murphy mystery series since I was in middle school --- naturally, I enjoyed the latest installment of this wonderful series - it's full of small-town secrets, sordid rumors, affairs, society class-ranking structure, Southern charm, and old South tr...

review 1: Much too predictable for my tastes, though I've been reading a far number of mysteries these days so I may just be hypersensitive to the whodunnits. This is the only one of this series I've read thus far, so I can't judge the entire series on this one book. I may try another in f...

review 1: I still love the Mrs. Murphy mysteries, but as the series has continued the focus seems to have shifted from the animals to the humans. Harry is very interesting, but I read the books because I love the animals. I do like the very obvious research that Rita Mae Brown puts in her ...

review 1: This is the first book I have read by Rita Mae Brown, and I savored every page of it. I was a bit intimidated by the long list of characters in the front of the book because in the past I have become thoroughly confused with more people than I could keep track of. However, I foun...

review 1: This was the first Rita Mae Brown book I had read. I was jumping in in the middle of a series. It was a little like going to a party where everyone else already knows everyone else. There were quite a lot of characters who enjoyed catching up on the news of each other. Fortunatel...

review 1: When I picked up this book it seemed like it would be from the POV of the animals. It wasn't. It was only partially from their view and their view didn't add anything to the story. The mystery was okay. I actually enjoyed the easy writing style. The characters were well written. ...
