I saw the movie years ago so decided I should read the book, which has been on my shelf for quite awhile! It was a great read - reading about the mischief Marley got up to. I was pleased Jenny got past her brief dislike of him after the baby and they didn't get rid of him! I did get a lump in my throat at the end and had a couple of tears!

I was incredibly worried that we were going to lose Nana Mama - so pleased she came right!

Not what I was expecting and quite hard subject matter.

A different story to the other David Baldacci books I've read! I would like to know what the illness was that Jack had. Lizzie's mother wasn't very kind but I'm glad she saw sense in the end.

Another great story. The characters were all really likeable. Had mystery and humour. I really like all the Andy Carpenter stories.

I did not appreciate the animals being killed and am glad that Hettie managed to save Violet! Very cute that she would take Violet home just in case! It was a shame that she lost her mother when they were just reconnecting after the loss of her sister.

A great story with quite a few laughs! I would say the ending leaves it open for another story but we'll see!

A great story! We finally learn all about Mercy and their mother. So pleased that the story had a happy ending!

Another great story in the Fox and O'Hare series! Hopefully there will be another one!

This story has it all. A great second book in a series! I see there is going to be a third so that's exciting! It has romance, humour and a bit of mystery thrown in.

A nice Christmas story with romance, quite a few giggles and a mischievous cat! Easy to read and great characters.

A nice easy read. It didn't matter that I hadn't read any other books in the Cedar Cove series. There was a couple of pages at the front with a list of some of the characters and a bit about them. A great little Christmas story with dogs involved - what could be better.

Only a handful of familiar characters from past books but still a good story.

Not a fan of the jumping back and forth in time. Good story. Didn't enjoy it as much as The Alice Network. Pleased that it all worked out for Beth in the end.

Another great story for the second book in the series - looking forward to the next book in the series. Great cast of characters who are all very likeable!

Amazing reading about these dogs nobody wanted being turned into search and rescue dogs!

Interesting point of view based on true events from teacher and young student of a British run missionary school in China which is taken over by the Japanese during WW2. Really felt a connection with the characters and felt so sad when Sprout passed away!

A really entertaining story. Not a fan of books that jump back and forth in time every chapter but it only did that until Evie disappeared fortunately. I really liked all the characters and was great to see how it all ended.

What an amazing story! I didn't like the way they took Sam from the home he'd known for 9 years, surely it could have been handled differently. Pleased for the happy ending and the bonding of Sam with his birth parents at the end.

Interesting story. I didn't like how it just ended but pleased that the story tied up loose ends. It was so sad reading about Cleo the goat! It was sad that when she moved to the city she pretty much forgot about Henry and Colette until the end, although we don't know if she ever actually made it back to see them.

I enjoyed this book more than the last book they wrote. It was good from start to finish. I little bit wordsy at the start but got easier to read quickly. Will be interested to know if they are going to write any further books together.

I didn't enjoy this story as much as most of the others in the series so far. Not sure if that's because a lot was based in Africa so he wasn't working with the normal characters until he was back in Washington.

It had a few twists and turns. I had a feeling he might go back to police work even if not in a full time basis. I'm pleased Sampson was ok, as he's a great character.

Another great murder mystery with great characters. I got a huge lump in my throat when Mercy offered to give Elvis away, even a couple of tears in my eyes! So pleased he stayed with her and her and Troy patched things up! Hopefully there will be another book in the series!

A great whodunnit with search and rescue dogs! Really kept me interested and wanting to know what happened next. It loses a star because I wasn't a fan of the ending. I was really hoping Mercy and Troy we're going to get their happy ever after! Fingers crossed it happens in the next book!
