After reading Rex Stout's début years ago and receiving this bright, smooth sequel as a birthday gift nearly as long ago, it is time to enjoy it. Nero is lazy and pompous but Archie is as intelligent as he is down to Earth and fun.

Fantastic!

Sensational!

I knew this would be an emotional, profound, mysterious, atmospheric, adventurous novel but it is written wonderfully! I am loving reading every page.

Someone who is no longer a Goodreads "friend" wrote of this book: "It is hard to have compassion for a story about rodents". No it is not, for most animal people. Love is love. Being witness to a parent protecting her family, merely wanting to survive in happiness and good health, elicits compassion and warmth from just about everybody with a soul. I tried helping orphaned mice thrice. Oh, they are so precious!

I saw this film as a child and yesterday, encountered an article about how many viewers found it scary. I have the videotape and will watch it again, after I finish reading the printed story for the first time.

This is unforgettable and eyeopening. Andrew, however needs to get a clue about cats. Selfish? They are loving, giving, family animals. There is no comparison to serial killers. A star off for that, pal and the need for an editor to do a professional onceover. However, I appreciate that this is about getting the truth of a loss we cared about since 1981 to the public. He unveiled the facts as an officer would.

I don't know how hoardes of Canadians and worldwide readers have not flocked to this free PDF! When I was little, Barbara Stoppel was killed in our city. The wrong man passing through town for a day was tried in court thrice, in the worst bunch of coincidences that we wouldn't believe if they were made-up. He plead 20 years for the case report to be read seriously. The results are authored by the officer who did!

Haunting right from the beginning. You know how aghast and depressed our reactions are to the errors of judgement made on the Titanic's disaster? That is how I feel reading about the Winnipeg police's decisions in Barbara Stoppel's and Candace Derksen's murders. Both girls were alive at first!
Both could have been saved, if people had acted as prudently as possible! I did not know these details as a kid in 1981.

When I was little in 1981, a 16 year-old named Barbara Stoppel was murdered at a donut shop job in Winnipeg. In honour of her, it became against the law for youths to work late alone after a certain hour. I had never heard of kids a little older than me, murdered in our city. In 1984, Candace Derksen was murdered and she has not been forgotten either. Now that I am grown-up I am acquainting both of their stories.

Only sleeping is interrupting the turning of these fascinating pages of Jann Arden's autobiography. She dubbed it a memoir but it chronologically takes us through the story of her childhood from the earliest memories onward, more completely than I have ever seen.

Wow, what a range of emotions herein for Jann's readers. I think I am only entering the difficult descriptions. Prior to that, every little story Jann imparted was delightfully creative. Then she had me in stitches, laughing aloud in the real sense of that expression. My favourite hilarious line is about her grade 2 class making Eskimo art. A pupil inexplicably made an unrelated candy cane "and called it a day"!

This is fantastic! I knew Jann Arden Richard's humour would be divine and wanted to know her life and career stories too. Reading her communicating style is a pleasure. These pages will breeze by quickly. I am sorry her parents are gone now, like my own dearest Mom. I was proud to witness Jann's moment upon induction into Canada's Hall Of Fame during the Juno Awards this spring. I have nearly all of her albums.

I am breezing through this not so much mystery but emotionally intense story faster than I thought. How unusual that Tess Gerritsen's first novel, a medical thriller far from what I read, is written better and appeals to me more than her recent paranormal hardcover, "The Shape Of Night". I hope these situations are untrue. Kelsey Grammar stars in a new film about politics behind organ recipient choices and chains.

Ron & I had a lovely anniversary. We will both catch up on our evening reading now. :)

Happy anniversary for Ron & I today! Sincerely, Carolyn.

I like it and am grooving along smoothly, to William Murdoch's first story! I look forward to hearing how much Kerri and Shirin are enjoying this.

We miss you, our dearests Spirit & Marigold. Two of our children ascended with my Mom, too soon.

Surprisingly, disappointly tedious! This is my milieu. I know and have more confidence in it than the authoress. It is geared to far too redundantly convincing skeptics. It is not as consoling or revealing as promised.

We lost our little Marigold to a kidney disese-related emergency 1 month ago. Our dearest Spirit also ascended at home, from stomach cancer in January. He would be 17: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SPIRIT!

I am not as impressed as I imagined being, although I bought this in 2003 to 2005. I know and am immeasurably more confident and comfortable about the paranormal than the authoress is. I thought she was going to leave me breathless with encouragement and awe. To be fair, perhaps her upcoming chapters will achieve that.

We miss you with all of our hearts, our precious Spirit & Marigold! Spirit ascended te the afterlife from home (they all do as per our beliefs in natural passing) on January 14. Our young Marigold daughter cat ascended shockingly soon after our son cat, only 3 weeks ago today. A year ago it was my dear Mom in January. The afterlife has crowded too fast. We need all our loved-ones who are left to be here with us.

I bought this and animal communication books when my elderly childhood cat ascended in 2003 but read few. The next year baby Spirit came into our lives. We lost him to cancer in January. Can you imagine? Our childhood cat, then Spirit & McCartney with me all my life! McCartney is going strong.

Our Marigold, the beauty in my photo, ascended 3 weeks ago from oxygen issues of kidney disease! She was even younger!
