Whose Dead, Doc?
by James M. Griffin
View in Library Catalog
book cover


I like cozies. They're easy, breezy reads that are fun to read after a long day at work. Juliette takes care of bunnies and solves mysteries in her spare time as an amateur sleuth. When a dead body ruins a birthday party she's hosting a bunny show at, the host asks her to get involved and help the cops find the killer. It wasn't going to be easy since Evelyn, the person who has killed, was disliked by everyone and had a lot of enemies. She would blackmail people. To help uncover more about Eveyln's murder, Juliette accepts a position as a judge at a local bunny competition. Evelyn was judging but since was killed, the competition was down a judge. For the most part, it's a fun and thrilling read. Some parts are hard to read if you're a hardcore animal lover like me. Not everyone in the book loves and cares about the sweet little bunnies and sometimes puts them in harm's way.

book cover


It is always an experience when we get the experience of living on the other side of the tracks. The author did an excellent job of expressing what her experience was like when she wore the robe of a patient instead of that of a doctor. She had the experience of lying in a hospital bed and watching and hearing the treatments that patients get from their medical team. She was able to experience the coldness, insensitivity, the mistakes, the delays, dealing with attitudes and the attitude of being treated as a subject, as a bed #. She saw and heard, ego, self-satisfaction, nonchalant attitude from the medical team caring for her. This was an eye opener for her and made her determine in her heart that she would not display these attitudes in her practice.

Her motif is Graceland Blue Christmas, with lots of tinsel, an aluminum tree, and enough tacky retro doodads to fill the Grand Ole Opry. But no sooner is she certain she's one-upped the trendy shop around the corner when Weezie notices things going strangely missing from her display.

This is a story about two teenage sisters living in a cult where the people are all brainwashed by a prophet and they believe in polygamy. There is also a global pandemic going on along with a little touch of fantasy splashed in. It's faced paced and held my attention. I recommend this book.
