courtesy of my friend Richard. He'll read a good book and then share before he has to take it back to the local library. This one, New Tricks, was about a dog - obviously - but it was an excellent mystery. I mean, I had my suspicions, but there were a lot of red herrings. The ending was a surprise - and it ended happily ever after for the humans (well, except for the dead ones) and the dogs, so that was fine by me. Apparently the author has several other dog mysteries out there, so I am going to check them out. Light reading, but well written and funny! The main character and his friend compete with one another in song-talking, as they call it - speaking to one another in song lyrics as conversation. For example, I stayed up late trying to finish the book, but my head grew heavy and my sight grew dim; I had to stop for the night. You know, song-talking. Ha!
